这Idre Fjäll resortin central Sweden recently hosted for the fourth time the Ski Cross World Cup arranged by the International Ski Federation, FIS. Ski cross is a fast-paced ski sport with rapid turns and high jumps where more than one skier racing down the course ski simultaneously. The sport is well-known for being public-friendly and fun to watch.

Building the ski cross course

这图标高山雪管理解决方案来自Leica Geosystems用于准备滑雪横路和测量跳跃的确切高度并转弯以确保安全公正的竞争。该课程的设计模型由安装在雪地美容器上的机器控制解决方案读取，并基于夏季进行的裸露地形测量。可以计算确切的积雪高度以构建课程。

“我们even used the iCON alpine solution to measure the heights of the saved snow piles, and we also used UAVs [Unmanned Aerial Vehicles] to calculate exactly how much saved snow we had and how much technical snow we needed to produce,”IdreFjäll的Snow Groumer运营商JonasPålsson解释说。

Pålsson与Icon Alpine解决方案合作了几年 -Idre Fjäll was the first ski resort in Scandinavia to adopt the 3D snow depth measurement and snow management solution from Leica Geosystems。

“我一直在常规斜率和步道上使用图标高山解决方案。我使用该解决方案来测量深度，并尽早计划是否需要分配更多的积雪。这不仅节省了宝贵的时间，还节省了成本，因为可以更准确地计算出雪的需求，”explains Pålsson.

IDREFjäll从位于顶部的本地GNSS基站开始。到ensure continuous connectivity and precise measurements对于机器，度假村现在订阅HxGN SmartNet, the world’s largest reference station network, as part of the Leica iCON alpine solution.

在IDREFJäll上实施环境友好的技术

这planning of a ski cross competition starts long before the tournament takes place. Every year, Idre Fjäll saves snow from one season to another under a2-3毫米双层毛毡地毯。

“This year we have saved a total of260,000立方米的雪,”explains Lars Fagrell, operations manager at Idre Fjäll.“我们救了雪从去年的滑雪场地se, and even though 2018 was a record warm summer, we still had snow to build the course with less use of technical snow.”

Idre Fjäll is adopting different technological solutions, such as the iCON alpine solution, to stay environmentally-friendly a be a snow-sure destination.

“我们produce a total of1,500,000 cubic metres of technical snow每个季节，”费格雷尔说。“If we cansave 10 to 20 per cent of snow从上一年开始，这对我们来说意味着很大的成本。Leica Icon Alpine解决方案有助于我们控制雪量，因此我们可以将精确的雪高降雪和节省的积雪。” </p>

Efficient snow management

Idre Fjäll also hosted the Speed Ski World Cup this year and created the steepest prepared track ‘Chocken’, or ‘shock’, for this purpose. Speed滑雪者可以达到每小时超过200公里的速度– this requires a100％的构建和修饰坡度。到create the steepest groomed ski slope in Scandinavia, Idre Fjäll is using the iCON alpine solution.

举办大型比赛需要有效的雪管理helps to extend the skiing season for the entire resort。IdreFjäll配备了Icon Alpine解决方案，准备打开越野滑雪道和早期的高山斜坡，冬季季节将持续到复活节后一周，夏季活动接管。
