I am really excited to check this out. It is taking a nontraditional approach to avalanche forecasting, more real-time info and more of a go/no go indicator.
Seems right.Apple only.
The crux feature on White Risk is an excellent tool for tour planning. One advantage is that 1:10,000 maps are available throughout Switzerland. These maps are superb. The global open topographic map is not as detailed, nor reliable as the Swiss topographic maps. In addition, the SLF Swiss have integrated their own ATES classification within the White Risk app. In North America, there is not equivalent digital mapping tool for such ski tour route planning.For those who are interested in similar work done elsewhere -- the white risk application available in the Alps is probably the most advanced avalanche terrain mapping application for recreational users (https://whiterisk.ch/). Includes not only slope angles, but run outs and hazards estimations and is built in conjunction with SLF (the swiss forecasting agency).
