Technical requirements: Procurement of avalanche monitoring at Stavbrekkfonna fv. 63 Oppland fylke (County Road 63 Oppland County)
Statens vegvesen Region øst (the Norwegian Public Roads Administration Eastern Region) wants to measure sliding motions in the snow cover at Stavbrekkfonna by County Road 63 at Breiddalen in Skjåk kommune (municipality).
