Abstract:
Only few volcanoes in the world have been permanent observed with monitoring systems. The Exupéry project aimed to construct a mobile system for detecting and alarming events in near real time. In this paper we report an experiment to monitor volcanic unrest based on interferometric methods and corner reflectors.
