Many insights have been gained by their studies of how places are shaped and identity constructed within the political and economic landscapes of tourism. Some critical geographers even suggest that a geography of tourism must not emphasize only the static nature of places and positions within tourism (for example ‘hosts’ and ‘guests’ as ‘fixed’ in their meaning and interaction), but recognize the importance of movement and fluidity, the ‘meeting’ of peoples that takes place (McRae 2003). McRae even suggests that the Saidian notion of ‘exile’ is worth exploring for a better understanding of the relations between tourists and locals and the ‘crossing and containment that is embedded in the core practices and politics of the contemporary world’ (2003:246).

I would say, learning tourism was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life considering opportunities and experiences which I encountered on the process. I could recall that four years ago, I was saying to myself that finishing bachelor would be my last academic-related goal in my life. However, today, I know that I was wrong. With the fact that the world and the industry are progressing and I raise my self-awareness that I know nothing, here I am today taking my words back and as I am heading towards the final chapter from one of the most exciting journeys in my life – pursuing a master degree in Wageningen, the Netherlands. Never say never. In completing this thesis, I received countless assistances and helps from people that I would like to mention. Firstly, I would not be at this point in my life without the blessing and prayers from my parents, grandma, and family.

The eruption of relocation was conducted to determine the location of the Agung Volcano recorded on November 25th, 2017 was a significant danger for people living around it. Therefore, it is source of the earthquake that caused the eruption. Besides, necessary to monitor the activity of Agung Volcano.

  • Lava Dome Changes Detection at Agung Mountain During High Level of Volcanic Activity Using Uav Photogrammetry

However, it is challenging to conduct direct field measurement due to safety reason. Here, we investigate the lava dome changes of Mount Agung in Indonesia during the highest level of volcanic activity. On 22 September 2017, the rumbling and seismic activity in this volcano started increasing to the highest level for a period of time. We afterwards collected image data at lava dome area by using UAV over this time period. To accomplish the goal of change detection, we assembled and developed a fixed-wing UAV platform, i.e. Buffalo FX-79 to acquire images of Mount Agung whose elevation is roughly 3,142 m above sea level. We acquired the UAV images on two dates, i.e. Oct 19 and Oct 21 of 2017. Due to an exclusion zone surround the volcano, we could only operate the UAV at 20km distance from the crater. With these data set, we produced three-dimensional point clouds, high-resolution Digital Elevation Model and orthophoto by using Structure from Motion (SfM) and Multi View Stereo (SfM-MVS) technique with Photoscan Pro software.

  • Volcanic Eruption Eruption at Kuchinoerabujima Volcano, Japan
    Volcanic Eruption Eruption at Kuchinoerabujima volcano, Japan Source: watchers.news,11 January,2020 Japan's Kuchinoerabujima volcano erupted at 06:05 UTC on January 11, 2020, ejecting volcanic material up to 300 m (984 feet) from the crater of Mount Shindake. This is the first eruption at the volcano since February 2, 2019. Kuchinoerabujima is a volcano island in Satsunan Islands, Japan, about 120 km (75 miles) SSW of Kagoshima city and about 1 100 km (685 miles) WSW of Tokyo. A series of eruptions with pyroclastic flows were recorded in December 2018 and January 2019. Volcanic ash cloud reached up to 2.7 km (9000 feet) above sea level. There were no pyroclastic flows produced and no evacuation orders were issued, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) said. The Alert Level remains at 3 (on a scale of 5) since 15:15 UTC on October 27, 2019 (00:15 JST, October 28), after a large earthquake hit the island. "There is a possibility that an eruption will occur of a magnitude similar to the one in January when pyroclastic flows reached a point 1.9 km (1.2 miles) from the crater," JMA said at the time. In 2015, pyroclastic flows reached all the way to the coast, forcing all residents to evacuate. Residents (currently about 100 of them) and tourists are warned not to approach the danger zone. Geological summary A group of young stratovolcanoes forms the eastern end of the irregularly shaped island of Kuchinoerabujima in the northern Ryukyu Islands, 15 km (9.3 miles) west of Yakushima.
