This page describes noteworthy changes to InfoEx for the 2015-16 season.
Message from the InfoEx Advisory Group
Dear Subscribers,
This is a message from the InfoEx Advisory Group regarding changes to some aspects of InfoEx. Release for changes is Friday 11 December.
- Hazard ratings will change. The colours will remain the same but ratings will change to a numerical system. Hazard level 1 (green) is the lowest and hazard rating 5 (black) is highest. A help button displays the scale, which includes technical guidance for Likelihood of Triggering and Size/Distribution.
- Confidence ratings will change from Poor/Fair/Good to Low/Moderate/High. A help button provides guidance for the definitions of these terms.
Please expect the following changes to be implemented by next season:
- Stability ratings will be removed from InfoEx.
- The terrain section will be revised to include both a comment field and a set of menu options (e.g. aspect, etc.) to make for quicker and more standardized reporting.
All these changes were discussed and approved at the InfoEx subscribers meeting held in Penticton on May 6th, 2015. If you have comments, concerns or questions, please contact your sector’s IAG representative. Discussion on the InfoEx forum is also encouraged [1]. Supporting documents providing further information, guidance and details plus IAG representative details are here [2].
