Tools (21)

  • search_resorts

    Find ski resorts worldwide by name, country or distance. Returns at most 20 matches and does not expose the bulk resort index.

  • get_conditions

    Get current snow, reported lift and run counts, weather and season state. Lift and run counts are reported status, not guaranteed live.

  • get_forecast

    Get the available daily snow, temperature, freezing level and wind-hold risk forecast, up to 10 requested days.

  • plan_my_day

    Build modelled suggested runs in time order from forecast weather, sun, snow and mapped terrain. Only plans days inside the reported winter season; summer lift or bike-park operation does not count as open for skiing. Easy, intermediate and advanced exclude expert, freeride and extreme terrain; only expert permits it. Suggestions are not a connected route or live piste status.

  • sun_on_the_mountain

    Show modelled sun and shade windows for eight slope aspects, with local terrain-horizon shading where DEM coverage exists.

  • route_on_mountain

    Route between named pistes, lifts, the resort base or latitude,longitude coordinates using mapped OSM pistes and lifts. Names match accent-insensitively and partially (exact, then prefix, then contained words); a piste or lift split into several connected OSM pieces counts as one. A lift used as from resolves to its top station, where you ski away; a lift used as to resolves to its bottom station, unless coordinates say otherwise. Ambiguous names return candidates. Coordinates more than 5 km from the resort are rejected. Easy, intermediate and advanced avoid terrain above that level; only expert permits expert, freeride and extreme terrain.

  • avalanche_danger

    Summarise the regional avalanche bulletin covering a resort: EAWS in Europe, avalanche.org centres in the US and Avalanche Canada, with zone, issuing centre, issue and expiry times and a link to the official forecast. Expired products are never shown as current. Never substitutes for the official bulletin or local advice.

  • mountain_facts

    Read mapped OSM terrain inventory, lift fleet, vertical, longest run, carefully matched Wikidata facts, season dates and modelled snow reliability.

  • where_is_it_snowing

    Rank the freshest recently reported snow from the cached EM Snow home-page ranking.

  • best_time_to_go

    Get historical snow odds from the local ERA5 archive and quiet-week guidance where the crowd scorer covers the resort.

  • season_recap

    Summarise the most recent completed ski season from the local ERA5 archive first.

  • snow_reliability

    Get an explainable snow-reliability score from long-run ERA5 snow depth.

  • nearby_resorts

    Find nearby resorts from the local EM Snow resort index.

  • get_webcams

    Get nearby webcam images and their source links, with the required provider credit.

  • get_snow_reports

    Get recent visible community reports, including whether each came from the website or was relayed by an AI assistant.

  • watch_resort

    Return a one-tap EM Snow URL where the person can watch a resort and optionally add dates. This tool does not collect email.

  • add_snow_report

    Only relay a report from a person who is at, or was just at, the resort. Never invent a report. The report goes live immediately and is labelled as relayed via an AI assistant.

  • suggest_resort

    Suggest a missing resort for human review. This never adds it directly to the resort index.

  • get_extended_outlook

    Get a 16-day daily outlook (snowfall, temperatures, freezing level, maximum gusts and, for the first days, precipitation probability) from EM Snow's self-hosted GFS and ECMWF IFS models. Days 1 to 7 overlap get_forecast; days 8 to 16 are low-confidence trend guidance only.

  • get_resort_media

    Get images for a resort that vision-capable assistants can show: nearby webcams with provider credit, a Wikimedia Commons photo with its per-file licence, author and source page, the EM Snow sun and shade teaser where one exists, and the resort page link. No trail-map image is available.

  • fly_this_mountain

    Get a link that plays a simulated 3D tour of a resort in the EM Snow flyby (lifts up, named runs down, on the mapped piste network), or a tour of runs you name. Pick names match like route_on_mountain; ambiguous names return candidates with picker ids. Status is ready, limited (small mapped network, the tour may be short) or unavailable (too few named runs or no linking lifts; the resort page is returned instead).
