The snow cover monitoring, the forecast of its evolution and the estimation of the avalanche risk are part of the task of Météo-France. The heterogeneity of the mountains induced by the terrain makes the snow-meteorological forecasting of these territories particularly difficult. In addition, there is a strong social demand for reliable snow and avalanche forecasts, with an ever increasing level of demand for the quality of forecasts as well as their form and geographical extent. The supply of systematic observations of avalanche activity to snow forecasters and other mountain actors would allow a better qualification of predicted situations in relation to past events and would contribute to the improvement of avalanche risk management.
