What this feed is

Hourly reads of the USGS FDSN GeoJSON API, capped at 50 events. Events outside the query box are dropped. A quiet window comes back as an empty list, not an error.

Where it applies

8°N to 23°N and 75°W to 58°W. This is a Caribbean subset of USGS, not the global earthquake catalog.

Who it is for

Hazard monitors that want a cited earthquake feed rather than a rewritten news brief.
