Estimating the likelihood of an earthquake

Earthquakes are a powerful force of nature, but nature isn’t always responsible for causing earthquakes. Some earthquakes are man-made. A new type of 3D software can now help estimate the likelihood of these man-made earthquakes. We go inside the lab at San Antonio’s Southwest Research Institute to learn more.
