🌋 TOPOGRAPHIC TARGET ZONES
• Mi-isi Gully (South): Primary active channel within our optical FOV. High probability zone for routing lava effusion and incandescent rockfalls.
• Bonga Gully (Southeast): Secondary active channel. Frequently tracks pyroclastic and rockfall events visible from the Daraga viewpoint.
• Basud Gully (East): Eastern drainage perimeter. Continuously monitored for flank activity and structural overflow.
Welcome to MayonStream Lab
This is a continuous, real-time autonomous visual monitoring node targeting Mayon Volcano in Albay, Philippines.

What started in 2023 as a bootstrapped hardware experiment has evolved through endless trials and volcanic events into a resilient, 24/7 monitoring station. We are constantly pushing code and upgrading hardware to build a better disaster-monitoring tool for the community. This specific node represents our migration to dedicated IP hardware for seamless day-to-night tracking.

DEPLOYMENT ARCHITECTURE & ROADMAP
[ONLINE] IP Camera: Semi-full FOV equipped with an Auto-IR hardware filter for night vision.
[ONLINE] IMX-V1cam: Mid-range view utilizing a custom-coded Raspberry Pi pipeline.
[IN DEV] IMX-V2cam: Telephoto summit close-up (Hardware in testing).
[PLANNED] Seismic Node: Deploying a low-cost seismic sensor to overlay real-time tremor data directly onto the video feeds.

ETHICAL FOV & PRIVACY
Despite utilizing high-resolution optics, this system is governed by strict privacy constraints. The Field of View (FOV) is mechanically calibrated from our station in Daraga to isolate only the upper slopes and summit crater. We intentionally exclude all residential grids, houses, and barangays from the frame to professionally respect and protect the privacy of our fellow Albayanos.

OPTICAL & SENSOR BEHAVIOR (Visibility Guide)
Because this is a long-range monitoring node (8.5km away), environmental factors directly affect the sensor output:
• Auto-IR Night Vision (Greyscale): Upon detecting low-lux conditions, the camera autonomously drops its Infrared (IR) cut filter. The stream transitions to a black-and-white (greyscale) image, allowing researchers to track ash venting, rockfalls, and structural changes in total darkness—even when there is no visible crater glow.
• Optical Obstruction (Grey/White Screen): The stream has not crashed. This indicates a physical barrier of heavy rain, thick cloud cover, or volcanic ash blocking the line of sight to the summit.
• Thermal Distortion (Soft/Hazy Image): Heat waves or suspended volcanic ash act as an optical diffuser, softening image sharpness even when the lens is perfectly focused.

HARDWARE SPECIFICATIONS
• Capture Node: Dedicated IP Camera Architecture
• Sensor Logic: Integrated Auto-IR cut filter handling seamless transitions between bright daylight and zero-lux environments.
• Processing: On-board hardware encoding to maintain stream stability and reduce dropped frames during high-motion events.

DATA AGGREGATION & SOURCING DISCLAIMER
The telemetry overlays, weather sounding data, and volcanic alert statuses displayed on this broadcast are autonomously scraped and aggregated from publicly available government endpoints and public domain releases.
• Volcanic Activity & Alert Levels: Sourced from DOST-PHIVOLCS.
• Meteorological & Radiosonde Data: Sourced from DOST-PAGASA (Legazpi Station).
• Disaster Advisories: Sourced from NDRRMC.

System Note: MayonStream Lab operates strictly as an independent data aggregator. We do not generate this telemetry, nor are we affiliated with, endorsed by, or employed by any of these government agencies. This monitoring node merely collects their publicly available data and syncs it with our independent visual feed to provide a unified dashboard for situational awareness.

OPEN DATA LICENSE (Non-Commercial)
This node is a completely independent DIY hobby project, driven by a passion for electronics engineering and IT, and funded entirely out of pocket.

The live stream, footage, and telemetry data are free to use for public safety, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), education, and scientific research.
(Strictly NO commercial use, unauthorized restreaming for profit, or monetization of this footage without permission).
