This document describes the functionality of the Operation overview layer of the Map view of the InfoEx report.

The goal of the Operation overview map layer is to provide quick access to summarized information from individual Infoex subscribers and context about where the observations in the current report are coming from.

Layout

Fig. 1: Operation overview layer of map view of InfoEx report.
Fig. 2: Observation overview pop-up.

The operation overview map layer shows the operation areas of all of the operations that contributed observations and assessment to the present InfoEx report as yellow outlines (Fig. 1).

All of the contributing operations are listed under the Observation overview label in the layer hierarchy panel left of the map (Fig. 1).

Functionality

  • Click on the Operation overview label in the layer hierarchy panel to show/hide this layer on the map.
  • Click on the operation name in the layer hierarchy panel to directly zoom the map to its operation area and open the observation overview pop-up balloon (see below for more details).
  • Click on the check box next to the operation name in the layer hierarchy panel to show/hide the outline of its operation area on the map.
  • Click on the operation area of an operation on the map to view the observation overview pop-up balloon (Fig. 2). The pop-up balloon currently offers the following information:
Weather Tmin Lowest minimum temperature recorded at weather sites by this operation during the time period of report.
Tmax Highest maximum temperature recorded at weather sites by this operation during the time period of report.
Tpres Latest present temperature recorded at weather sites by this operation during the time period of report.
Wind Latest wind observations recorded at weather sites by this operation during the time period of report.
HN24 Total sum of HN24 observations recorded at weather sites by this operation during the time period of report.
HS Latest HS observations recorded at weather sites by this operation during the time period of report.
Avalanches Num Total number of avalanches observed by this operation during the time period of report. This is different from the total number of avalanche observations. The following conversions have been used to convert categorical to numerical values: Isolated (2), Several (7), Numerous (12).
Max Size Absolute highest avalanche size (size typ or size max) reported by this operation during the time period of report.
Trig List of avalanche triggers reported by this operation during the time period of report.
