Avalanche is a generic word that describes various phenomena. In the case of snow avalanches, this diversity is closely linked to the diversity of properties of materials present within the flow. This is why the study of an avalanche site must be performed by an expert with a good field knowledge.

For alpine countries, avalanches represent one of the major hazards, threatening people in villages as well as on highways and railways. Measures have to be taken to reduce avalanche risk: Avalanche hazard mapping as a basis for land use planning is one of the most cost-effective measures to reduce or even avoid avalanche exposure.

Digital Animation of Powder-Snow Avalanches
ACM Transactions on GraphicsPowder-snow avalanches are natural phenomena that result from an instability in the snow cover on a mountain relief. It begins with a dense avalanche core moving fast down the mountain. During its evolution, the snow particles in the avalanche front mix with the air, forming a suspended turbulent cloud of snow dust surrounding the dense snow avalanche.

Avalanche occurrence is closely related to the local meteorological conditions which may be quite variable in mountain topography. To investigate these conditions, and to provide information for avalanche forecasting, we designed and built a weather station which is currently relaying information to a base station from a remote site.
