Abstract: A computer-implemented method including receiving a first representation of a geographical polygon defining a parcel of land, which first representation includes latitude and longitude coordinates that represent at least the corners of the geographical polygon; based on the first representation, determining various features of the geographical polygon; and preparing a second representation of the geographical polygon, which second representation includes the geometric centre of geographical polygon, first two alphanumeric characters, second two alphanumeric characters, a fifth alphanumeric character, and a sixth alphanumeric character.

Abstract: A method for downscaling a weather forecast including obtaining a sky image and location data indicative of a user location via a mobile computing device; sending the location data to a weather forecast provider; generating, by the weather forecast provider, a local weather forecast for the user location; sending the local weather forecast to a server; determining, by the mobile computing device, cloud cover data and cloud type data based on the sky image, and sending the cloud cover data and cloud type data to the server or sending the sky image to the server and determining cloud cover data and cloud type data based on the sky image; increasing the resolution of the local weather forecast based on the cloud cover data and the cloud type data, thus obtaining a downscaled local weather forecast; and, sending the downscaled local weather forecast to the mobile computing device.
