[OSGeo Africa] Earthquake data

[Sibonelo Dlamini]

True Tim.

USGS is got but I don't know about the scale and accuracy to be specific in
the area of interest in South Africa. I suggest checking out with the
Council of Geoscience CGS for derailed . They are a data custodian of that
information.

Best regards
