Another year, another Icelandic Volcano eruption. This one, the Grimsvotn Volcano, can now be explored interactively via a neat new Google Earth visualization from Adam Burt.
Not only is it a great visualization, but it has a few extra dimensions that you wouldn’t expect; elevation and time. You can fly through the visualization to see how the ash spreads differently at different elevations, and you can also animate the entire cloud to see it in motion.
Hit their site to download the KMZ and check it out for yourself.
