The answer is Modiified Mercalli Intensity Scale. This seismic device is used to measure the intensity of the earthqauke and allows seismologists to determin the probable damage caused by the eathquake. The scale often used Roman Numerals to measure the intensity of the earthqauke and based it from the damage caused by the earthquake on that specific place.
