From mountain science to engineering practice

↓

My name is Marco Marcer, I am an engineering consultant working across natural hazards, environmental processes, and geospatial technology. My work combines field investigation, numerical modelling, and software development, with experience across the Alps and Arctic.

I work with engineering firms, public authorities, and research institutions, developing assessments, models, and technical tools for solving mountain processes.

Operational avalanche models

Live product since May 2026

Physics-based avalanche simulation SaaS delivered through a field-oriented web application. Numerical modelling, automated workflows, and near-real-time results for mountain professionals.

GWWA avalanche forecasting fieldwork, West Greenland
Greenland Avalanche Service

Operational national service 2021-2024

A research project that grew into an institutionally supported avalanche service. Three seasons of operational bulletins issued on EAWS standards, delivered by a local team.

Permafrost Favourability Index, French Alps
Permafrost hazards in the Alps

Regional scale hazard mapping

From rock glacier inventory to regional hazard mapping for site triage, followed by detailed site diagnosis. A poorly understood hazard gets uncovered.
