Hazard maps are fundamental for the development of land and resource management plans. In this paper we focus on volcanic hazards. In particular we discuss a possible approach to the construction of the lava flow hazard map for the Mount Etna, which is the most active volcano in Europe. The core of our proposal is a lava flow simulation system. We present the main characteristics of the underlying simulation model and how it has been validated. Next we introduce a novel and still in progress approach to the clustering of lava flow emission points based on data mining techniques.

Abstract
Hazard maps are fundamental for the development of land and resource management plans. In this paper we focus on volcanic hazards. In particular we discuss a possible approach to the construction of the lava flow hazard map for the Mount Etna, which is the most active volcano in Europe. The core of our proposal is a lava flow simulation system. We present the main characteristics of the underlying simulation model and how it has been validated. Next we introduce a novel and still in progress approach to the clustering of lava flow emission points based on data mining techniques.
