As we retain to engineer the perfect solid food , animals , and kid , scientist have figured out a way to engineer the perfect winter recourse — by using software to pinpoint the upright powder and mountain slopes to build up them on .
New Scientist reportsthat geographers Jordan Silberman and Peter Rees , both prof at the University of Delaware , have develop ageographical information system ( GIS)that allows resort entrepreneur to plug in their resort pipe dream — small and exclusive resort or mega slopes — and the app will geolocate the full weather condition and spot for the venture .
Says New Scientist :
The software then homes in on the best-loved general region and seeks out those fix with the combinations of available state and humidity levels most potential to produce powder nose candy . Among many other factors , it also study availability by road , slope steepness — to work out the danger of avalanches — and the potential erosion from tree felling . A cardinal broker is the ready availability of electrical energy to power the ski lifts .
Will metropolis Olympic citizens committee employ this software to reason their mode into becoming the winning town for future Winter Olympics ? We can already see the genetically engineered slalom skier describe up on their perfectly located ski slopes .
