Earthquake Notification Service
The Earthquake Notification Service (ENS) sends free automated notifications when earthquakes happen in your area or anywhere in the world.
You customize ENS to report based on where and how large the earthquake is. That might be:
- Large earthquakes anywhere in the world,
- Moderate earthquakes in the U.S., or
- Earthquakes of any size near you.
Users can have multiple email addresses. ENS can also text your cell phone if your carrier
supports email-to-text functionality.
All ENS notifications give a short text summary plus a link to the full product.
