What is the difference between a tiltometer and a seismometer?
A tiltometer measures the bulging of a volcano, which is how much the volcano is 'growing' wider and wider due to the magma chamber within a volcano filling with magma, if the tiltometer is reading that the volcano is bulging massively then this could be because it is about to errupt so it can be used to predict volcanic eruptions. A seismometer on the other hand measure tremors before an eruption due to magma movement and it can be used to predict earthquakes due to foreshocks.

What do gps sensors do for volcanoes?
In terms of volcano monitoring the GPS monitoring sites that can be places anywhere on the volcano are used to monitor specific movements of the mountain. The movements of a volcano can indicate many things about what is going on inside the volcano, for example if two GPS units on opposide sides of the volcano are moving further apart it would indicate the volcano is expanding. This could possibly be an indication of magma forcing its way up into the volcano and can also indicate a potential eruption in the future.
