IRIS is an Educational Partner on the InSight Mission, with the goal of engaging students with seismic data from Mars. As the data is released, classrooms will be able to stream Martian seismic data using IRIS tools, allowing students to watch for marsquakes and meteorite impacts with us!

Directed and narrated by Dr. Tammy Bravo, seismologist, IRIS

Not only an app for seismic data, but includes detailed map links to Martian:
This animation looks at a basic physical comparison of the Earth with our closest neighbor, Mars. But why would we make an animation about Mars? The reason we did it is because NASA is going to put a seismograph on Mars on the next InSight mission. We look forward to being able to "see" beneath the surface using earthquake signals, if there are any.
