This map uses elevation data from the Shuttle Radar Topography mission to visualize Afghanistan's 1800 meter winter snowline. It features provincial & district data from AIMS and roads from Open Street Map.

The original goal in creating a winter map of Afghanistan was to help show where the weather might cause problems in a winter election.
