Earthquake danger zones around the world r/MapPorn
Open in ArcGIS Desktop Metadata Description Faults are where two pieces of Earth's crust meet and are associated with movement. Sometimes they move suddenly, generating an earthquake. According to the USGS, there are several types of faults, characterized by how the two pieces are moving relative to each other:
Hayward Fault's nightmare scenario
The World Fault Line Map shows the major fault lines across the globe. The earth is constantly moving because of which there is a continuous movement of the rocks. This movement of the rocks creates fractures or discontinuity which is better known as a fault.
