Abstract

This paper provides an overview of research on ski lift transportation data, a still heavily underused resource in ski resorts. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper that provides an overview of the efforts done in analyzing ski lift transportation data with the goal to advance the decision-making process in ski resorts. The paper is separated into three major research directions, the first being the clustering of ski lift transportation data. The second research direction is concerned with the exploitation of ski lift transportation data for ski injury research and prevention. The third research direction is concerned with congestion analysis in ski resorts. We provide directions for future research in the conclusion.
