Abstract
A tool for protecting outdoor objects from weather related damage. Responsive to a registration request, the tool registers an object and an originating location where the object is currently located. The tool determines whether a risk threshold for the object is exceeded based, at least in part, on weather conditions at the originating location. Responsive to a determination that the risk threshold for the object is exceeded, the tool instructs one or more drones to relocate the object from an originating location to a protected location that is protected from the weather conditions.
