Partial monitoring network outage continues at Hawaiian Volcano Observatory

Hawaiian Volcano Observatory is experiencing a partial monitoring network outage that started about 1:45 p.m. Saturday, April 11.

Despite this partial outage, remaining data coming into the observatory are sufficient to allow observatory scientists to detect major changes at Hawaiian volcanoes.

The outage is affecting monitoring data transmitted via radio telemetry.

Monitoring data transmitted via the cellular network are still being collected and relayed to the web as normal. This includes the three Kīlauea summit livestream cameras, which remain online at this time.

Hawaiian Volcano Observatory staff have been assessing the issue and working to resolve the outage since Saturday afternoon.

Restoration of data streams could take hours or days because of the complexity of the problem. Meanwhile, users of the observatory website will notice gaps in seismic and other data streams until the problem is resolved.

Hawaiian Volcano Observatory continues to monitor Hawaiian volcanoes closely and will continue to issue updates on a regular schedule.
