Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating communication between a number of different computing devices are provided. A service entity that provides a multi-modal transportation service can collaborate with a number of different devices via a vehicle integration interface over a number of different frequencies or networks. The vehicle integration interface includes a number of endpoints. Each endpoint corresponds to a device type associated with a number of devices operated according to a unique protocol. The service entity obtains a communication or provides a message to a respective device via a respective endpoint of the vehicle integration interface. The service entity determines a device type associated with a received communication based on a respective endpoint and translates the communication based on the device type. The translated communication is aggregated with information received from a number of different devices configured to operate and communicate according to a number of different protocols.

Abstract: Example embodiments are directed to systems and methods for providing cloud service to an onboard aerial vehicle system, A cloud service system accesses a flight related data. Using the flight related data, the cloud service system generates flight operations in a format of an avionics system on an aerial vehicle. A communication link is established over a communication network between the cloud service system and the aerial vehicle and the generated flight operations is transmitted to the aerial vehicle as digital data sent as data packets. The cloud service system then monitors, in real time, the aerial vehicle during a flight, wherein the monitoring comprises receiving and storing in-flight data from the aerial vehicle and the in-flight data is data reconstructed from a plurality of data packets received from the aerial vehicle. The cloud service system determines, based on the received in-flight data, whether to update the flight operations.
