Ash Cloud

Volcanic ash clouds pose significant risks to human health, infrastructure, and the environment, necessitating accurate and timely monitoring of their dispersion. Current research focuses on improving the speed and accuracy of ash cloud delimitation using artificial intelligence, particularly generative adversarial networks like Pix2Pix, to process satellite imagery more efficiently than traditional methods. This automated analysis is crucial for risk assessment and mitigation efforts, while parallel research explores the privacy implications of using location data collected during ash cloud events.
