The network device triggers an inquiry for the rain shelter information by receiving the inquiry request.

In step S12, in response to the query request, the network device determines rain sheltering information corresponding to the user according to the current location information and the future rainfall information of the user device. In some embodiments, the network device queries whether there is future rainfall information that matches the query request (e.g., there are periods of rainfall where the future rainfall information covers the target period information in the query request) based on the query request. If there is future rainfall information, in some embodiments, the rain-sheltering information is determined according to the current location information of the user equipment and the future rainfall information, for example, the rain-sheltering information includes one or more rain-sheltering places, the network equipment determines one or more rain-sheltering places located near the user equipment according to the current location information of the user equipment, and the rain-sheltering information sent to the user equipment includes the one or more rain-sheltering places, so that the user can reach a suitable rain-sheltering place to shelter from rain based on the rain-sheltering information returned by the network equipment. In some embodiments, the rain sheltering information is text information, map information, or table information.

In step S13, the network device sends the rain sheltering information to the user device as response information of the inquiry request. For example, the network device sends rain sheltering information including one or more rain sheltering places to the user device, so that the user can select a suitable rain sheltering place from the one or more rain sheltering places to timely shelter from rain.

For example, user a knows that there may be a short rainfall around 3 pm, but that user a needs to go out for a short time around 3 pm, the user a may send a query request for rain sheltering information to the network device through the application, for example, the user a inputs target period information (3 pm to 4 pm), clicks a confirm button to send a query request to the network device, the network device receives the query request, queries whether short-time rainfall exists in the target time period information according to the query request, and if the short-time rainfall exists, inquiring one or more rain sheltering places near the user a according to the current position information of the user a, if corresponding rain sheltering places exist, rain sheltering information including the one or more rain sheltering places is returned to the user equipment, so that the rain sheltering places can be selected in time for rain sheltering when short-term rainfall suddenly occurs.

In some embodiments, the step S12 includes: the network equipment responds to the query request and detects whether future rainfall information matched with the query request exists or not; if the future rainfall information matched with the query request exists, determining corresponding rain sheltering information of the user according to the current position information of the user equipment and the future rainfall information; otherwise, setting the rain sheltering information to be null. In some embodiments, the network device first queries whether future rainfall information matching with an inquiry request is present according to the inquiry request sent by the user device, for example, the inquiry request includes target period information, the network device first queries whether future rainfall information is present in the target period information according to the target period information, and if the future rainfall information is present in the target period information, determines rain sheltering information corresponding to the user according to current location information of the user device and the future rainfall information; if there is no future rainfall information in the target period information, it is determined that there is no corresponding rain sheltering information, and in some embodiments, the network device may prompt the user that there is no future rainfall in the target period by returning a prompt message to the user device, and does not need to perform rain sheltering.

In some embodiments, the detecting whether there is future rainfall information matching the query request includes: and performing matching query in a future rainfall information base according to the request parameter information of the query request to determine whether future rainfall information matched with the request parameter information exists in the future rainfall information base. In some embodiments, the request parameter information includes, but is not limited to, target period information, for example, a window in the application is provided for inputting the request parameter information, the user inputs the target period information through the window, and the network device sends a query request after clicking a confirmation button. In some embodiments, a future rainfall information base is set in the server of the weather data provider, and the future rainfall information base includes one or more pieces of future rainfall information predicted by the weather data provider, and in some embodiments, each piece of future rainfall information includes information such as a rainfall area and a rainfall period. In some embodiments, after receiving an inquiry request sent by a user device, the network device queries whether future rainfall information matching the request parameter information of the inquiry request exists in the future rainfall information base according to the inquiry request, for example, if a rainfall period of the future rainfall information a is intersected with target period information in the request parameter information but not empty, it is determined that the future rainfall information a is future rainfall information matching the inquiry request.

In some embodiments, the request parameter information comprises at least any one of:

(1) and inquiring the requested target period information, wherein if the rainfall period is intersected with the target period information but not empty, the future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall period is matched with the requested parameter information.

The network device queries, according to the target period information, future rainfall information which is not empty and intersected with the target period information in a future rainfall information base, for example, the future rainfall information base comprises one or more pieces of future rainfall information which is obtained by a weather data supplier through prediction, wherein each piece of future rainfall information comprises a rainfall period, the network device queries, according to the target period information of a query request, whether a rainfall period which is not empty and intersected with the target period information exists in the one or more pieces of future rainfall information, if yes, the fact that the rainfall information exists in the target period information indicates that the future rainfall information exists in the target period information, and the fact that the future rainfall information corresponding to the period is matched with the request parameter information is determined.

(2) And inquiring request sending time information of the request, wherein if the minimum time interval between the rainfall period and the request sending time information is less than or equal to the preset time interval threshold information, future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall period is matched with the request parameter information. For example, the query request sent by the user to the network device includes request sending time information (for example, 15 minutes at 3 pm), the network device queries whether there is a rainfall period in the future rainfall information base according to the request sending time information to cover the request sending time information, or whether there is time interval between the start time of the rainfall period and the request sending time information smaller than a certain time interval threshold value information, and if so, determines the future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall period as the future rainfall information matched with the request parameter information.

(3) And the target position information of the user equipment, wherein if a rainfall area covers the target position information, future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall area is matched with the request parameter information. For example, if the user wants to inquire the rain sheltering information of a certain place, the user inputs the target position information and clicks the confirmation button to send an inquiry request to the network device. In some embodiments, the network device queries whether a rainfall area covering the target location information exists in a future rainfall information base according to the target location information, and if so, takes future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall area as future rainfall information matched with the query request.

(4) And current position information of the user equipment, wherein if a rainfall area covers the current position information, future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall area is matched with the request parameter information. For example, if the user authorizes the network device to obtain the current location information of the user, the user device corresponding to the user sends the current location information of the user obtained through the positioning system to the network device, the request parameter information includes the current location information of the user device, the network device queries whether a rainfall area covering the current location information exists in a future rainfall information base according to the current location information, and if so, the future rainfall information corresponding to the rainfall area is used as the future rainfall information matched with the query request.
