CustomWeather has designed its color WML service to include vibrantly colored, contour weather maps (such as high temperature, low temperature, precipitation, sunshine index, dew point, visibility, UV index, winds, and jet stream) along with satellite imagery and dozens of color weather icons.  The result is an eye-catching, exciting color wireless weather service.  Specific weather applications for special interests such as skiing and marine have also been created, offering a breadth of content never before seen on wireless with a wide array of content ranging from earthquake reports to ski conditions to surf alerts to 7-day forecasts. All content is available on a local level for more than 58,000 cities around the globe.

CustomWeather’s color wireless solution is linearly scalable, utilizing the open source Openwave Useability Interface (OUI) to allow for optimal display on all WAP-enabled devices.  Weather can be requested by coordinates, city names, city identifiers, or postal codes for locations all around the world. The color wireless service is already available in English, Chinese, Spanish, Italian, French, German, Portuguese and Dutch, and additional languages are continually being added.

CustomWeather’s new color wireless product complements its vast collection of weather alerts, forecasts, maps and reports that are compiled for over 58,000 cities worldwide, and are already available in other in-demand formats such as XML, standard WML, ASCII and SMS.
