INSTRUCTOR NOTE:

Look at the results from the USGS query at http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/4.5_week.geojson to see what the data looks like. The left column of this table has some of the data you will find in the JSON that you get back from the USGS website. What do you think these data values represent? If you don't know just give it your best guess. Look at the formatted JSON in a website like jsonprettyprint.com and fill in the table with a description of what you think the parameter is for, in your own words. You can compare your answers to the GeoJSON documentation.
