    摘要: An inundated area dividing unit divides an inundated area into one or more divided areas based on a boundary indicated in inundation estimation data indicating the boundary where a water level changes when inundation occurs. For each of the one or more divided areas, a water level calculation unit calculates the water level in a subject divided area, from an elevation of a boundary area of the subject divided area. A depth calculation unit calculates a flood depth at a subject point, from the elevation at the subject point and the water level in the divided area including the subject point.

    摘要: A system configured to provide output indicative of crop spraying conditions in an agricultural region, the system including: an input configured to receive data from at least one monitoring physical tower, wherein the physical tower extends from ground level in the agricultural region, wherein the tower includes one or more anemometers configured to measure respective wind speeds at one or more predetermined heights above the ground level; a processor which is configured to process periodic values of respective wind speeds at the one or more predetermined heights above the ground level, thereby to derive a real-time measure representative of a local vertical turbulence characteristic for the location of the monitoring tower, wherein the real-time measure representative of a local vertical turbulence characteristic for the location of the monitoring tower is based on a standard deviation of vertical wind speed; and an output device which is configured to provide the output indicative of crop spraying conditions based on a comparison between: (i) the real-time measure representative of the local vertical turbulence characteristic; and (ii) one or more predetermined threshold values.

    摘要: In a snow accretion test method, a snow accumulation step of accumulating snow on a specimen, and a snow accretion step of freezing snow accumulated on the specimen in a state where snow is not supplied to the specimen are performed. The snow accumulation step and the snow accretion step are repeatedly performed. In the snow accretion step, the ambient temperature of the specimen is adjusted to a temperature lower than the ambient temperature in the snow accumulation step.

    摘要: Disclosed embodiments include systems, vehicles, and methods for presenting weather conditions a traveler may encounter while traveling a route. In an illustrative embodiment, a computing device executes instructions to present an integrated route map. An input is received indicative of a trip to be made to a destination by a traveler. A store of route data for an area encompassing the trip is accessed. At least one route is identified. A weather forecasting service is accessed from which expected weather conditions are accessible for the area through the projected time. The expected weather conditions are identified for the location at the projected time. An integrated route map is displayed showing the at least one route and the expected weather conditions for the location at the projected time.

    摘要: A device is specified for ascertaining a movement corridor for lightweight aircraft. The device includes a first interface, a second interface, and a processing unit. The first interface is configured to receive aircraft data relating to the lightweight aircraft, wherein the aircraft data at least contain flight properties and functions of the lightweight aircraft. The second interface is configured to receive weather data from a weather information source, wherein the weather data contain weather predictions and also current weather data and contain at least air movements in an altitude profile between a maximum altitude of the lightweight aircraft and the Earth's surface. The processing unit is configured to compare the aircraft data to the weather data and to ascertain a probable movement corridor of the aircraft.
