Sumario:Volcanoes morphology reflects the deformation episodes occurred at the edifice, although different deformation processes can produce similar morphologies.Analogue modeling is a key tool for a better understanding of the causes of deformation in volcanoes using their morphology. In this work we have used for first time the Kinect sensor (Microsoft®) for monitoring topographic changes in modeled volcanoes suffering deformation due to intrusion and spreading over a hydrothermal core processes. Results obtained show differences between the two processes in the extent and location of volcano subsidence and bulging zones, the height of the deformed flank slope change and the fracturing intensity. Technical problems detected in Kinect data restrict parameters quantification using morphometric techniques and imply the need for future research about the capabilities of these methods for the morpho-structural identification of deformation processes in volcanoes
