1. A computer-implemented method of providing a suggested transportation route, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving operational parameters, wherein the operational parameters include non-weather related parameters;
(b) obtaining at least one transportation route corresponding to the operational parameters;
(c) receiving weather data;
(d) identifying a first set of suggested transportation routes by applying the weather data to the at least one transportation route obtained in step (b), wherein the weather data is used to identify an impact of a weather condition along the at least one transportation route obtained in step (b);
(e) presenting the first set of suggested transportation routes to a user;
(f) receiving an indication from the user of an alteration of at least one aspect of the operational parameters; and
(g) presenting a second set of suggested transportation routes based on a probabilistic determination of the impact of the alteration on the first set of suggested transportation routes, wherein the probabilistic determination includes an analysis of the effect, as a result of the alteration, of the weather data on the first set of suggested transportation routes.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method of providing a suggested transportation route includes receiving a set of operational parameters and weather data. At least one transportation route corresponding to the operational parameters is obtained. The weather data is used to identify an impact of a weather condition along the obtained transportation routes. At least one suggested transportation route is identified by applying the weather data to the at least one transportation route. The suggested transportation route is presented to a user.

16. A computer-implemented method of providing a suggested flight route, the method comprising:
-
(a) receiving operational parameters, wherein the operational parameters include non-weather related parameters; (b) obtaining a first set of flight routes corresponding to the operational parameters, wherein the first set of flight routes contains at least one flight route; (c) receiving weather data; (d) identifying a first set of suggested flight routes from the first set of flight routes obtained in step (b) using the weather data to identify an impact of a weather condition along one or more flight routes included in the first set of flight routes obtained in step (b), wherein the identified impact includes a prediction of expected utilizations of the one or more flight routes in the first set of flight routes based on a weather condition impacting the one or more flight routes; and (e) presenting the first set of suggested flight routes to a user, wherein a primary flight route is identified in the first set of flight routes based on ranking each route of the first set of suggested flight routes using route ranking parameters. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 37)
