Problem
Mountain resorts face frequent safety challenges such as avalanches, deep‑snow immersion, snowmachine accidents, and lost guests, which require rapid detection and precise location data to prevent injuries and coordinate rescue efforts.
Solution
Got‑U delivers a safety platform that continuously monitors ski areas using proprietary algorithms for avalanche detection, deep‑snow immersion, and snowmachine incidents. When a skier or rider becomes inverted, immobilized, or is lost, the system automatically generates an alert with the exact GPS location and sends it to dispatch and patrol teams. Dispatch can also initiate alerts manually, providing two intuitive recovery paths for lost guests. The platform offers a real‑time, comprehensive view of the entire mountain, enabling faster crisis response, better fleet coordination, and improved overall safety for guests and patrollers.
Target Audience
Primary customers are ski resort operators, mountain safety managers, and ski patrol organizations that need automated incident detection and coordinated response capabilities across their ski areas.
Features
- Proprietary, patents‑pending algorithms that detect avalanches, deep‑snow immersion, and snowmachine collisions in real time
