Related Data for: Cities near volcanoes: Which cities are most exposed to volcanic hazards?

This dataset quantifies and ranks global cities located within 100 km of at least one Holocene volcano. Using 2020 urban polygons from the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHS-UCDB) and volcano locations from the Global Volcanism Program, we calculated exposed populations within 10, 30, and 100 km buffers, the number of volcanoes affecting each city, the distance to nearest volcano, and composite exposure scores. A second tab ranks volcanoes by exposed population, number of exposed cities, and proximity to urban areas. The app to visualise this data is available here: https://vharg.github.io/shiny_VolcCities/
