  • VEHICLE OFF ROUTE DETECTION
    Publication number: 20230332901
    Abstract: A method of re-routing an off route vehicle is described. A transportation system provides a route from an origin to a destination to a client device associated with a driver of the route. The transportation system receives location data from the client device associated with the driver and calculates one or more error values based on the location data. The transportation system provides a re-route to the client device based on determining that the one or more error values are greater than a threshold value.

  • Place visibility scoring system
    Patent number: 11379502
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving geographic coordinates for a location, determining a road segment associated with the location based on the geographic coordinates for the location, and determining a plurality of places associated with the road segment associated with the location. The systems and methods further provide for extracting visual data for each of the plurality of places, generating a plurality of feature values based on the visual data for each of the plurality of places, and analyzing the plurality of feature values to generate a visibility score for each of the plurality of places.

  • Reverse geocoding system
    Patent number: 10708708
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for receiving geographic coordinates for a location, generating a plurality of candidate places located within a predetermined distance from the location based on the geographic coordinates of the location, and extracting a plurality of features from each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places. The systems and methods are further provided for generating a place score for each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places using the plurality of features for each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places, determining the best candidate place based on the place score for each candidate place of the plurality of candidate places, and providing a place name associated with the best candidate place.
