Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving a start location and a destination location, determining a road segment corresponding to the destination location, and identifying a node nearest the road segment corresponding to the destination location, whereby the node corresponds to a nearest left-hand node for a right-hand driving country or a nearest right-hand node for a left-hand driving country. The systems and methods further provide for generating a first route from the start location to the node nearest the road segment corresponding to the destination location, generating a second route from the node nearest the road segment corresponding to the destination location, to the destination location, and combining the first route and the second route to generate a final route. Thus, the final route comprises a route from the start location, through the node nearest the road segment corresponding to the destination location, to the destination location.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing routing involving an indicated point of interest associated with a plurality of levels of a multilevel (overlapping or stacked) roadway are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system aggregates trip data received from user devices that includes location information and detected attributes for points of interest. The networked system analyzes the location information and the detected attributes to determine a height parameter and, in some cases, a characteristic associated with different levels of the multilevel roadway for points of interest. The height parameters and characteristics for each point of interest are stored to a database in a data storage. During runtime, the networked system receives a request that includes a point of interest. In response, the networked system detects a level of roadway at the point of interest using the database and real-time device data. Based on the detected level of the multilevel roadway, a route is generated and presented.

Abstract: Systems and methods for biasing reroute to a user selected alternate route or a required route segment is provided. A network system receives an origin and a destination and determines a plurality of routes to navigate from the origin to the destination. The plurality of routes includes an optimal route and an alternate route. The network system receives, from a user device, a selection of the alternate route for navigation. The network system then monitors navigation of the alternate route by a user associated with the user device and detects deviation from the alternate route. In response to the detection, the network system determines a reroute by biasing to the alternate route over the optimal route. The reroute is then presented on the user device.

Abstract: Various embodiments determine a set of estimated times of a service, being performed by a service providing user (a provider) at the request of another user (requester), using one or more cumulative estimated times. In particular, a computing device, such as a requester's client device or a backend server supporting backend operations of a service arrangement software platform, uses one or more cumulative estimated times to determine one or more estimated times in connection with a provider's performance of a requested service as the provider traverses (e.g., travels) a geographic route in connection with the requested service. The use of the cumulative estimated times enables the computing device to continue to determine and update the one or more estimated times with or without the availability of update data regarding the provider's current geographic position.
