Volcanic and Tectonic Deformation Monitoring: How to find, access, and create plots for GPS data
Channel: Ben Ferraiuolo
Date: 03/05/2019

Hey guys! Don’t forget about the parts and links below. This video will show you how to access and find GPS deformation data to create your own GPS plots to give you the ability to monitor volcanic and tectonic hazard areas from the comfort of your own home. These possibilities, along with seismic monitoring, allow you to fully monitor volcanoes just like the professionals do! If there are any mistakes, please let me know immediately.

Parts:
00:01 – Intro/About GPS deformation monitoring
08:12 – UNR map to find stations and GPS plots (use this map to find station names for download)
12:26 – How to understand GPS plots
14:44 – How they used to detect deformation
15:29 – UNAVCO data download webservice
18:07 – Opening the data in Microsoft Excel/Explaining data
19:29 – Creating your own GPS plots
25:29 – How to label your plots
28:46 - Conclusion
