Not QGIS 4 ready Active
Not yet — the latest version declares max QGIS version 3.99.0, so it is not offered to QGIS 4 users.
Visualize Global CMT focal mechanisms as SVG beachballs in QGIS. Supports psmeca, psvelomeca, CMTSOLUTION, and Full format files.
About
This plugin automates the process of parsing Global CMT text files, calculating Mw from moment tensor components, and creating georeferenced focal mechanism symbols (beachballs) as SVG layers. Ideal for seismologists and geophysicists.
