Abstract
Summary
The results of using remote sensing data to study the volcanic activity of Etna and its impact on aviation from August 1 to 16, 2024, are presented. Timely detection of danger, monitoring of volcanic activity and volcanic ash clouds using satellite data, forecasting the movement of volcanic ash clouds, issuing warnings to pilots, and assigning safe routes to aircraft to avoid volcanic ash clouds, all contribute to ensuring the safety of civil aviation flights by the requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organisation.
