Introduction - GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion
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
Validation of deformation mapping products (PSInSAR)
Introduction - GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion
To avoid the lack of coherency between images used to compute the interferograms, we focused on the pre-eruptive unrest periods.

Good agreement between the two methods, within their associated error bars
Introduction - GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion
Comparison between PSInSAR and GPS data
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
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)

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.

Product validation at Piton de La Fournaise:
Introduction - GPS data - PSInSAR - Conclusion
• 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.
