Avalanche Control Configuration

REQUIREMENTS
Permission	Operation Administrator and higher
Connectivity	Online only

This page explains how to configure data entry for the avalanche control extension. See the avalanche control module for configuration information for the avalanche control extension workflow module used for planning prior to field operations. The configuration is found in 'Operation Settings' accessed from the administration menu (cog wheel) (Fig. 1).

Background

The avalanche control configuration (Fig. 1) allows you to specify the settings you would like to use for your avalanche control data entry. This configuration is part of your operation settings and apply to all of the run list steps included in any of your workflows.

When you first subscribe to the run list extension, you have a default list of ratings (Fig. 1):

• Green
• Yellow
• Red
• Not considered

Each of these ratings are associated with a keyboard shortcut for most efficiently rating locations during a workflow, a color and an icon for displaying the ratings within the workflow step, the workflow summary, the PDF print out and any location status reports.

With the exception of the 'Not considered' rating, it is possible to modify the default ratings and add additional ratings to create a configuration that fits the needs of your operation.
