Forecasting software and sensor-based monitoring services that sell eruption warnings and risk reports to governments, utilities, and insurers near volcanoes.
Volcano forecasting & hazard-monitoring products
Recent reports show prediction is becoming plausible: Wired says better physics could let us forecast eruptions, Google Research demonstrates mapping methane from space with deep learning, and Nature found satellite images showed warning signs before the Nepal disaster. Those advances make real-time alerts, emissions monitoring, and insurance grade risk reports feasible for governments, utilities, and insurers.
