February 7, 2025—Kīlauea summit eruption reference map

This reference map depicts the Kīlauea summit eruption within Halema‘uma‘u crater that began on December 23, 2024. As of this posting on February 7, the eruption has had eight episodes. However, most of the map data included here were collected during a Hawaiian Volcano Observatory helicopter overflight on February 3, prior to the eighth episode that began later the same day. For this reason, the provided statistics only reflect the first seven episodes of the eruption. No lava flows are currently active on the crater floor, but persistent glow from the eruptive vents indicates that lava remains close to the surface.
