What system dependencies are required?

You need Bash 4.0 or higher, the 'uv' package for coordinate lookups, and standard utilities like jq, curl, and bc.

Which regions in Austria are supported by the Skitour skill?

The skill currently supports Tyrol (AT-07), Carinthia (AT-02), Vorarlberg (AT-08), Lower Austria (AT-03), and Styria (AT-06). Salzburg is currently not supported.

Can I look up conditions using GPS coordinates?

Yes, by using the --lat and --lon flags, the skill automatically determines the correct EAWS micro-region using a Python-based point-in-polygon matching system.

How fresh is the avalanche and snow data?

Avalanche bulletins are updated daily around 17:00. Snow depth data from SNOWGRID is typically 24 hours behind due to processing delays, while weather forecasts cover a 48-hour window.
