Kaikoura Earthquake Shakemap Available
What is a ShakeMap? ShakeMap is a product of the U.S. Geological Survey Earthquake Hazards Program in conjunction with regional seismic network operators.
I have just updated our archived shakemap for the 2016 Kaikoura Earthquake and it is available as a polygon feature layer (dissolved by MMI Grid Code) for you to use for your web maps, apps, and spatial analysis.
To add it to your web map, just search in ArcGIS Online for tag 'KaikouraEQ' or '1000778i'.
