The objective of this project, led by INVOLCAN and in which ITER participates, is to implement a system for the automatic analysis of volcanic monitoring data.
Last February 20, 2023, took place the first partners meeting of the project 𝗗𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗩𝗢𝗟𝗖𝗔𝗡 “𝘜𝘯𝘢 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘢 𝘭𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰́𝘯 𝘥𝘦 𝘦𝘳𝘶𝘱𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘷𝘰𝘭𝘤𝘢́𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘴 𝘦𝘯 𝘊𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘴” with which starts its implementation phase.
This project, led by the Instituto Volcanológico de Canarias (INVOLCAN), involves the Instituto Tecnológico y de Energías Renovables (ITER), the University of La Laguna (ULL), the University of Granada (UGR) and the company Aragón Photonics Labs.
The purpose of DIGIVOLCAN is to implement a system for the automatic analysis of volcanic monitoring data recorded by INVOLCAN, using state-of-the-art technologies based on artificial intelligence. These tools will strengthen the volcanic early warning system in the Canary Islands, which will be configured as a “natural laboratory” of excellence in volcanic surveillance.
The project also foresees the creation of a web interface for the visualization of the processed data that can be used by the civil protection authorities as well as by the general public.
This project is co-funded by the State Plan for Scientific and Technical Research and Innovation 2021-2023, within the framework of R&D&I projects in strategic lines 2022 (PLEC2022-009271), the Volcanological Institute of the Canary Islands (INVOLCAN) and the Institute of Technology and Renewable Energies (ITER).
