The magnitude 5.6 earthquake occurred on October 10, 2025, 43 km southeast of Severo-Kuril'sk, Russia, with an epicenter at latitude 50.3802 and longitude 156.5204. It impacted an estimated 939 people within a 50km radius.

Use Cases

• Map the earthquake's epicenter and affected area based on the provided latitude, longitude, and depth.
• Estimate population exposure for disaster response planning based on the reported impact on 939 people within 50km.
• Analyze seismic event characteristics for risk modeling based on the recorded magnitude and depth.

Strengths

• Provides precise geographic coordinates (lat 50.3802, lon 156.5204) and depth (76.347 km) for the epicenter.
• Includes a specific impact metric, estimating 939 people affected within a 50km radius.
• Sourced from WFP's operational Automated Disaster Analysis and Mapping (ADAM) system.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality and full attribute fields require manual inspection after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for statistical analysis.
• Data reflects a single event from a specific date (2025-10-10), limiting temporal scope.
