Smoke or Vog?

Smoke or Vog? tells Hawaiʻi residents whether satellite-visible haze is volcanic vog or wildfire smoke, a question government satellite products can't answer, and quotes official health guidance in five island languages (English, Vietnamese, Ilocano, Tagalog, ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi). Every daylight hour it analyzes the newest GOES-18 image: Muse Spark finds each plume, SAM 3.1 cuts it out (two-pass) and tracks its drift over 3 hours, and a Muse Spark agent decides which evidence tools to call (wind, NASA fire detections, the official USGS volcano status, distance to vents) and must cite every result. Borderline cases get an independent second opinion from Muse Wonder, which can only lower confidence, never raise it. "Uncertain" is a valid answer. Health guidance is never chosen or written by AI: fixed official lines (Hawaiʻi DOH/IVHHN, EPA AirNow) are quoted verbatim and only translated. We validated against 160 archived scans and AirNow ground monitors, which taught us that satellites see haze aloft, not ground air, so "no plume" never claims clean air.
