Abstract
An apparatus, method, and non-transitory medium for betting on weather predictions are disclosed herein. A plurality of longitude and latitude coordinate pairs may be received from a remote device. The display device may render data on a graphical user interface representing a binary option based on whether a storm will make landfall within the certain radius. The display device may show a plurality of landfall probabilities on the map. A request to purchase the binary option may be received. It may be determined whether the landfall location corresponds to a zip code associated with the given longitude latitude pair in the memory.
Claims17
An apparatus comprising
- a memory;
- a display device;
- a network interface to communicate with at least one remote device;
- at least one processor to:
- receive from a remote device a plurality of longitude and latitude coordinate pairs;
- generate in the memory an association between a given longitude and latitude pair and each zip code within a certain radius from the given longitude and latitude pair;
- render on the display device a graphical representation of a map and a circle around the given longitude and latitude pair on the map, a radius of the circle corresponding to the certain radius;
- render on the display device a graphical user interface comprising data representing a binary option based on whether a storm will make landfall within the certain radius;
- render on the display device a plurality of landfall probabilities on the map;
- receive data indicative of a request to purchase the binary option from the graphical user interface;
- receive from a remote device a landfall location of the storm;
- and
- identify whether the landfall location corresponds to a zip code associated with the given longitude and latitude pair in the memory.
A method comprising
- receiving, by at least one processor, from a remote device a plurality of longitude and latitude coordinate pairs;
- generating in a memory, by the at least one processor, an association between a given longitude and latitude pair and each zip code within a certain radius from the given longitude and latitude pair;
- rendering, by the at least one processor, a graphical representation of a map on a display device and a circle around the given longitude latitude pair on the map, a radius of the circle corresponding to the certain radius;
- rendering, by the at least one processor, a graphical user interface on the display device with data representing a binary option, the binary option being based on whether a storm will make landfall within the certain radius;
- rendering, by the at least one processor, on the display device a plurality of landfall probabilities on the map;
- receiving, by the at least one processor, data indicative of a request to purchase the binary option via the graphical user interface;
- receiving, by the at least one processor, from a remote device a landfall location of the storm;
- and
- identifying, by the at least one processor, whether the landfall location corresponds to a zip code associated with the given longitude latitude pair in the memory.
A non-transitory computer readable medium with instructions stored therein which upon execution instruct at least one processor to:
- receive from a remote device a plurality of longitude and latitude coordinate pairs;
- generate in a memory an association between a given longitude and latitude pair and each zip code within a certain radius from the given longitude and latitude pair;
- render on a display device a graphical user interface comprising a map and a circle around the given longitude latitude pair on the map, a radius of the circle corresponding to the certain radius;
- render, on the display device, data representing a binary option based on whether a storm will make landfall within the certain radius;
- receive data indicative of a request to purchase the binary option;
- receive from a remote device a landfall location of the storm;
- and
- identify whether the landfall location corresponds to a zip code associated with the given longitude latitude pair in the memory.
