Description
High mountains are extreme environments which require ad hoc monitoring systems capable of facing particular weather conditions which change rapidly in these environments. Particularly important is monitoring the various factors affecting snow cover, not only due to the impact that melting snow has on downstream river floods but also to assess the risk of avalanches. These systems can withstand extremely rigid temperatures and are fitted with very tough hardware. They are also designed to ensure that the technological components can be serviced even with high snow cover. Often special off-road vehicles or helicopters must be used for this type of work, and our company does so habitually.
main measurements
- Wind speed and direction
- Measured precipitations
- Atmospheric pressure
- Direct and reflected radiation
- Temperature of the snow on the ground
- Air temperature and humidity
Case history


EV-K2-CNR ASSOCIATION
To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the first climb on K2, CAE, as technological sponsor, supported the EvK2CNR association by providing a weather station to be installed on the last base camp before the summit. This station, installed at approx. 5,000m, is equipped with wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, net radiation and snow height sensors. The station provides real time weather data by means of a satellite router, allowing the measurements required to trace the altitude profile ... continue
REPUBLIC OF TAJIKISTAN
Within the framework of the Lake Sarez Risk Mitigation Project (LSRMP), CAE and its local partner supplied and installed the new monitoring and Early Warning Systems (EWS) for Sarez Lake, Tajikistan. The system is expected to protect the 17 villages located along the Murgab and Bartang rivers and to reduce the vulnerability of the population to natural disasters, including the potential outburst of Lake Sarez. continue
