The 'Earthquake Network’ (EQN) is an app which detects earthquakes by creating an ad-hoc network of smartphone's accelerometer sensors and provides early warnings of earthquakes via the same smartphone app. The EMSC (Euro-Mediterranean Seismological Centre) and the University of Bergamo conducted an online survey, following an earthquake of magnitude M8 on 2019-05-26 07:41:13.6 UTC in Northern Peru with epicentre (5.81S, 75.27W). This survey targeted EQN users in the felt area of the earthquakes and was conducted from 2019-07-23 to 2019-08-18. It aimed at assessing users’ understanding and reaction to the EQN early warning for this specific earthquake. The questionnaire was written in Spanish since it is the most commonly spoken language in the studied area. Individuals who use the app in Spanish were invited to complete the survey via an advertisement on the Earthquake Network app. A PDF containing the questionnaire and the relationship between the questions is included in this archive. 3805 respondents took the survey, including 2 719 that were actually in the area at the time. The analysis Results derived from this dataset will be included as part of a submitted Science article (Bossu et al. '“Shaking in 5 seconds!” A Voluntary Smartphone-based Earthquake Early Warning System', 2021) to show that respondents received notifications from the Earthquake Network App before feeling the shaking but also that many did not immediately “drop, hold and cover' and were too intent on warning those close to them of the impending danger. All respondents consented that their data could be used for research purposes. The EMSC and University of Bergamo made sure not to collect or diffuse personal data. The dataset is a zip-file that contains the questionnaire responses as a comma-separated text file (csv) and a pdf containing a representation of the questionnaire that was presented to respondents.
