Satellite-Based Snow Mapping

Neu0 produces snow cover maps for mountainous areas using satellite data, mainly from the Copernicus programme. To date, snow cover is estimated for some European massifs at a resolution of a few tens of metres. The most recent estimates and some archive data can be accessed by clicking on the corresponding area above or via the menu. The user guide explains how to control the interactive map and how snow cover is represented.

Work is underway to extend the coverage to other geographical areas, to improve the resolution and to reduce estimation errors.

The maps produced by Neu0 are estimates and may contain errors. We invite users to cross-check the information provided on neu0.com with other sources such as weather reports, avalanche risk assessment bulletins, webcams, snow information provided by ski resorts, tourist offices or mountain guide associations.
