Information Transfer and Cartographic Design Issues for Avalanche Risk Mapping
BACKGROUND The joint project “LWD Online Maps” between the Avalanche Warning Center Tyrol (Innsbruck, Austria) and the University of Vienna, Department of Geography and Regional Research is now ongoing for several years. Its goal has been and still is to develop and maintain a complex and very powerful database driven online decision support system for cartographic visualization and analysis of...
متن کاملRisk and Avalanche Rescue
The risk to rescuers is of serious concern for the International Commission for Alpine Rescue (ICAR). For good reason, since ICAR receives annually reports of fellow rescuers injured or killed while on missions. In avalanche rescue many call outs occur when the general danger rating is 3 or higher and where conditions are further deteriorating. This means that both the approach and the accident...
متن کاملComputational snow avalanche simulation in forested terrain
Two-dimensional avalanche simulation software operating in three-dimensional terrain is widely used for hazard zoning and engineering to predict runout distances and impact pressures of snow avalanche events. Mountain forests are an effective biological protection measure against avalanches; however, the protective capacity of forests to decelerate or even to stop avalanches that start within f...

متن کاملAvalanche risk management using GRASS GIS
The GRASS system has been used to evaluate avalanche risk. This has been done by combining heterogeneous data. Val di Pejo, located in the north-western Trentino, an Italian alpine region which shows frequent and sometimes huge avalanche phenomena, has been selected as test area. A morphologic risk has been defined in those areas where the slope is between 28° and 55° for a minimum surface of a...
