  • Publication number: 20210304346
    Abstract: Systems and method for transporting a rider to a destination based on position coordinates of a computing device are disclosed. According to an aspect, a method includes receiving a request for transportation to a destination proximate a mobile computing device. The method also includes determining position coordinates of the mobile computing device. Further, the method includes communicating, to a computing device of a driver associated with the request, the position coordinates of the mobile computing device for indicating the position coordinates as the destination for the request. The method also includes determining updated positioned coordinates of the mobile computing device. Further, the method includes communicating, to the computing device of the driver associated with the request, the updated position coordinates of the mobile computing device.
