As the demand for accurate weather forecasts continues to rise, there is an increasing need for specialized meteorological services. As a result, several private weather providers have emerged, offering customized meteorological solutions to meet the diverse needs of their clients. The present study introduces several meteorology-related applications from the point of view of WeatherNews Inc. (WNI), which is a private weather company. These applications are developed to primarily assist shipping- and energy-related companies, with greater emphasis being given to vessel weather routing.
