System and method for searching for, collecting and generating mold spore data for mold reports using climate codes

A system for generating mold spore data reports comprising:

• a computer;
• at least one database in communication with the computer which contains information correlating subregion codes of a predetermined geographic area with ones of predetermined climate classification codes associated with each of the subregion codes, the database further including available historical mold spore data for the subregion codes;
• the computer configured to:
• receive an input indicating a target subregion code, wherein the target subregion code identifies an area falling within the predetermined geographic area;
• identify a specific one of the predetermined climate classification codes that is associated with the target subregion code;
• use a stored rule set to make a determination if a sufficient number of other subregions codes, which match the target subregion code, are present within the predetermined geographic area which have at least a predetermined minimum quantity of the historical mold spore data available for use;
• and
• obtain portions of the stored historical mold spore data from the database which is associated with ones of the subregion codes falling within the predetermined geographic area that have the specific one of the predetermined climate classification codes associated therewith.

A method for obtaining mold spore data for analysis, the method comprising:

• providing at least one database containing information correlating subregion codes of a predetermined geographic area with ones of predetermined climate classification codes associated with each of the subregion codes, the database further including available historical mold spore data for the subregion codes;
• receiving an input indicating a target subregion code, wherein the target subregion code identifies an area falling within the predetermined geographic area;
• using an electronic component to identify a specific one of the predetermined climate classification codes that is associated with the target subregion code;
• and
• using the electronic component to obtain portions of the stored historical mold spore data from the database which is associated with ones of the subregion codes falling within the predetermined geographic area that have the specific one of the predetermined climate classification codes associated therewith.
