Not all 4WD tracks are equal. Some are solid afternoon runs. Others need properly equipped vehicles and a plan if things go wrong. Contour scores every track in Western Australia using the Track Accessibility Profile (TAP) for difficulty and the Recovery Risk Index (RRI) for recovery conditions - terrain, coverage, distance from sealed road - all measured at 500m resolution.

Contour scores 4WD tracks using the Track Accessibility Profile (TAP), a 0-5 difficulty scale covering surface type, terrain, water crossings, track width, and distance from sealed road. The Recovery Risk Index (RRI) scores how difficult recovery would be if you got stuck - factoring in mobile coverage, proximity to population centres, and seasonal access. Both scores are calculated at 500m resolution.
