Abstract

A computer-implemented method is described for determining an efficient transportation route comprising: compiling travel data over one or more travel segments, the travel data transmitted from one or more transportation vehicles traveling over the travel segments; receiving positional data associated with a transportation request, the positional data including an origin and a destination; and providing a driver of a vehicle with a first efficient route from the origin to the destination using the travel data, the first efficient route including one or more of the travel segments. Also described is a computer-implement method for providing transportation services comprising; receiving a transportation request from a passenger; tracking the passenger's position following the request using positional detection logic; and transmitting positional data identifying the passenger's position to a pickup vehicle.
