This is awesome, but the closest volcano it brought up for me is a dormant one. It would be nice to see closest active volcano.

I'm curious, when I was a kid we were taught about the active/dormant/extinct distinction, but my understanding has been that more modern thinking doesn't really go for the dormant label, because dormant on a human timescale doesn't really mean much on a geologic timescale.
