Weather, snowpack and danger ratings data for automated avalanche danger level predictions

Each set includes the meteorological variables (resampled 24-hour averages) and the profile variables extracted from the simulated profiles for each of the weather stations of the IMIS network in Switzerland, and, the danger ratings for dry-snow conditions assigned to the location of the station. The data set of RF 1 contains the danger ratings published in the official Swiss avalanche bulletin, and the data set of RF 2 is a quality-controlled subset of danger ratings.

These data are the basis of the following publication: Pérez-Guillén, C., Techel, F., Hendrick, M., Volpi, M., van Herwijnen, A., Olevski, T., Obozinski, G., Pérez-Cruz, F., and Schweizer, J.: Data-driven automated predictions of the avalanche danger level for dry-snow conditions in Switzerland, Nat. Hazards Earth Syst. Sci., 22, 2031–2056, https://doi.org/10.5194/nhess-22-2031-2022, 2022.
