Colleagues
Perhaps this is something to be discussed at the COV meeting but the first thought I have on this proposal is how it relates to the Smithsonian GVP which presents a good deal of information on volcanoes around the globe and their eruption history.

VOGRIPA Forum at COV in Tenerife

Dear colleagues,
To those of you attending the forthcoming Cities on Volcanoes meeting in Tenerife at the end of the month, I would like to take this opportunity to invite you to a forum taking place on Friday 4 June regarding the VOGRIPA project being coordinated by myself and Steve Sparks from the University of Bristol.
The aim of VOGRIPA is to create a global database of volcanic eruptions including data on both hazards and risk, which will be publically accessible and contributable. The database development is progressing such that it should be publishable by the end of the year, therefore your input at this stage is vital in making the database as comprehensive and useful as possible. Participants are invited to suggest how they might make use of such a database, the data they would find most useful, and therefore actively contribute to creating a tool that would be useful for volcanologists around the world.
The forum will be held on Friday 4 June from 14.00-15.00 in the Retama Hall.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Dr Sian Crosweller
