Research Infrastructures

Regional Observatories

Central European Volcanic Province Observatory | CVO

The primary scientific goal of the Central European Volcanic Province Observatory is to better understand and map the processes in transcrustal magma systems beneath distributed intraplate volcanic fields, and to assess their volcanic hazard and their potential sustainable use for energy generation and natural resource deposit.

Laboratories

Bubble & Volcano Lab

The Bubble & Volcano Lab is an experimental laboratory to study bubble processes in hydrothermal and volcanic terrain.

 

Further

Tool Development Lab

We develop advanced numerical methods and software toolboxes for waveform simulation of various data, efficient processing of large data sets, and source modelling and inversion. Our open source products are developed by researchers for researchers. To make the processing and analysis of massive and large data sets feasible, highly efficient software ecosystems are built.

Workshop | Hardware development and testing

The technical team has expertise in the electronic and mechanical development and maintenance of equipment, measuring stands, sensors, gauging and data communication systems, as well as field and laboratory work.

InSAR & Pixel Offset Lab

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and pixel offset tracking are pivotal techniques in our geospatial analysis, offering unparalleled capabilities for monitoring and understanding volcanoes and earthquakes.
