I think you mean a reference source for the space view of volcanoes, THE source is the ASTER (acronym for Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) Volcano Archive (AVA) hosted by NASA's JPL.

There you find a link to the alphabetic listing of volcanoes, containing practically every volcano in the world, even officially unnamed ones, and another link to Google Maps where you can browse the globe (each volcano clearly marked). For each volcano you will find the entry of the Smithsonian volcano catalog and ASTER Very Near Infrared (VNIR) daytime satellite images (updated regularly containing old ones and very recent ones; a total of 40,000 photos).

Starting page is in the related links below.
