What is this tool?

This random volcano generator uses a list of 1605 known active volcanoes from around the world.

As well as collecting the name of the volcano I have compiled extra details such as its approximate location and height. An image of the volcano is also shown where I have been able to find one; some remain unexplored and have no name so there is very little information to offer in those cases.

What I realised after making this tool is the amazing diversity and beauty of all the different volcanos on planet Earth. Quite amazing really.
