- Strata is a mobile app for planning and tracking backcountry ski tours and mountaineering routes with safety in mind.
- It integrates multiple data sources, including avalanche bulletins, slope angles, aspects, weather, and fire perimeters, into one platform.
- The app provides a clear safety verdict in plain English, assessing risks like wind slabs and changing forecasts, unlike apps that just present raw data.
- Key features include offline maps, route planning, live crew location sharing, and one-tap SOS functionality in emergencies.
- A Pro version offers advanced route building that snaps to trail geometry, offline map downloads, unlimited saved routes, and trip reports.
- Strata prioritizes user privacy, does not sell or share data for advertising, and uses location data only for core functionalities like mapping and crew sharing.
