Snow measurements and modeling to support sustainable global water supplies

Building on a 7-year legacy with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Airborne Snow Observatories Inc. is uniquely positioned to provide basin-scale inventories of mountain snow water resources worldwide.

ASO technologies and applications have been developed in close partnership with water managers in the western US – these enduring and evolving partnerships remain a core strength of our approach to water management decision support.

With industry-leading geospatial technology, innovative leadership and application support, and the exclusive license to the data processing workflow we developed at JPL, ASO Inc. is leading the deployment and integration of this paradigm-shifting approach to snow water resource monitoring and management.

“[ASO] is, without a doubt, the most significant development in the history of snow surveys.”
