It is called the epicenter.
The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called "intensity".
The location on the surface directly above the earthquake focus is called the epicenter.
The amount of shaking produced by an earthquake at a given location is called the intensity. It is measured on the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale, which quantifies the level of shaking experienced by people and structures during an earthquake.
The location in the center of a map is often referred to as the "map center" or the "center point." It is where the horizontal and vertical axes intersect, indicating the point of balance within the map.
The point on the Earth's surface directly above the earthquake's origin is called the "epicenter." It is the location where seismic waves radiate outwards from the earthquake's focus (or hypocenter) beneath the surface.

A major earthquake that has happened in the past is often referred to as a seismic event or a historic earthquake. The specific location where the earthquake occurred is known as the earthquake's epicenter.
Location on a map is given by a reference number for a grid on the map. Often in degrees of latitude and longitude but also in arbitrary units printed onto the map. The units are printed from left to right, called eastings, and bottom to top, called northings.
The scale that rates earthquake damage at a particular location is called the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale. It measures the intensity of shaking and resulting damage felt at a specific location during an earthquake, rather than the earthquake's magnitude.
The location on Earth's surface directly above the earthquake source is called the "epicenter." This is where the seismic waves originate and where the shaking is typically most severe.
