+    Naïve script demonstrating how to run a model from a client in the simplest way. Assumes that the 
+    VIPS-Python reference model is deployed on the running instance of VIPSCore-Python
+
+    Please note that this script does NOT require/utilize VIPSCore-Common-Python, which contains
+    data classes and utils for weather data, result objects etc.
