The quake had a shallow depth of 45 km (28 mi) and was felt by many near the epicenter. The shallow depth of the quake caused it to be felt more strongly near the epicenter than a deeper quake of similar magnitude would.Quake Data | Interactive map | Seismograms | User reports | Aftershocks | Earlier quakes here | Quakes in Peru | Quakes in Chile | Arequipa | Departamento de Moquegua | PunoHint: Click on the image to see different maps of this quake!Strong magnitude 5.2 earthquake at 45 km depth11 Oct 13:46 UTC: First to report: VolcanoDiscovery after 4 minutes.11 Oct 13:49: Now using data updates from GFZ...

The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 5.2 earthquake as well. A third agency, the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ), reported the same quake at magnitude 5.2.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.Weak shaking might have been felt in La Deheza (pop. 460) located 26 km from the epicenter, Camana (pop. 16,400) 28 km away, Islay (Matarani) (pop. 4,800) 49 km away, El Pedregal (pop. 20,100) 53 km away, Mollendo (pop. 29,000) 59 km away, Jacobo Hunter (pop. 46,100) 105 km away, Ciudad Satelite (pop. 76,400) 108 km away, Arequipa (pop. 1,008,300) 108 km away, and Selva Alegre (pop. 72,700) 110 km away.VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.Read more about the MMI scale!Number of reports by intensityShaking intensityNumber of reportsMin-Max distance from epicenter (*)Average distance (*)I: Not felt1130–130 km (81–81 mi)130 km (81 mi)III: Weak shaking2124–129 km (77–80 mi)127 km (79 mi)IV: Light shaking4127–134 km (79–83 mi)129 km (80 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (10 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.Get the Android appI didn't feel itI felt this quakeIf you were near the epicenter and felt it, please share your experience and submit a short "I felt it" report!
