Local government units and the general public can now access volcanic activity advisories through the VolcanoPH app released by the Department of Science and Technology-Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs).

Daily volcano observation bulletins are also accessible through mobile devices via VolcanoPH app.

The agency also launched the Volcano Observation Live Capture Net or Volcan page on its website to help in preparing contingencies and protection. Volcan offers near-real-time visuals, earthquake records, and other scientific data from monitored active volcanoes.

“These innovations demonstrate Phivolcs’ dedication to harnessing science and technology for public safety and awareness,” said DoST-Phivolcs director Teresito C. Bacolcol.
