  • Patent number: 11912296
    Abstract: Systems and methods for avoiding illegal stopping zones are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system identifies a destination of a driver providing a transportation service to a user. The networked system monitors a user device of the driver, and infers, based on the monitoring, that the driver is planning to stop in an illegal stopping zone located a predetermined distance to the destination. The inference is based on device data such as accelerometer data or location data that is triangulated with known or derived illegal stopping zones. In response, the networked system causes presentation of a notification on a user interface of the device of the driver. The notification provides an indication of the illegal stopping zone. In some embodiments, the notification also provides an alternative stopping location determined by the networked system.

  • Publication number: 20240044655
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a map application that identities a transit route that includes one or more transit legs between a starting location and a destination location. In response to a request to start navigating the identified transit route, the map application of some embodiments provides a first display area for displaying a set of navigation instructions, each of which describes a transit maneuver that is associated with a transit leg of the transit route. The map application also provides a second display area for displaying a map region presentation associated with the navigation instruction that is displayed in the first display area.

  • Patent number: 11709071
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide for annotating a geographic map. Display of a geographic map on a client device can be adjusted (e.g., pan over geographic map or adjust zoom level), and a first set of map annotations for the adjusted map is determined, where the first set of map annotations comprises at least one map annotation associated with a transport service opportunity. From the first set of map annotations, a second set of map annotations can be determined based on a map annotation visual hierarchy. For instance, at least a portion of the second set of map annotations can be determined by filtering the first set of map annotations based on a type of transport service opportunity. Subsequently, the second set of map annotations can be presented on the adjusted map on the display.

  • Patent number: 11635302
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a mapping application that displays a transit map including a group of transit lines. The mapping application receives a request to display a transit route in the transit map. The mapping application also, in response to the received request, displays the transit route by modifying portions of transit lines along the route to emphasize the portions of the transit lines while modifying other transit lines not along the route to de-emphasize the transit lines not along the route.

  • Publication number: 20220074759
    Abstract: Example embodiments are directed to systems and methods for providing end of route navigation. In example embodiments, a network system identifies a destination of a route and retrieves a display template based on the destination. The display template provides guidelines for display of end of route content, whereby the display of the end of the route content is different than display of content during a middle of the route. The network system identifies, based on the display template, a display time to trigger the display of the end of the route content. The display time may be associated with a threshold distance to the destination. The network system monitors a location of a vehicle along the route and accesses end of route content. Responsive to detecting that the location of the vehicle is at the threshold distance to the destination, the network system causes presentation of the end of the route content on a device associated with the vehicle.
