December 18, 2025 earthquake data from the Russian Federation, detailing a magnitude 5.9 event. The dataset, produced by the WFP's Automated Disaster Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) system, includes geospatial coordinates and reports an impact on 186 people within 50km of the epicenter. It was last updated on May 21, 2026.

Use Cases

• Map the earthquake's impact zone based on the provided epicenter coordinates and 50km radius.
• Analyze the relationship between earthquake magnitude, depth, and population impact for this specific event.
• Integrate this event data into broader historical seismic risk models for the Kamchatka region.

Strengths

• Includes specific event details: magnitude 5.9, depth of 65.905 km, and coordinates (52.9652, 159.6969).
• Quantifies human impact with a specific figure: 186 people affected within 50km.
• Sourced from an operational humanitarian analysis system (WFP ADAM).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to a single, specific event.
