Abstract

See full text

Riders may request rides from a rider location to a desired destination. Possible stops are selected according to a fairness calculation that accounts for distance, weather, and wait times. Stops may be selected from among predefined virtual stops and based on virtual curb colors defining permitted stopping locations. Stops may be moved to promotional locations or to avoid stop congestion due to too many shuttles or too many riders using the stop. Routes are calculated for these stops and ETAs for the routes calculated based on traffic congestion data. Stop locations are communicated to riders and updated based on current traffic conditions or change in rider locations.
