Thanks to
the software developer Tobias Kupek (www.tkupek.eu)
it is possible to interact with the avalanche report by voice via Google
Assistant and as Alexa-Skill. In a conversation with the feature, you can ask
for the current avalanche situation in a specific region, as well as get the danger levels explained.
How do I ask Google Assistant correctly?
To get the
desired information from the Google Assistant, you can simply start with "Talk to Avalanche Report",
from then on you will be guided by the Assistant.
It is also
possible to ask directly for specific locations or topics, e.g:
"Ask avalanche report about the danger level in Innsbruck"
"Ask Avalanche
Report for Stubai Glacier"
or
"Ask Avalanche Report
what are the danger levels“
The information is then read out and a direct link to the
website www.avalanche.report is available for more detailed information.
