Patent number: 10488555Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a “Human over-the-loop” or HOTL processing of weather forecasts. A forecaster may create and manage polygonal Filters, Qualifiers and Blurbs (FBQ's) that can be used to adjust the forecast or describe the forecast for the spatial area circumscribed by the FBQ polygon. The filters are placed manually and act to constraint or modify the digital forecast data over some time range of hours or even days into the future. The filters act to limit the machine-sourced forecasts into acceptable or smart thresholds from unacceptable or un-wise thresholds. HOTL is a Forecast on Demand system that delivers voluminous and rapidly changing forecast guidance that flows unimpeded to outward facing publication platforms and is instantly available to end users and consumers.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 2015Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: DTN, LLCInventors: Bruce L.
