• The information is useful for anyone with more than a passing interest in a particular place. It can provide information, for example, pertinent to the types of crops, which could possibly be grown, or the heating or the cooling requirements of housing in the area. Thus it provides an estimate of the climatic resources of an area.
• The identification of regions is also important for climatology itself. If patterns in the spatial distribution of regions are found they may provide insight into the processes that are acting to create those regions. Further more, examination of these processes can lead to estimates of whether a particular region is likely to be modified over time as the result of natural or anthropogenic changes to the atmosphere or surface.
