You will find the details and information below and on the webpage: https://volcanbox.wordpress.com/courses/. Bests Regards, Adelina Geyer Joan Martà ----------------------------- TRAINING COURSE FOR VOLCANBOX: a systematic methodology and e-tools set to conduct long- and short-term volcanic hazard assessment *Coordinator:* Dr. Joan Marti *Dates:* September 23-27, 2019 *Place: *Technological Center of Vilanova i La Geltrú, Technical University of Catalonia, Rambla de l'Exposició, 24, 08800 Vilanova i la Geltrú, (Barcelona, Spain) https://www.upc.edu/sct/en/centre_7_centro-tecnologico-vilanova-geltru.html *Maximum number of participants:* 20 *Registration fee: *250 euros * Pre-registration:* Those interested in attending the course should pre-register by sending an email to joan.marti@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, *before March 15th, 2019* *Scope:* This is a training course on the use of VOLCANBOX. VOLCANBOX is a specific methodology (see Marti, 2017) and a set of e-tools ( Felpeto et al., 2010; Sobradelo et al 2013, 2014; Bartolini et al., 2013; 2018; Scaini et al 2014) to conduct long- and short-term volcanic hazard assessment which were developed as part of the VeTOOLS project, funded by Civil Protection Unit of the European Union, by the Group of Volcanology of Barcelona (CSIC, Spain). VOLCANBOX consists of an integrated software multi-platform specially designed to assess volcanic hazard, as well as assess and manage volcanic risk. This system facilitates the interaction and cooperation between scientists and Civil Protection Agencies in order to share, unify, and exchange procedures, methodologies and technologies to effectively reduce the impacts of volcanic disasters by improving assessment and management of volcanic risk. For this reason, this course is addressed to post-graduate, doctorate and post-doctorate students, members of volcano observatories, and Civil Protection experts interested or working on volcanic hazard assessment and management of volcanic crisis. The course will offer a description of the general concepts and methodologies that are behind VOLCANBOX and will train participants in the use of the different tools that it contains, offering some examples on their use and on the limits of its applicability. *Preliminary program:* *Monday, September 23, 2019* *Introduction to the methodology for conducting long- and shortâ??term volcanic hazard assessment *Introduction to the VOLCANBOX platform and its tools *Tuesday, September 24, 2019* *Spatial analysis.
