Automatic Translations

Our French forecasts are translated automatically using DeepL, an industry-leading AI translation tool. This helps us provide timely information to French-speaking users. While we strive for accuracy, these translations are not reviewed by professional translators and may contain occasional errors

Why we chose DeepL

DeepL Translator is known for its high-quality translations and is widely used across industries. In our internal testing at Avalanche Canada, DeepL consistently produced the most natural sounding French and best preserved the meaning of technical avalanche safety content.

However, no automated system is perfect. Avalanche safety uses technical terms that may occasionally be translated incorrectly. We monitor these translations regularly to ensure quality. 

Commitment to Continuous Improvement

We recognize the importance of clear information in avalanche safety. Our team regularly reviews automated translations and is exploring ways to fine-tune the system for avalanche-specific terminology. We welcome your input to help improve translation quality.
