One way GIS is used, is to plot and monitor where earthquakes are occurring on earth, as well as their size. Click here to view a live map of earthquakes. Another way GIS is used, is to monitor the current population on earth, and where people are being born or dying. Click here to view a live map of births and deaths.

i think the earthquake is useful because it can tell people which areas have the most earthquakes so for example if someone is moving to USA he goes to a place where there is no earthquakes and it can also help scientist identify the broken crusts of earth and they can also identify the most places struck by earthquakes. some features in the gis of people who are born and dead are that they can tell you which country had someone born or dead another thing is that it says the amount of population and it also can tell you when you opened the website so maybe you wanted to count the estimated births and deaths in 1 minute you can identify that

1.it is helpful to get information on where earthquakes take place because you can know if there is an earthquake nearby and so they can build buildings that are earthquake proof. 2.I notice it tells the exact place of where it is, there is always a death or a birth happening each second and I also noticed that it shows the flag of the country when ever a birth or death is happening

1. Knowing when an earthquake is taking place is helpful because the ambulance can know where the earthquake happened so they will go and help the people injured.

1: So that scientists can learn more about things such as plate tectonics. And so that engineers can improve their building designs (like making earthquake-resistant buildings).

1.First it will help family members who have another member living in the same place as the earthquake, it will help them know if it was harmful or no.It will also help explorers record the information taken.
