Open access geoscience data: Global Volcanism Program: Current and past volcanic activity for all volcanoes on the planet in the past 12,000 years.

Global Volcanism Program: Current and past volcanic activity for all volcanoes on the planet in the past 12,000 years. Valuable Open-access data.

“The Smithsonian Institution’s Global Volcanism Program (GVP) is housed in the Department of Mineral Sciences, National Museum of Natural History, in Washington D.C. We are devoted to a better understanding of Earth’s active volcanoes and their eruptions during the last 10,000 years.

The mission of GVP is to document, understand, and disseminate information about global volcanic activity. We do this through four core functions: reporting, archiving, research, and outreach. The data systems that lie at our core have been in development since 1968 when GVP began documenting the eruptive histories of volcanoes.”

It includes volcanic gas emissions of Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) since 1978.

Data can also be downloaded as KMZ for Google Earth. Link in the comments.
