What does the map of Earth's volcanic and geological simulation technology since 1960 look like?

The new geological map has been implemented according to technology standards that have been causing fever with the overall value of natural disasters occurring on Earth from 1960 to the present.

The new geological map has been implemented according to technology standards which have been causing fever with the general values ​​of natural disasters occurring on the Earth from 1960 to the present.

Accordingly, this new map is part of a global Volcanic Program project on display at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, simulating, recording, providing complete, detailed volcanic eruptions. movement, earthquakes, sulfur dioxide emissions from all over the world began in 1960 .

All data integrated in this map are analyzed, summarized, taken from data of geological satellites, space satellites, disaster monitoring devices, ultraviolet spectrum and partial data supply granted by NASA Aerospace Agency, USA.

In the map, general characters E3 include earthquakes, volcanoes , exhaust gases, earthquakes symbolized by green circles, volcanoes denoted as red triangles and dangerous emissions SO2 is a large yellow circle. . All symbols are fully integrated, full at the same time on the map, which means you can keep track of natural disasters at the same time in a certain observation area.

In addition, this map also outlines the typical geological fault lines of the Earth such as the fracturing cluster along the American west coast to the South American geological edge, the fault zone dividing the Americas, Africa. , and Australia as well as illustrating typical volcanic hotspots in Iceland, Indonesia, Aleutian Islands and South America .

Speaking to the Washington Post , Elizabeth Cottrell, project director of the Global Volcanic Program, said: " Between earthquakes, volcanoes, SO2 emissions and geological faults are closely related ." She hopes that more or less this map will provide an important general premise to learn about the geological relationship between the above natural phenomena in the future.
