Submission + - Counting earthquakes with mrtg
jonfr writes: "I have always be interested in earthquakes. Today I have my own sensor up and running and I do monitor earthquakes trough the internet from the web pages of USGS, EMSC and IMO (Icelandic Met Office) to see what is going on in earthquakes in Iceland, where I live. But I want to do more. I want to know how many earthquakes there are on day to day basic and over the whole year. As I cannot get this static (how many earthquakes, sizes, etc) easy from USGS or EMSC for instance, but also IMO. I also want to know the daily change in earthquake numbers, in the case of big event. I want to use mrtg to do this, as it software that can already do this if properly configured. However, I am no good in scripting so I have no idea how to start or what to do. I have been trying to modified scripts that I have found on the internet but nothing works. Is anyone on slashdot.org that can help me write an script for mrtg to count earthquakes ?"
