Why it's listed only. Listed only: Raspberry Shake's data license does not allow redistributing its digital data through a service like ours, so we link to it instead of proxying it. Source

Notes. Not connected: the Raspberry Shake license forbids redistributing their data or integrating it into a back-end app, so we do not proxy it. Use their own portal or ObsPy directly. Max 24 h of data per request; 5 requests/s or 30/min; slower after 200 MB per IP. Digital redistribution not allowed. Cite DOI:10.7914/SN/AM.

Seismometers near a place

Free for hobby, school and research use; commercial by quoteListed

Find active Raspberry Shake citizen seismometers near a latitude/longitude (FDSN station service). Query the provider directly: their license forbids proxying.

Inputs

Name	Type	Description
`latitude`required	number
`longitude`required	number
`maxradius`required	number	Degrees
`level`	string	one of: station, channel; default: "station"

Example output

Provider returns FDSN station text: network, station code, latitude, longitude, elevation, site name, start/end time.
