| Abstract | The use of remote sensing is more and more incontrovertible in volcanic monitoring, especially in INSAR and thermal studies. A comprehensive database of high-resolution multispectral and multitemporal optical satellite imagery exists for Piton de la Fournaise, the active volcano on La Reunion Island. This database, however, remains relatively underexploited in volcanological studies of Piton de la Fournaise. Using a large image data set including SPOT 5 and 4, ASTER and aerial photography, we performed cartography of recent lava flows. Different methods were applied for each sensor in order to extract and map lava flow contours and surface morphology. These methods include photo interpretation as well as fusion of thermal band and optical images. In addition we performed several tests with specific software combining object and spectral based techniques. Subsequently, a simple statistical comparison between different perimeters and areas mapped allowed us to determine a precision ratio. Results show that difficulties in extracting contours arise when the study area is a complex lava flow field where the different lava flows overlap, or have a similar textural and radiometric characteristics. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
