SSGI - Solar System Geometry Index

Solar System Geometry Index (SSGI)

The Solar System Geomtry Index (SSGI) is the computation of a dataset for a specific time-frame of values given to specific geometric positions of the planets, the Moon and the Sun. From these values three more aspects are derived: a charge, a negativity and a mass. These values are then used as an indicator for seismic activity on Earth. A convergence of increased values may indicate larger seismic activity.

After three years of observations, it became clear that some planetary geometry in the Solar System clearly tends to cause a seismic increase, while other geometry does not. From these observations a model was derived and added as an algorithm to the software program Solpage.

Development of the SSGI started in July 2017. A basic algorithm was completed within two weeks. Since then, it has been revised several times. The algorithm has been tested on large earthquakes in the past and shows obvious peaks shortly before a large earthquake occurred.

Please keep in mind that although the values given to specific geometry results in a total index ranging from 0 to 10, this is unrelated to any earthquake magnitude scale.

Note: As of 12 June 2018 the SSGI chart algorithm has been revised and is now at version 4.5.
