The geospatial software application provides easy organization for your ski patrol and mountain dispatch.

How Will SmartMountain Benefit You?

SmartMountain provides ski area operators the ability to overview their operations, the related incident documentation for their ski patrol, and a dispatch system for their mountain operations. Ski lifts status in real-time, geospatial incident tracking, all incidents time-stamped at origination, patroller roster management, and patrol activity tracking and all forms and procedures can be developed and managed in-house. SmartMountain creates transparency, clarity, and efficiency in operations and incident management.

  • One system for all equipment – mobile and desktop

  • Dispatch dashboards formatted in-house.

  • All data for any incident collected in one place

  • Accident Investigation tools                                           
  • Information is easily accessible and managed

  • Excellent documentation of incidents

"SmartMountain has been a reliable partner for tracking data for everything from avalanche paths to skier incidents. We love the ability to customize the programming to meet our operational needs, rather than having to adapt our operations to fit the software. In addition to supporting ski patrol needs, Smart Mountain has great applications for infrastructure planning and mapping, as well."

SmartMountain, developed by Earth Analytic, is scalable to your ski area, small or large. The information you will gain from Smart Mountain will allow you to make more informed decision and provide a clear assessment of risk. Whether it be skier incidents, avalanche mitigation, terrain assessment, patroller performance , on hill work assignments, Smart Mountain provides visual feedback as soon a something happens. You can visualize a day, a week, a group of days or a year of metrics as to when and where they have happened.

Dispatch

The dispatch and risk module leverage Esri’s Survey 123 for ArcGIS, providing an intuitive survey-form, data-driven workflow for point feature collection and reporting. Data collected with SmartMountain Survey apps, which are available for both web browsers and native desktop and mobile apps for standard operating systems, are integrated with one or more SmartMountain modules, providing real-time or disconnected and later synchronized workflows for data collection and integration.

Each ski resort decided what they wish to display on the Dispatch Dashboard including on-hill incidents, walk-in incidents, on-hill refusals,  missing persons, work details for different departments, ski patrol rosters for the day, clearances, and sweeps.
