ALERT A USER OF A WEATHER CHANGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17957244 titled 'ALERT A USER OF A WEATHER CHANGE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application abstract describes a system, method, and computer program product for generating an alert to a user for a change between weather conditions. The application determines the first weather condition at a geographic location when a user enters a structure, predicts a second weather condition at the same location while the user remains in the structure, and alerts the user for a change between the two conditions.

  • Geographic location-based weather alert system
  • Predicting weather conditions based on user's location and time
  • Alerting users of weather changes while they are indoors

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various industries such as:

  • Weather forecasting
  • Mobile applications for outdoor activities
  • Emergency response systems

Problems Solved

This technology addresses the following issues:

  • Lack of real-time weather updates for users indoors
  • Inability to predict sudden weather changes while indoors
  • Ensuring user safety by providing timely weather alerts

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved user safety and preparedness for weather changes
  • Enhanced user experience with personalized weather alerts
  • Increased efficiency in planning outdoor activities

Potential Commercial Applications

A potential commercial application for this technology could be:

  • Weather app developers integrating this feature for enhanced user experience

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be existing weather apps that provide alerts based on user's location, but may not specifically focus on predicting weather changes while the user is indoors.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system determine the accuracy of the predicted weather conditions?

The abstract does not mention how the system verifies the accuracy of the predicted weather conditions before alerting the user.

What types of structures are considered for generating weather alerts?

It is not clear from the abstract which types of structures are taken into account for predicting and alerting users of weather changes.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for generating an alert to a user for a change between weather conditions. An application can be operated by a processor to perform operations include determining a first weather condition at a geographic location at a first time when a user of the device enters a structure located within the geographic location. In addition, the operations can include, based on information received from the server, predicting a second weather condition at the geographic location at a second time while the user remains in the structure. Afterwards, the operations can include alerting the user for a change between the first and second weather conditions.
