According to preliminary data, the quake was located at a very shallow depth of 7 km. Shallow earthquakes are felt more strongly than deeper ones as they are closer to the surface. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report. A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 4.5 earthquake as well. Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter. Weak shaking might have been felt in Taitung City (pop. 109,600) located 55 km from the epicenter. Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Lugu (pop. 19,600) located 80 km from the epicenter, Yujing (pop. 16,600) 87 km away, Puli (pop. 86,400) 89 km away, Hualien City (pop. 350,500) 89 km away, Douliu (pop. 104,700) 94 km away, Nantou City (pop. 105,700) 100 km away, and Zhongxing New Village (pop. 25,500) 102 km away.
