1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 From: Danielle Charlton <danielle.charlton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Dear colleagues, We are pleased to invite you to submit an abstract to our session and register for a pre-conference workshop taking place at Cities on Volcanoes 11, Heraklion, Crete, 23-27 May 2020. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *S3.4. State of the Volcanic Hazard Map/Crisis and scenario mapping: http://bit.ly/MapSessionCOV11 <https://bit.ly/MapSessionCOV11?fbclid=IwAR2RfCy77NLptZRWVhmwnx_TkofgfWrsBuhaO1Dta4cOSr4czc9DMWK54EY>* *Conveners: Danielle Charlton, Jan Lindsay, Sarah Ogburn, Graham Leonard, Mary Anne Thompson, and Eliza Calder.* *Description:* Volcanic hazard maps are visual, spatial depictions of the areas that could be potentially impacted by volcanic phenomena. They can represent a common reference point for discussion and mitigation of volcanic risk when developed, communicated, and used appropriately, as they put all parties quite literally â??on the same pageâ?? of hazard information. Although most volcanic hazard maps show similar types of content, such as hazard footprints, they vary greatly in input data, communication style, appearance, visual design and their purpose. Hazard maps used to communicate during volcanic activity sometimes vary from those used to produce during quiescence. These maps, known as crisis or short term maps, are crucial visual communication tools used within a wide variety of hazards (e.g. wildfires, earthquakes, flooding) and have been developed for recent volcanic events (e.g. Kilauea, Fuego). The hazard areas used on these maps have been informed by real time field data or based on historical scenarios. They need to be compiled, designed and updated rapidly in order to meet the demands and expectations of many different users. Additional information, such as evacuation centres, are also often used alongside hazard data, meaning there are unique design challenges. This session welcomes discussion around the development, use and effectiveness of all volcanic hazard maps. However, we encourage submissions that address techniques and frameworks used to develop rapid maps during a volcanic crisis and those willing to share their experiences regarding how hazard maps are interpreted and used by diverse audiences during volcanic activity. *The deadline for submitting abstracts is Monday, 25 January 2020.* Details for submission can be found at: https://pcoconvin.eventsair.com/volcanoes11/abstracts ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *Pre-conference workshop 1 (22 May): http://bit.ly/MapWorkshopCOV11 <https://bit.ly/MapWorkshopCOV11?fbclid=IwAR0ozH_HmSfr2LoLaX3ZJ7K90hvJfdkLqi3laZbTJrQuw9gz1gMGZB32CvQ>* *State of the Hazard Map 4: Five-Year Review* *On behalf of the Hazard Mapping Working Group part of the IAVCEI Commission on Hazard and Risk* *Workshop Description:* The IAVCEI Commission of Volcanic Hazard and Risk has a working group dedicated to hazard mapping. The hazard mapping working group held its first workshop at COV8 (State of the Hazard Map 1), second at COV9 (State of the Hazard Map 2), and third at the IAVCEI meeting in 2017. We propose to host a fourth meeting at COV11. The workshop will continue the broad aims of the earlier meetings, namely to work towards reviewing IAVCEI-endorsed considerations document for volcanic hazard map generation which will be in its final draft stages. The workshop will bring together people from around the world working on volcanic hazard maps, and will have three primary aims: 1) to discuss and modify the draft Considerations document; 2) discuss options for finalizing, and disseminating the Considerations document; and 3) to discuss new approaches and experiences regarding how hazard maps are created, interpreted and used by different groups. In line with previous working group events, a key philosophy of this workshop is that participants will be encouraged to bring their experience to the table for discussion, so that the workshop format will be more about exchange of knowledge rather than instruction about particular techniques. *Book a place:* People wishing to register are encouraged to do no later than January 31st, 2020, since the maximum of 30 participants cannot be exceeded. No additional fee applies for attendance to the Workshop. If you wish to participate please contact Danielle Charlton at danielle.charlton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ** We have noticed that there are multiple communication themed workshops on the same day (22nd May). Happy to have people coming in and out for the day and we will share the workshop notes afterwards, just let us know how you would like to be involved.** ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 ============================================================== Volcano Listserv is a collaborative venture among Arizona State University (ASU), Portland State University (PSU), the Global Volcanism Program (GVP) of the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, and the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior (IAVCEI).
