  • Publication number: 20160370500
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and a server for providing alerts for rainfall return periods. The server receives periodic rain intensity measurements from a pluviometer. The server compares a last received rain intensity measurement to a set of rainfall intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curves for a location of the pluviometer and for a time window corresponding to a periodicity of the rain intensity measurements. Based on this comparison, the server provides a current return period for the location of the pluviometer. The server sends an alert to a remote terminal when a target return period is met or exceeded by the current return period. The server may also calculate a prediction of a future return period for the location of the pluviometer and send an early warning to the remote terminal based on the future return period.

  • Patent number: 6644672
    Abstract: A set of replacement skates for a scooter. The replacement skates are designed such that each replacement skate can replace a wheel on the scooter. Each replacement skate includes both a skate blade and a support structure. The support structure has two cross-sectional areas. The first cross-sectional sectional area is larger than the second cross-sectional sectional area such that the first cross-sectional area is oriented away from the scooter and the second cross-sectional area is oriented toward the footboard of the scooter. A kit may also be provided with a front end replacement skate and a rear end replacement skate. Both replacement skates have attachment means for fastening the skates to the scooter using the seine pins and fasteners used to attach the wheels.
