Instant weather on the move

Movingweather made its debut at the recent London Boat show and, by all accounts, did tremendous business from day 1.

The company has developed software that takes output from the USA's NOAA satellites and turns it into instant weather maps, complete with pressure, temperature, wind directions and strength and anything else you want to know. As the data comes from official US government satellites, you could probably - if you so wanted - find out about the wheat harvest from whatever prairie you wanted? The company offers GPRS transmissions on a subscription basis with the downloads available anywhere on the globe. The forecasts stretch three days ahead and are updated every six hours and the download should take around 40 seconds by GPRS or three minutes to a mobile phone.

The annual subscription is £69.99 and allows unlimited access to the service.
