The objective of the application is to provide skiers, in one place, with all the information enabling them to choose and enjoy their skiing days as much as possible.

SKICAST takes into account changes in weather and snow transformation to forecast realistic, objective and precise snow conditions.

We have created 3 types of relevant information for skiers, and this for the next 7 days:
- Detailed snow conditions
- The ease of skiing indices
- The prevailing weather that will be found at the station during opening hours (9:00 AM - 4:00 PM)

Detailed snow conditions:

We have grouped the ski conditions into 9 different situations, which are represented by intuitive icons.

Ease of skiing:

These indices are a simple way for intermediate skiers and families to get an idea of the overall conditions present at the resort. For example, 20 cm (8 inches) of snowfall precipitation will excite expert skiers and it is for this reason that the "powder alert" is offered; but for families, a B + ease index will be indicated due to the greater difficulty.

Prevailing weather forecast:

The program only displays relevant weather information for skiers during the day at the resort.

We aim for at least 90% accuracy in our forecasts.
