SnowPack
Assess avalanche risk from snowpack layer stratigraphy profiles
Environmental AI
SnowPack evaluates snowpack stability from snow pit observations including layer hardness, grain form, temperature gradient, and interface shear strength test results. The tool identifies persistent weak layers from depth hoar, surface hoar, and faceted crystal formations and calculates stability ratios using the Rutschblock score classification. Spatial interpolation across multiple pit locations generates terrain-referenced stability maps for backcountry route planning.
