There's a lot happening around you — you just don't always hear about it in time. Earth Watch lets you watch any place on Earth and tells you when natural events or hazards happen nearby.
Earth Alerts near you, and the people you care about.
City, neighborhood, address, landmark, or coordinates — we're forgiving. Pick the radius you want to watch: 50, 100, 250, or 500 miles.
Home. Work. Where the kids go to school. Where your parents live. Anywhere you travel. Each place gets watched independently.
When a natural event or hazard happens near one of your places — earthquake, severe weather, advisory — you'll see an Alert. So you hear about it in time.
Earth Watch pulls live data from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the U.S. National Weather Service — the same sources used by professionals and emergency responders. No noise, no clickbait. Just the events that actually matter near the places you care about.

Type any place — Eiffel Tower, your home address, a favorite hike, the ZIP code where your daughter lives. Pick the radius you want to watch: 50, 100, 250, or 500 miles. Your address is safe — we never share it.
Home, family in Hilo, the cousin in San Juan, a trip to D.C. next month. Each entry gets watched independently — different radius, different alerts. Tap any place to see what's happening there right now.
Tap a place to see its watch radius on the map and any active Earth events inside it. "No active Earth events" is a perfectly good answer — and it means we're still watching for new information.
Email and a password — that's it. No social login, no third-party tracking. You stay signed in automatically across devices, so the next time you open Earth Watch your places are right where you left them.
Or just try it now — open it in your browser:
Earth Watch is a web app — it installs in one tap, with no app store needed. Once installed, it has its own icon on your home screen and runs full-screen, just like any other app.
The Earth Watch icon will appear on your home screen next to your other apps. Tap it any time to launch.
Some versions of Chrome show an automatic install banner at the bottom of the page — you can use that instead if you'd like.
