Why these cameras were matched

TubeTraveler searched its public camera directory within 150 km of the reported location for this event type and found 1 camera with usable coordinates. The closest of them, Himalaya Live Webcam - Annapurna Base Camp in Annapurna, is about 96 km away. Ranking also accounts for camera type — city view views score higher for earthquake. Distance is measured from the coordinates the reporting agency published, so it describes proximity rather than line of sight.

What the cameras may show

Depending on the camera you open, you may be able to see general weather, visibility and traffic across the city. What is visible changes with daylight, weather and where each camera happens to point.

What the cameras cannot confirm

These streams cannot be used to establish the scale of any damage, injuries, casualties or the condition of anyone involved, whether an official evacuation or alert is in force, anything happening outside the camera’s field of view, and the intensity of shaking at any particular address. There is also no guarantee that the event itself is visible from any of these cameras — a stream may be pointing elsewhere, be delayed, or be showing an ordinary day in a place that is otherwise affected.
