2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Danielle Charlton <danielle.charlton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The IAVCEI Commission for Hazard & Risk is hosting online workshops on the *29/30* *September 2020* to share and discuss a *new web-hosted Volcanic Hazard Map Database* with the wider volcano community. This database is searchable through an online interface. Its purpose is to serve as a resource for hazard mappers to search and explore the range of existing volcanic hazard maps. It shows the diversity of existing volcanic hazard maps, classifies those maps so they can be searched and sorted, and contains detailed metadata about the map design. It includes examples from volcanoes around the world, some of which have changed through time, have been presented in a variety of formats (e.g., posters, park signs, interactive web-maps, inserts in hazard assessments), and authored by both official (e.g. observatories or local governments) and unofficial sources (e.g. journal articles). This two-hour workshop will be broken down into three parts: 1. an introduction to the hazard mapping working group, the sourcebook and the database; 2. a demonstration of the databaseâ??s functionality and webpage structure and 3. a question and feedback session. The same workshop will be held twice. Please join us by* registering* for one of the sessions below. *The same workshop will be held twice to accommodate time zones, and both will be in English.* We welcome anyone who has an interest in volcanic hazard mapping to join us online, share ideas and provide feedback on any of the initiatives presented. ----------------------------- *IAVCEI CVHR Web Hosted hazard map database workshops* *Workshop 1: Americas, Europe and Africa* When: Sept 29, 2020 08:00 PDT / 11: 00 EDT / 12:00 ART/ 17:00 CEST / 15:00 UTC Register in advance for this meeting: http://bit.ly/HMDBWS1 *Workshop 2: Asia and the Pacific* When: Sep 30, 2020 14:00 NZDT / 10:00 JST/ 09:00 SGT / 15:00 HST (29th) / 01:00 UTC Register in advance for this meeting: http://bit.ly/HMDBWS2 ----------------------------- After registering, you will receive a confirmation email a few hours later containing information about joining the meeting, including a passcode.
