Mayon Volcano 1.5 — Beneath the Perfect Cone
Explore the perfect cone. Discover the restless world beneath it.
Experience Mayon Volcano in Bicol, Philippines, through an interactive 3D landscape built using NASA SRTM elevation data and Esri satellite imagery. Explore 52 km of surrounding terrain, discover local landmarks, and watch changing daylight reveal the mountain’s dramatic shape.
Version 1.5 takes your exploration underground, connecting the landscape above with the scientific questions beneath it.
New in Version 1.5
• Journey Inside: Follow a guided descent through four stations—from the summit vent to pathways, crystal-rich magma storage, and the deeper volcanic system. Explore a conceptual cutaway showing how these parts may connect.
• Follow a Crystal: Investigate an illustrated volcanic crystal. Reveal growth zones, explore evidence of magma mixing, and discover how scientists use chemical changes to investigate events underground.
• How Do We Know?: Open source-linked explanations that distinguish observations, scientific interpretations, illustrative details, and unanswered questions.
• Simpler Navigation: Find your next experience through four clear starting points: Explore, Journey Inside, Through Time, and Discover.

• True-Scale 3D Terrain: Navigate a landscape based on real elevation data, with Mayon’s summit represented at 2,463 metres above sea level.
• Through Time: Explore educational interpretations of historical eruptions, including 2018, 1984, 1968, and the 1814 Cagsawa event, with lava and ash visualizations.
• Dynamic Sun & Sky: Change the time of day to experience daylight, dusk, stars, and atmospheric haze.
• Local Landmarks: Discover the Cagsawa Ruins belfry, Daraga, Legazpi, and surrounding communities.
• Learning & Classroom Resources: Explore guided activities, scale comparisons, altitude rulers, and resources for students and educators.
• Atmospheric Sound: Hear synthesized wind, birds, and volcanic rumbles that accompany your exploration.
The underground scenes are conceptual illustrations informed by research, not direct scans of Mayon’s interior. Historical and hazard visualizations are educational interpretations.
The app does not provide live monitoring, eruption forecasts, or evacuation guidance.
Discover Mayon from the landscape above to the clues hidden within.
