Patent number: 7191065Abstract: A broadcast network for selectively transmitting individualized weather output signals to at least one of a plurality of communicator devices remotely located from the broadcast network comprising a user input database, a communicator location database, a weather analysis unit, and a communication network. The user input database contains a plurality of user profiles. At least some of the user profiles contains parameters provided from a pre-defined user profile, each profile including a user identifier code. The communicator location database contains real-time data indicative of the spatial locations of the communicator devices. The weather analysis unit automatically and continuously compares the parameters in the user input database and the spatial locations of the corresponding communicator devices with real-time weather data generating individualized weather output signals.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2005Date of Patent: March 13, 2007Assignee: WeatherBank, Inc.Inventors: Steven A. Root, Michael R. Root
