4. VOG 2007 Denver Schwandner et al.: WOVOdat WOVOIAVCEI 4 What do we want to know to feel safe around volcanoes : What could happen? When & for how long? Do I have to leave, and, when can I come back? Could I be warned too late, not at all, falsely? This is what we need to know to feel safe around volcanoes : Scientific understanding of processes, symptomatic pattern recognition (monitoring); epidemiological forecasting, activity characteristics, hazard assessment; Mitigation of human and infrastructure impact of volcanic activity, decision-making structure, relief logistics; Reliability and accountability uncertainty concept (accuracy, forecast precision) Volcano observatory rationale & mission: the business needs

5. VOG 2007 Denver Schwandner et al.: WOVOdat WOVOIAVCEI 5 Monitoring  Analysis  Predictions early symptoms monitoring  assessment and prediction; possibly forecast epidemiological databases (multidisciplinary ) past diagnoses, historic case studies patient file with individual history VDAP* Volcano response to the Mount Pinatubo crisis in the Philippines. USGS and PHIVOLCS personnel install a seismic station near Mount Pinatubo six weeks before the devastating eruptions. Installation of a monitoring network is a team effort. -- USGS * (U.S. Internat’l Volcano Disaster Assistance Program, established after the 1984-85 Navadop del Ruiz, Colombia eruptions, lahars) How to forecast a springtime cold and its eruptions  appropriate predictions available in medical science, not for volcanoes - time & cost saving - efficiency & accuracy  live saving

6. VOG 2007 Denver Schwandner et al.: WOVOdat WOVOIAVCEI 6 1 from WOVO to WOVOdat WOVO: ca. 70 volcano observatories globally ! (WOVOdat < IAVCEI Commission< IUGG Association)

7. VOG 2007 Denver Schwandner et al.: WOVOdat WOVOIAVCEI 7 Data sources: volcano observatory data flow “Volcano observatories acquire multidisciplinary data” Data types (examples): imagery (satellite, ground, IR, radar) sound (seismic waves) deformation (tilt, uplift, etc.) narratives (visual observations, e.g. tree kill) gas chemistry, hydrology geology (eruptive history & styles) Result: Data jungle of multiple formats, frequency, density, resolution… Volcano monitoring techniques (USGS)

8. VOG 2007 Denver Schwandner et al.: WOVOdat WOVOIAVCEI 8 Data sources: volcano observatory data management “Volcano observatories combine interdisciplinary expert knowledge “ Multidisciplinary data sets – differing in: Format Frequency Density Resolution Terminology Scale Result: “Data Stretching ” in times of crisis USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory

11. VOG 2007 Denver Schwandner et al.: WOVOdat WOVOIAVCEI 11 Using WOVOdat: Single-volcano data monitoring and analysis (symptoms): visualization on same screen Comparison to prior similar events (epidemiology) Postulation and testing of hypothesis on active process (diagnosis) Data dissemination, outreach “remote volcano disaster assistance” An Internet GIS-type visualization of WOVOdat-type data (Geowarn, EU) WOVOdat tools
