Triangulation – Where is the epicenter Triangulation – Where is the epicenter located?located?
This map shows how the epicenter of the Loma Prieta earthquake was determined using data from three seismic stations. The seismogram at Eureka, CA indicated that the epicenter was 478 km away (red circle). The green circle represents the distance of the epicenter (624 km) from Las Vegas. The blue circle represents the distance of the epicenter (702 km) from Elko, NV. The epicenter is determined by the intersection of all three circles near Santa Cruz, CA. This triangulation technique requires data from at least three seismic stations in order to determine the epicenter.

The seismogram in Pusan, Korea indicated that the epicenter was 549 km away (red circle). The green circle represents the distance of the epicenter (435 km) from Tokyo. The blue circle represents the distance of the epicenter (697 km) from Akita, Japan. The epicenter is determined by the intersection of all three circles in Kobe. This triangulation technique requires data from at least three seismic stations in order to determine the epicenter.
