1. A computer implemented method for generating itineraries, the method comprising:
- identifying a departure location and a destination location;
identifying a first set of intermediary location and a second set of intermediary locations between the departure location and the destination location;
identifying a first set of intermediary times associated with the first set of intermediary locations;
identifying a second set of intermediary associated with the second set of intermediary locations;
identifying a first set of weather forecast associated with the first set of intermediary locations and the first set of intermediary times;
identifying a second set of weather forecasts associated with the second set of intermediary locations and the second set of intermediary times;
comparing a characteristic associated with the first set of weather forecasts and a characteristic associated with the second set of weather forecasts; and
identifying an itinerary comprising the first set of intermediary locations or the second set of intermediary locations based on the comparison.

Abstract
Provided are methods, devices, and non-transitory computer-readable storage mediums to generate an itinerary with a weather forecast. The itinerary may comprise a departure location, a destination location and a first time. Based on the itinerary, an intermediary location and an intermediary time associated with the intermediary location may be identified. A weather forecast associated with the identified intermediary location and the intermediary time may be predicted. A weather risk associated with the identified route may be assessed and. based on the assessed risk, an alternative route may be additionally identified.

8. A device for generating itineraries comprising:
-
one or more processors; a memory storing instructions for the one or more processors; and a communication module to connect to a remote device over a communication network; wherein, when the one or more processors execute the instructions stored in the memory, the device is caused to; identify a departure location and a destination location; identify a first set of intermediary locations and a second set of intermediary locations between the departure location and the destination location; identify a first set of intermediary times associated with the first set of intermediary location; identify a second set of intermediary times associated with the second set of intermediary locations; identify a first set of weather forecast associated with the first set of intermediary locations and the first set of intermediary times; identifying a second set of weather forecasts associated with the second set of intermediary locations and the second set of intermediary times; compare a characteristic associated with the first set of weather forecasts and a characteristic associated with the second set of weather forecasts; and identify an itinerary comprising the first set of intermediary locations or the second set of intermediary locations based on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A system comprising a server and a remote device that is connected to the server over a communication network, wherein:
-
the server comprises a computer and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program causing the computer to execute an itinerary generation process, the itinerary generation process comprising; identifying a departure location and a destination location; identifying a first set of intermediary locations and a second set of intermediary locations between the departure location and the destination location; identifying a first set of intermediary times associated with the first set of intermediary locations; identifying a second set of intermediary times associated with the second set of intermediary locations; identifying a first set of weather forecasts associated with the first set of intermediary locations and the first set of intermediary times; identifying a second set of weather forecasts associated with the second set of intermediary locations and the second set of intermediary times; comparing a characteristic associated with the first set of weather forecasts and a characteristic associated with the second set of weather forecasts; and identifying an itinerary comprising the first set of intermediary locations or the second set of intermediary locations based on the comparison the remote device comprises one or more processors, a display and a memory storing instructions for the one or more processors to; obtain the itinerary from the server over the communication network; and cause, on the display, a display of at least part of the itinerary.
