I agree with Rodney—the Smithsonian’s GVP has been the standard
repository for global volcano data for over 30 years. Better to partner with
them than to develop a competing database. Jonathan Fink Arizona State University From: VOLCANO

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 =============================================== ==============================================================
