Looks like some good starting data. I am wondering about doing a side by side - of that volcano that blew and put it inside the YellowStone Caldera for comparison - just to point out that that one small volcano:

was enough to cause massive issues locally, and caused the "nuclear winter" scenario seen in Europe. Would you like to google earth and do some snipping and pasting inside of Yellowstone Caldera?

Just approximate. Couldn't get google earth to the same zoom level at different locations, therefore I resorted to paintbrush and a little approximation.
