:: Sponsorship: Mountain Web Cams and Weather Stations

A unique sponsorship opportunity - last winter our White Lady webcams on CairnGorm and Mountain Spirit Webcam in Aviemore were viewed over a million times!! Imagine what a new more extensive and user interactive webcam and weather station network could achieve.

From a small supporting advert displayed next to a local camera for your business, through to a multi-year sponsor partnership your business can help enable the creation of a unique national network of high quality high mountain web cams and integrated automatic weather stations providing unique real time views and data via a mixture of long distance WiFi, WiFi Mesh, GPRS/3G modems, APRS and ADSL technologies often deployed in what admittedly can be one of the most hostile environments on Earth! All while being able to reach beyond the confines of on-grid mains power to bring web-cams to some amazing, remote and previously unimaginable locations.

Of interest not just to skiers, boarders, climbers, winter walkers, ski tourers but also to meteorological enthusiasts, and even just those who love mountains, great views and the Highlands of Scotland. The potential reach is far beyond the winter mountain sports market, thus the potential rewards for the sponsor is equally huge in scope.

A mix of technologies will be used, various designs and formats of cameras, plus automatic Weather stations at various locations and altitudes allowing a real-time 3d feel for the weather on the Scottish Mountains 24/7/365. Winterhighland is uniquely placed to call on the IT, web design, radio engineering, meteorological and mountaineering skills required to bring such a challenging venture to fruition in the Scottish Mountains.

:: Advertising: Snow Report Banner Advertising

Winterhighland uniquely provides both the very latest information via the Official Reports updated in real time from the mountains, plus our own detailed independent snow editorials. These coupled with the General Situation and Pix from the Slopes, provide comprehensive and impartial info from reporters with an intimate knowledge of Scotland's Resorts. Thus providing a superb opportunity for geographically targeting adverts, yet with the option to reach all site visitors via the General Situation page or run of site adverts.

• Leaderboard/Skyscraper: Run of Resorts - Your advert displayed across all five Scottish Snowsport Area's report pages.

:: Advertising: Report Servers
