The latest earthquake in Indonesia with a magnitude of 6.2 shook Jember

Modified Mercalli Intensity is referred to as MMI.

According to the official website of the BMKG, the Mercalli scale is a metric for determining how powerful an earthquake is.

Giuseppe Mercalli, an Italian volcanologist, developed this device in 1902.

Based on information from those who survived the earthquake, as well as by examining and contrasting the extent of the earthquake's destruction, the Mercalli scale is divided into 12 fractions.

The Mercalli scale is less accurate and more arbitrary than other methods for determining earthquake magnitude.
