Together with the Avalanche Research Program of Simon Fraser University in Canada and the avalanche warning services of the Italian provinces South Tyrol and Trentino, and of the Austrian state Tyrol, we are seeking to find answers to these and other questions. The goal is to support the further development of our products.

For this purpose we have established a community of snow enthusiasts who are willing to give us feedback on our products. You do not need years of experience; in fact, inexperienced users are especially welcome. We are interested in contributors representing all levels of education and training, from snow sport participants who only recently began engaging in activities in open terrain to fully fledged professionals. The study is scheduled to run for several years and include a variety of user-specific questionnaires.

Let’s do it! – If you would like to take part, please click the button “Sign up”, so that we can find out a little more about you. The questionnaires are hosted by the website of Simon Fraser University. The data are anonymized and used only for the stated purpose. We will get in touch with you as soon as the first specific questionnaire becomes available.

It takes approximately 15 minutes to fill our signup survey.

Thank you for taking the time to participate on our research.
