ADAM Earthquake Impact Analysis: Indonesia, November 2025

Two earthquakes, magnitudes 5.4 and 5.8, struck Indonesia on November 20, 2025, impacting over 131,000 people within 50km of their epicenters. The dataset provides geospatial and socio-economic impact analysis from the World Food Programme's Automated Disaster Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) system. It is designed for rapid assessment following sudden-onset humanitarian emergencies.

Use Cases

• Estimating immediate humanitarian needs based on affected population counts within a 50km radius.
• Mapping disaster epicenters and intensity for situational awareness using provided latitude and longitude coordinates.
• Prioritizing emergency response areas by comparing earthquake magnitude, depth, and population impact metrics.

Strengths

• Provides specific impact metrics, including a precise affected population count of 131,020 people for one event.
• Contains detailed seismic parameters (magnitude, depth, coordinates) for two distinct earthquakes.
• Sourced from an operational UN agency (WFP) system designed for emergency analysis.

Limitations

• Column names and full data schema are unknown, limiting detailed analysis.
• Dataset size and row counts are not provided across all sources.
• Metadata is sparse, with no author details and conflicting duplicate entries for the same event ID.
