Understand and anticipate

Through analysis modules assisted by artificial intelligence.

These analysis modules are available to you at no extra cost. Some are funded or co-funded by the Canton of Valais. They work on your data, and the analyses you produce here remain yours: the cantonal administration does not use them. You open them when you need them, you edit your reports and you decide what you do with them. These modules are made for you.

The legal framework

Incursion and crossing

Establishes the crossings of Spot Geo-Zones (GZP) and Official Geo-Zones (GZO), and the incursions into Exclusion Geo-Zones (GZE), with timestamps, durations and coordinates. The report exports to PDF.

Herd behaviour

Herd fidelity

Continuously measures the distance between your livestock guardian dog and the nearest animal of its herd, day and night, against the official test thresholds. The test replays on an animated 2D map.

available on

Pack work

Reads how your livestock guardian dogs share the work around the herd: who guards what, when, and how the pack reorganises. With an animated 2D map.

available on

Hunting behaviour

Rereads each outing of your livestock guardian dogs beyond the last ring: duration, distance, speed, time of day, alone or as a group. Tells patrol, repelling and hunting apart, dog by dog, and says what the calculation concludes. Each outing replays on an animated 2D map; the hunting report exports to PDF.

available on

External disturbances

Shows when and from where your groups were disturbed, whether an at-risk episode followed, and how your livestock guardian dogs responded. With an animated 2D map and your markers.

Energy and output

Performances

Compares individual and collective performances of your animals over the period of your choice.

CEL and CER

The CEL, locomotor energy cost, measures the effort the terrain really costs each of your animals, compared with its own baseline. The CER, felt effort coefficient, adds what the animal actually lives through: the heat it endures, the altitude and its species. Two indicators owned by Alpes-éco, read over the season.
