  • Patent number: 11372132
    Abstract: A system and method for outputting analysis regarding weather and/or environmental conditions at a venue for an event by determining correlations between the results of past events and historical weather and/or environmental conditions, determining current and/or forecasted weather and/or environmental conditions (for example, using a dense mesonet of sensors in and around an event/venue), and generating analysis based on the current and/or forecasted weather and/or environmental conditions and the correlations between the results of past events and the historical weather and/or environmental conditions.

  • Patent number: 11150378
    Abstract: A method of generating individualized real-time weather and environmental information, including receiving weather or environmental condition data from weather and environmental sensors, analyzing the data received from the sensors to generate weather and environmental information, and transmitting the information to a communicator device. The method may include determining a spatial range of a sensor and/or determining if a communicator device is within close proximity of a sensor. The sensors may be mounted in fixed locations along a roadway or a railway. The sensors may be approximately equidistant.

  • Patent number: 11108582
    Abstract: A method for providing information to a plurality of vendors located remotely from a broadcast network. A plurality of user-defined parameters are received by a user input database with at least one of the user-defined parameters including a user profile. Each of the user profiles includes a user identifier code identifying a communicator device associated with a particular user. Real-time data indicative of the spatial locations of the communicator devices is received by a communicator location database. Search information is received independently from a plurality of vendors and a data set is generated for each vendor.
