Features.

InfoEx is where your operation records observations, assesses the hazard, and decides how to operate. It’s the platform built by Canada’s avalanche community and used by professional operations around the world.

Everyone on the same page

InfoEx isn’t just a record; it’s how your team communicates. Because everyone works in the same system, the whole operation shares one picture of the day, from the morning meeting onward.

An InfoEx team view, where a whole operation works from the same observations and plan.

Structured workflows

Workflows give your avalanche safety program a consistent structure, with the sequence tailored to how your operation runs. In a single workflow you can:

view your reports and reference documents
enter observations
track the snowpack and persistent weak layers
assess the hazard
set your operational plan

It’s all saved consistently, in one place, for the record.

New

Snow profiles

Build full snow profiles right in InfoEx: the snowpack layer by layer, with your stability tests, shown as a chart or a table. Capture them at the desk or in the field on your phone, and every profile becomes part of the same shared record as the rest of your day.

Hazard assessment

Assess and document avalanche hazard using the frameworks the profession relies on: avalanche problems and hazard ratings per the Conceptual Model of Avalanche Hazard, persistent-weak-layer tracking, and full snow profiles. Each assessment is saved as a dated record, so you can track how the hazard develops over time, not just where it stands today.

New

Build your own forms

Design forms with checkboxes, dropdowns, and logic to capture the data your operation needs, alongside the standard shared observations. Keep them private, or share them like everything else.

A custom InfoEx form, built with the fields an operation needs.

Controlled data entry

Individual sign-ons and user levels let you control how data enters the system. Senior staff can submit directly (one-stage), while less-experienced staff can have their observations reviewed before they’re published (two-stage).

Data views

See your data the way you need to read it. Build fully customizable report views, defined once for your whole operation or personally for you, and display them as tables or geospatially on the map.

In the field, on any device

InfoEx goes where your team goes. Record and review on phone or tablet, in the field or at the desk, online or off, with everything syncing when you reconnect.
