Problem

When we had Codesprint last week, our partners at PVMBG said that the current icon for volcano and volcanic ash are not representing the event intuitively enough.
This is our current icon fo Volcano hazard
volcano
and this is our current icon for Volcanic ash
volcanic_ash

According to them, the icon for the volcano is better suited as the icon for volcanic ash because the logo for volcanic ash is a little bit harder to understand the meaning/context/association with the hazard. To act as volcano icon, they suggest a simpler design without ash coming out of the peak.

Expected Behaviour

We should have icon/logo that user can intuitively understand so that they can associate the hazard better just by looking at the logo without additional text to emphasise the idea.

Environment

  • InaSAFE :
  • QGIS :
  • OS :
  • Data used :
    • Exposure :
    • Hazard :
    • Aggregation :

Proposed Solution

Switch (and if needed rework a bit) the icon of volcano hazard to volcanic ash hazard, and make a simpler design for volcano hazard.
maybe something like (but a lot better than 😄 ) this:
g3337

Hi @timlinux - is it possible for @MariaSolovyeva to take a look at this feedback and make a new volcano icon for us?

Closing this as the realtime work has been moved to its own repo and a ticket has been opened there.

@MariaSolovyeva I'm trying to track down if you did this for us - can you check and share again?

Hi @timlinux and @MariaSolovyeva
I am reopening this ticket since this is actually more on the desktop side and closing the ticket in the realtime one.
