Global Ski Atlas is a solo project by Jonathan Witcoski. To learn more about me and my other projects, visit witcoskitech.com or connect on LinkedIn.
Why This Was Started
Standardized resort information for skiers
The inspiration came from Storm Skiing, skimap.org, and openskimap.org. I started this due to the lack of standardized resort information—custom maps make it hard to compare. The atlas compiles statistics using OpenStreetMap and QGIS so skiers can compare resorts fairly.
Built with React
Modern, interactive web experiences
Several parts of Global Ski Atlas use React for responsive, interactive UIs—including the resort comparison tool and other data-rich views. React helps deliver fast, component-based interfaces that work well across devices.
