A GeoRSS client library for the IGN Sismologia feed.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and a clear use case for earthquake-aware applications. The Apache-2.0 license poses no restrictions. Install it if you need to integrate IGN earthquake data into a Python application.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.11 or later.
- Low install friction with just two runtime dependencies.
- Active maintenance as of late July 2026, marked Production/Stable, and supports current Python versions (3.11–3.14).

What it is and what it does
This library wraps the Instituto Geográfico Nacional Sismología (IGN) earthquake feed as a GeoRSS client, letting you query earthquake events by location and magnitude. You instantiate a feed object with home coordinates and optional filters (radius in kilometers, minimum magnitude), then call `update()` to fetch the latest data. The library returns a status code and a list of feed entries, each populated with geometry, coordinates, magnitude, region, published date, and other earthquake metadata.
The package includes a Feed Manager that tracks changes across updates—reporting new events, updates to existing events, and removed entries. It maintains timestamps of the last successful update and the latest data timestamp, useful for applications that need to handle intermittent feed failures or process only genuinely new events. Dependencies are minimal (georss_client and dateparser), and the library is actively maintained for modern Python versions.
Use it for
- Home automation systems that trigger alerts when earthquakes occur within a specified radius of a user's location.
- Seismic monitoring dashboards that display recent earthquakes above a certain magnitude threshold for a geographic region.
- Emergency response applications that need to track earthquake events and their properties for incident management.
- Data collection pipelines that periodically fetch and archive earthquake events for analysis or research.
- Mobile or web apps that show users earthquake activity near their home or workplace with distance and magnitude details.
