This interactive visualization displays earthquake activity from the 2019 Ridgecrest sequence, plotting each event by time and latitude while encoding magnitude through circle size and fault type via color. Built with the Vega-Lite API, it filters the USGS-derived dataset to include only earthquakes with low RMS values and specific geographic boundaries, rendering them as semi-transparent circles. The visualization uses d3 to fetch and parse the CSV data, while Vega-Lite's declarative encoding handles the mapping of data fields to visual channels, with tooltips revealing depth and magnitude details.
