What do our customers say?
“The AADS (Autonomous Avalanche Detection System) supports us considerably in assessing the current avalanche situation and enables us to better understand the regional avalanche conditions. As a result, we have been able to verify the accuracy of our forecasts and significantly reduce closure times of the highway by more than 40% of the annual average this season.”
District Avalanche Supervisor
Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure
“The glacier monitoring system works very well. The interferometric radar predicted several glacier detachments a couple of days in advance. Thanks to the avalanche radar we are able to keep running our train operations as the radar would stop our trains in a save place in case of a larger detachment.”
Head of Infrastructure
Jungfraubahnen AG
“The alarm system works very well! It supports us in monitoring the road Taesch-Zermatt. Every single avalanche movement in the area is shown which let’s us assess the situation a lot better.”
Chief Observation Officer Winter
Regional Safety Service Mattertal
“The monitoring system is very user friendly. It is a perfect tool to increase the road safety as well as to analyse and document events easily.”
Hydraulic Engineer
Civil Engineering Office Canton Bern
“I am totally excited about the system. The avalanche radar is always running, even after an avalanche. In the past, it always took a while to replace trigger lines.”
Head of Safety Department
Municipality Zermatt
“The avalanche and people radar installed on Belalp in December 2018 convinced us very quickly and made our work much easier. The real-time information and images provide us with the data and information we need before, during and after an avalanche blast, which helps us make the right decisions.”
