It would be faster If the captain had a Data Application that sent the boats specific Geographic location to the Data Provider and received a response that advised on weather patterns in the immediate vicinity.
The Data Application that the captain purchased benefits the Data Provider and the Data Consumer in that they have not had to provide and consume Redundant Data (no need seeing the weather on the other side of the country) it also means that the information the captain needs is faster to arrive.
Using the Authenticated Data process the Captain gets data faster.
