Snow profile analysis is used as a tool by ski hill Ski Patrol and Snow Safety professionals to help determine whether specific layers in the snow pack are subject to skier initiated avalanches. This is accomplished by digging snow pits in the target areas and recording layer snow temperatures, grain sizes and types, layer hardness and other parameters. Various shear tests are performed to assess the stability of the snow pack. This information is presented in a "Snow Profile". Snowpro Plus+ is the premier snow profile graphing software which has been used for over 15 years world wide to quickly and accurately produce the snow profile graphs.

Snowpro Plus+ is designed to provide high quality plots of snow cover profile information according to the International Classification for Seasonal Snow on the Ground (ICSI). It incorporates a method for plotting results of Ramsonde hardness measurements, the shovel shear test described in the National Research Council of Canada, and Canadian Avalanche Association guidelines (2007) and also the Rutshblock system advocated by researchers at the University of Calgary (Jamieson and Johnston, 1992). Other "Shear Tests" include, Compression, Shear Frame, Deep Tap, Extended Column, and Propagation Saw. Layer hardness can be plotted according to a system that approximates a ram profile. Snow and Shear Layers can be tagged with a "Nickname" to track layers over progressive profiles. The save formats are based on XML, CSV, and JSON allowing easy data interchange with other related applications.
