Abstract:

A system and method for generating and delivering to users combined personalized traffic and weather report and alerts including forecast traffic and weather conditions. A user defines a travel route of interest and alert conditions. Based on current weather information, weather forecast information, current traffic information, and forecast traffic conditions a combined traffic and weather report for the user specified route is generated and delivered to the user via the internet and/or a wireless communications channel. The combined report may include a graphic display on a map background showing traffic conditions with a graphic representation of weather conditions overlaid thereon along with a tabular representation of traffic and weather conditions including forecast traffic and weather conditions for a plurality of future time periods. Alerts are generated and delivered when the traffic and weather alert conditions are satisfied.

Weather Central, LP - Madison WI

International Classification:

G01C 21/00

US Classification:

701465, 702 3

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for generating a weather index mapped to a road segment for a particular time frame includes receiving weather condition information for a plurality of time periods, parsing the weather condition information to determine weather conditions for a road segment defined by a starting point and an ending point for the plurality of time periods, and generating a plurality of weather indices for the road segment. Each weather index is associated with one of the plurality of time periods and is representative of a predicted traffic impact based on historical information of the received weather conditions for the road segment. The plurality of time periods includes at least one future time period and the weather condition information includes forecasted weather information.

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/014000

Abstract:

A system and method for targeting the delivery of information content to selected potential recipients thereof using a combination of environmental and demographic information related to such potential recipients. Environmental information used may include weather information, such as weather forecast information obtained from weather forecast models. Demographic information includes locations of interest, lifestyle, and other demographic information for potential recipients. Based on a combination of such environmental and demographic information, selected information content, such as advertising information, is targeted for delivery to selected ones of the potential recipients to whom such content is likely to be most valuable. Content may be delivered to the recipient in any manner, including via an e-mail or Internet web page.

Abstract:

A system for targeting electronic advertising using weather related parameters simplifies the complexity of such a targeting system by using predefined templates that reduce multiple weather data into a quantitative metric that may be used in real time for automatic selection among a variety of different competing advertisements. The templates may conflate not only weather related data but also information about the consumer and may direct that the weather related data be from dates before or after the date of the delivery of the advertisement. Method of refining the templates and automatically assigning them are also disclosed.
