10月10日的Alpin: Avalanche Inclinometer应用程序分析

Alpin turns your iPhone into three simple tools for the backcountry. INCLINOMETER Line the black guide-line up with the slope you intend to ski and read the angle. The indicator changes color to show when you are looking at avalanche-prone terrain. SLIDE ZONE Aim the crosshairs at the top of the slope above you to judge whether you are standing somewhere an avalanche could reach — while your partner is skiing, for instance. The indicator changes color as the exposure increases. WAYFINDING Elevation, coordinates, and compass heading at a glance. SETTINGS Choose metric or imperial, and decimal or degrees/minutes coordinates. Alignment assistance guides your phone into a correctly-oriented position so the reading is honest. PRIVACY Alpin has no account and no servers. Location, camera, and motion are read on your device and never stored or transmitted. Nothing leaves your phone. IMPORTANT Alpin is not a substitute for avalanche education, the forecast, or your rescue gear (beacon, probe, shovel). Use it as a quick spot-check alongside your own judgement — not as the basis for decisions in the field. Use at your own risk.
