AGU Session V33: Volcano Databases: (Pre)Serving the Past and Present for the Future
From: Sian Crosweller sian.crosweller@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
************************************************************************************************************
Dear all,
We would like to draw your attention to the following session at the AGU Fall meeting in December. We will have invited talks from Shinji Takarada (representing GSJ), Eisuke Fujita (NIED Network), Cheryl Cameron (AVO’s GeoDIVA) and Jacopo Selva (INGV’s DIVO). We would now like to encourage submission from others involved in the use of volcanic databases from a range of backgrounds including volcano observatories, the (re)insurance industry, and academic institutions. Please note that the deadline for abstract submission is 3rd September.
Fall AGU Session V33
Volcano Databases: (Pre)Serving the Past and Present for the Future
Keywords: Volcano monitoring, Volcanic hazards and risks, Data management
Geologic, geophysical, and geochemical data on volcanoes provide a foundation for understanding current and future volcanic activity. Information on impacts and demographics enable risk assessment as well. But because these data are collected by many individuals or observatories, formats and conventions vary widely and it is a challenge to make these data useful for others. Fortunately, technological tools for managing large datasets are improving daily. Several international initiatives now offer platforms for sharing data so that they might be studied for general lessons beyond the original intent of the data collection. This session is a forum for updates and discussion of local, national and international initiatives in volcano data management. We invite contributions from all aspects and efforts of large-scale volcano data management from individuals, observatories, public and private institutions, as well as government and non-government agencies.
