<\/p>\n

Here is a list of updates:<\/p>\n

ROADMAP – 
API<\/b> – currently the API is only available internally, however, there are plans to lauch it externally with user sign up required.  Currently (Oct 26, 2023), 42 fields of data are available.<\/p>\n

freshsnow.jp currently has two main page, namely, an overview of all mountains in one map.  This is the freshsnow_ski_index page.  This is an example<\/a>.  The other page only shows data for a single resort.  This is the freshsnow_ski_resort page.  Here is an example of Zao, here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Single Resort View Page<\/b> (freshsnow_ski_resort)
– to add – list of ski pistes in datatables.
– to add – when clicking on the helichopter, screen will virtually ski any piste
– to add –  when clicking the piste name, it will be highlighted in the screen
– to add – route slope profile to be shown in map.<\/p>\n

Overview of All Resorts Page<\/b> (freshsnow_ski_index)
– to add – Piste difficult by kilometers but grouped into beginner, intermediate and advanced.
– to add – snow forecast and searchable in the main ski_index overview.  In essence, you will be able to sort all mountains my snow fall today, tomorrow, next 7 days.
– to add – crowd data – see which slopes are being used the most.
– to add – allow user signup.
– to-add – allow users to add pistes, especially off piste (backcountry).

any suggestions?

Version History<\/b>

Jan 4, 2024
added <\/b>– links to google street maps and osm street maps from individual ski resort maps
fix<\/b> – on a few individual ski resorts, stats of lifts, pistes, etc, were not displaying.  
fix<\/b> – revised the display of key resort data for individual ski resorts.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nov 23 – 2023
added<\/strong> – % beginner, intermediate and expert to main fresh_snow_index page.<\/p>\n

Nov 5 -2023
change <\/b>– Added 30 more ski resorts 
Before:  265 resorts, 3217 trails, 1267 lifts
After:  295 resorts, 3483 trails, 1403 lifts <\/p>\n

Nov 3 – 2023
fix <\/b>– button layouts around datatables<\/p>\n

Oct 26 – 2023
change <\/b>– moved to Elementor for web theme design.  Changed the map to full width.
change <\/b>– refactered code to run faster with less energy consumption on cell phones.
added <\/b>– full screen view on desktop browser version
added <\/b>– home button.  If you are zoomed in, hit the home button in the map and it will zoom all the way out.
added <\/b>– legend control added.  Click the L in the map and a side bar appears to show piste difficulty legend.  Your can also change the base map (2 maps available).
added <\/b>– show\/hide button so fields can be selected.<\/p>\n

Mar 26, 2023 – fix<\/strong> – Fixed piste difficulty errors in ski_resorts.js that incorrectly grouped all difficulty levels as unrated.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mar 21, 2023 – change<\/strong> – Changed codeigniter to wordpress – While I absolutely love codeigniter, a php framework, I have ported most of the code to wordpress. What took me several years to write a semi decent content management system (CMS), I have literally done the same thing in 2 weeks with wordpress. It was of course a great learning experience.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mar 21, 2023 – change<\/strong> – Moved domains from freshsnow.io to freshsnow.jp – As I only intend to focus on Japan, and that’s large enough, I have forwarded traffic from freshsnow.io to freshsnow.jp.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mar 21, 2023 – added<\/strong> – Icons – I am trying to keep the GUI as intuitive as possible. The main ski resort search panel<\/a> now has fresh icons while the ski resort details page<\/a>, graphically shows over the piste difficulty as a doughnut graph.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mar 21, 2023 – fixed<\/strong> – Calculation Errors – several calculation errors were fixed and in particular, piste length.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
