# How to Build Earthquake Dashboards with Claude

Claude turns raw seismic data into actionable intelligence by analyzing earthquake patterns, comparing current activity against historical baselines for specific regions, and reasoning through what the numbers mean for safety and operations. It identifies geographic clusters, flags unusual activity levels, calculates proximity to population centers, and helps you understand whether a given week of seismic events represents normal background activity or something that warrants closer attention and possible response.

## Setup

claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter: claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp
2. Ask Claude: "Get recent earthquakes above magnitude 4.5 using earthquake-monitor"
3. Claude returns significant seismic events with full details
4. Ask: "Generate a React component that displays these events in a dashboard table"

## Example Prompt

```
Get recent significant earthquakes and help me design a monitoring dashboard layout. I need magnitude, location, depth, and time columns with color coding by severity.
```

## Tips

- Define magnitude thresholds that match your organization's alert levels
- Ask Claude to help set up periodic polling logic for real-time updates
- Include distance calculations from your facilities for proximity-based alerts
