Development and deployment of innovative sensors for contactless and non-contact measurement of snow profiles Phase 6 – Data analysis during second operational test season

This project involves evaluating the first operational data from sensors developed in preliminary projects using UAV/UAS for contactless and non-contact recording of snow data. This method enables interference-free measurement of temperature, humidity, pressure and movement on avalanche slopes. The sensors are deployed in a test field in open terrain using UAV/UAS. A sensor network consisting of several sensor measuring boxes is set up at specific test locations. Regular data collection is carried out via a mobile base station which is stationary or mobile and located on a UAV. Furthermore, a concept is being developed on how avalanche commissions can use the data to assess local avalanche slopes.
