Abstract
A system and method for outputting weather data associated with a user-specified location based on a user-specified weather inquiry, including weather data output based on user-specified weather conditions, locations output based on a user-specified weather inquiry, notifications output regarding weather-related warnings, and notifications output based on weather-related notification thresholds.
Claims19
A system, comprising:
- a weather information database configured to store weather data associated with a plurality of geographic locations and store user-specified procedures for weather conditions or weather-related warnings associated with user-specified locations;
- a graphical user interface configured to:
- receive a plurality of user-specified locations;
- and
- separately receive a user-defined query from a user, the user-defined query including at least one user-specified weather condition or at least one weather-related warning;
- a user information database configured to store the user-specified locations and the user-defined query received from the user via the graphical user interface;
- and
- an analysis unit configured to:
- determine whether each of the user-specified locations satisfy the user-defined query;
- and
- simultaneously output the user-specified locations that satisfy the user-defined query via the graphical user interface in either a list or a map that includes visual indications of the user-specified locations and a respective user-specified procedure for weather conditions or weather-related warnings associated with the user-specified locations that satisfy the user-defined query.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause a computing device to:
- receive weather data associated with a plurality of geographic locations;
- receive a plurality of user-specified locations;
- separately receive a user-defined query from a user via a graphical user interface, the user-defined query including at least one user-specified weather condition or at least one weather-related warning;
