Abstract

A system and method that allows for weather-based planning of future activities and/or events, and the like. The system includes weather forecast, weather history, activities, advertisement and external information source databases. Also included in the system is a central processing planning server that is accessible via a plurality of internal and external workstations. The workstations provide a graphical user interface for users to enter a series of inputs and receive information (i.e., output) concerning weather-based information. The method involves collecting the series of inputs—geographic location(s), time period(s), and preferred weather pattern(s)—affecting a future event.
