Abstract: Data includes key-value pairs that include numerical keys and numerical values. Each key represents a level of service associated with a data source and client terminals. The respective value represents availability or demand for the level of service. Data from different data sources is consolidated into consolidated data by summing values for each key. A consolidated indicator is determined for the consolidated data by computing an average key and an aggregate duration of keys of the consolidated data. The consolidated indicator is outputted for access to the client terminals via a wide-area computer network to allow the client terminals to use the consolidated indicator to configure respective data communications with different data sources.

Abstract: Methods and structure are provided for integrating photography systems into passenger vehicles. The system includes an imaging device, a billing system, and a controller. The imaging device is able to generate a photograph of a passenger in a vehicle. The billing system is within the vehicle, and accepts payment from the passenger for a fare. The controller is able to access the billing system to accept payment for the generated photograph.
