26/09/2021-12:45 h Canaria. - LA PALMA  ISLAND ERUPTION.- DATA AND MAPS OF THE PREVIEW OF THE COLADAS.- What I did yesterday, I deleted everything due to a critical failure in my computer that has been hung... a shame after the work and hours that cost me. So now I've decided to use a system with more data and more nimble instead of hand with satellite as a starting point.

Most mortals don't understand where the maps that come from in all means, but, at this link, I give them the site if you want to download on your own computer the layers of the advancement of flow palm of the point of origin, with the latest satellite data coming out in all media in Geographic Information Systems or GIS files:

https://emergency.copernicus.eu/mapping/...xUdAYlLu58

In this space you can download data into a zip compressed file and decompressing it, inside is the data to load into any GIS and whoever wants a kmz that can be loaded into any Googlearth, it is also layered. every kmz is a layer you select and drag and you already have the data.

And if we still find it too much, you can always download the map already made in PDF or JPG.... a luxury. (Enrique).

ZIP data from the last map in a compressed file:

The last map to download in PDF :-200 dpi

House-to-house map of the advance of the La Palma volcano: the lava reaches 570 buildings and threatens another 1,600

The images from the satellites and the information from the cadastre allow us to see each of the houses on the island and their distance from the lava. You can click on each house to see a photo of the facade and more information


The unstoppable advance of lava through the Aridane Valley continues to engulf homes, roads and everything in its path, as shown by satellite images. The outlook is bleak : more than 200 hectares razed and 500 or 600 buildings destroyed, depending on the source and the counting method used (see methodology). There are 2,000 meters to the sea and on its way there are hundreds of more houses.

The map prepared by EL PAÍS represents the extent of the lava each day, the predictions of its advance, the damaged houses and those at risk. The perimeter of the lava in its advance is collected by the Copernicus program, the prediction is from the University of La Laguna, and the information on the constructions, from the Cadastre.

Below is the advance of the lava day by day:

26/09/2021-13:30 h Canaria. - LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- ROCK DISPRISING NEXT TO THE PORT OF TAZACORT.- That's right, so many tremors, earthquakes, explosions and vibrations, it's normal for these rock detachments to occur, as volcanic materials usually occur be very loose with scum and lapilli.

The problem is that if there are many rock detachments in a particular site, you can think of something else, deformation by opening or moving a failure or fracture and that would no longer be so good, because it would indicate that that that area could open a dam for let the magma come out. I guess this disconnect is the first case, which is the most normal and more, it's possible that just at the time of the collapse there was an Earthquake. So far IGN shows none. (Enrique)

Cracks are appearing in the road and rockfall in Tazcorte.

Some have commented the cracks in the road are old ones from when it does not say.

Latest update courtesy of Enrique Volcanes y ciencia hoy

LA PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.- SATELLITE PREVIEW.- I don't like to be a carrier of bad news, but this animated twitter image reflects that all the flow is reactivating and heading towards the sea , it's approaching the town of Todoque. The current front of flow 5 has merged with the one that runs over the partially cooled flow 2 is less than half a mile away from the front of Todoque and is wider. This isn't over and it looks like it's going to strike again. As soon as I pass all the data I'll put a map. I've managed to retrieve data in the temporary folder by renaming it and I'm digitizing this new breakthrough.
What I've already digitized is the South 4 flow that has touched the photovoltaic plant and has finally advanced more since yesterday, namely about 450 m, nothing less and continues westward engulfing it all.
In summary, two flows that are almost fused and forming a front of almost 1 km moving south engulfing everything. And nobody says anything... I hallucinate.... (Enrique)

Video and overflow of  flow4 in the south and its advancement, grazing the solar plant and moving a few more meters ahead of the cracked mountain. (Enrique)

PS: This is done with data this morning and flow has followed its breakthrough, so that the finish of flow in Todoque started moving again and has taken down the church and its bell tower in advance... I can't believe, do not warn of this, that we are not prepared, if this continues with this uncontrollable, we are going to have a misfortune. (Enrique)

So heartbreaking for the village.

And still no official updates from Pevolca or the Cabildo La Palma.

The bell tower of the Church of Todoque falls when the lava reaches the town

It is one of the hallmarks that has been tried to save until the last moment
The Todoque bell tower has fallen after the push produced by one of the lava tongues that has reached the place.

The bell tower has collapsed upon receiving the impact on one of its walls and has collapsed.

The flow had stopped in the town, which almost reached, on September 21.
Now a new tongue of lava, crawling after the first one, is advancing at 100 meters per hour.

The doctor's office has also disappeared. From now on, he has the Todoque Mountain and banana trees. About 3,000 meters to the sea.

The local priest awaited him with anguish
Just a few days ago, trying to save most of the belongings, the firefighters had worked to place obstacles with construction material trying to get the laundry into the hamlet that surrounds the church.

Alberto Hernández, priest of Todoque, having to leave the holy place, already said that he made "to the idea that it will not be." At the moment, part is a part of the building that has fallen, the bell tower.

It is a church that has been in existence for sixty years as a parish and the temple is not centenary. "There are carvings of new construction, without artistic value but with a lot of affective value," explained the priest.

26/09/2021-19:00 h Canaria. - PALMA ISLAND ERUPTION.--COLADAS ADVANCE MAP WITH ALL DATA. THE CHURCH FALLS OUT OF EVERYONE. SPEED BETWEEN 60 AND 100 M PER HOUR.-

What has happened?, because a new wave of lava very hot, has been moving over the existing laundry so that the previous one had stayed almost stopped , but when this wave has reached the peak, what has happened has happened and resumes its march towards the ocean with two fronts that sum up 1 km wide and it moves between 60 and 100 meters per hour ... but they will travel many meters at this time tomorrow (Enrique).
