  21. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Validation of deformation mapping products (PSInSAR) • To avoid the lack of coherency between images used to compute the interferograms, we focused on the pre-eruptive unrest periods. • 2nd stage : find the longest time period with no eruption disturbing both the GPS and the PSInSAR records. • the selected period ranges between March and October 2005. Two distinct deformation phases can be identified : (1) from March to July (2) from July to October

  25. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Conclusion – Ground deformation mapping product • GPS data : Two time scales of ground deformation (1) Large short-term ground displacements (up to 20×103 mm d-1), a few min to hours prior each eruption (2) Small long-term ground displacements during pre-eruptive unrest (0.4-0.7 mm d-1 of summit inflation) • For the pre-eruptive unrest periods : Good agreement between the PSInSAR and GPS data : PSInSAR data provide global inference of the ground deformation field • PSInSAR data : useful complementary information for accurate ground displacement mapping

  26. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Perspectives • PSInSAR at Piton de La Fournaise • Complementary to GPS data • GPS data: dynamics of the ground deformation in real-time • PSInSAR data: cover a larger area Dolomieu Bory

  27. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Perspectives Distal eruptions • PSInSAR at Piton de La Fournaise • Complementary to GPS data • Notably for the distal eruptions located outside of the summit cone where no field monitored networks are implemented Dolomieu Bory

  28. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Perspectives Distal eruptions • PSInSAR at Piton de La Fournaise • Support to early stage warning of volcanic risk especially during distal eruptions. Dolomieu Bory

  29. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Product Validation at Piton de La Fournaise • Ground deformation mapping • Surface thermal anomalies

  30. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion Other product validation : Surface thermal anomalies (ASTER-SPOT-MODIS) Results of the validation September 2006 - January 2007 eruption GlobVolcano mass flux is about 30% larger than the volumetric flux measured by the observatory. This implies an average porosity of about 30% for the lava flow, which agrees with both literature reference and some measurements made by the observatory.

  31. Introduction- GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion MODIS MIR- saturation Other product validation : Surface thermal anomalies (ASTER-SPOT-MODIS) Increase of surface activity linked with the summit crater collapse: flux estimated at > 50m3/s on the field (B. Hirn)

  33. Introduction - GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion • Product validation at Piton de La Fournaise:  • Ground deformation mapping • Surface thermal anomalies • Remarkable agreement found between ground data and GlobVolcano product. • - Both the location of the eruptive center, the emplacement of active lava flow, the ground displacements and the eruptive mass flux appear as robust and as accurate as the observatory record.
