Why is your contribution important?

Your observations can help improve earthquake response and also contribute to scientific knowledge. Observations (including questionnaires, pictures, etc.) can provide valuable in-situ constraints on earthquake effects and, in the long term, improve the performance of our models of earthquake impact.
