Recently, the investigation of the records of past earthquakes in Brazil allows us to establish macrosseismic information derived from the study of the historical seismicity, such as earthquakes catalogues and intensity data point’s collections. All the technological advances associated with the growth of both information and communication, allows the increased accessibility to the population, enabling the highest record of reports of earthquakes and the effects in a particular locality. This paper presents a contribution to the construction of the Brazilian Macrosseismic Intensity Map, using information shared through digital means.
