  • Publication number: 20210182751
    Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying and selectively displaying indications of nearby vehicles are presented. In one example, a method is provided that includes receiving locations of vehicles located near a location of a user device. The vehicles may include vehicles of a first type and vehicles of a second type. A cluster including at least a first subset of the vehicles of the first type may be identified and a location of the cluster may be identified. The location of the cluster may represent the location of at least one of the first subset of the vehicles. A second subset of the vehicles of the second type may then be identified including at most a predetermined quantity of vehicles. A map may be generated that includes a first indication at the location of the cluster and second indications at the location of the second subset of the vehicles.

  • Publication number: 20190206009
    Abstract: This disclosure covers methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems that analyze sensory data from a client device to determine a user is traveling on a mass-transit vehicle and to dispatch a transportation vehicle for pickup of the user at a pickup location corresponding to a mass-transit station. To coordinate matching a user with a transportation vehicle, the methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems determine an estimated transit time of a user to one (or both) of the mass-transit station and the pickup location and select a transportation vehicle positioned to arrive at the pickup location by the estimated transit time.
