Aspects of the disclosure relate to distributing vehicles to perform scouting. This may involve receiving a request for a scouting objective for a vehicle, and in response, identifying a set of scouting objectives that the vehicle is eligible to visit. Each scouting objective of the set is associated with one or more scouting quests, and each scouting quest is associated with a plurality of scouting objectives. For each given scouting objective in the set of scouting objectives, an overall weight may be determined using combined weights for the given scouting objective and any scouting quests with which the given scouting objective is associated. One or more scouting objectives of the set of scouting objectives may be selected using the determined overall weights. The one or more selected scouting objectives may be provided to the vehicle.

The present disclosure relates to providing a dynamic graphical user interface for efficiently presenting users with relevant ride information throughout the fulfilment of a ride request. In some embodiments, the system detects a trigger event during a ride, and based on detecting the trigger event, the system expands or collapses an information portion within a graphical user interface. When in a collapsed state, for example, the information portion of the graphical user interfaces includes a first set of content. Upon detecting a trigger event, the system dynamically expands the information portion to provide a second set of content that includes information associated with the detected trigger.

Systems and methods for route management are disclosed. A system for use with a communication network includes an electronic logging device, a global positioning device, and a server. The server communicates via a communication network and to access vehicle data and global positioning data via the communication network. The server includes a processor(s) and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions thereon, that when executed by the one or more processors, cause the processor(s) to: analyze the vehicle data to identify start-and-stop events of the vehicle; analyze each of the start-and-stop events with respect to criteria to identify which of the start-and-stop events is associated with an actual visit event; identify the locations and the times from the global positioning data that correspond to the actual visit events; and correlate the locations and the times of the vehicle with the respective ones of the actual visit events.

A marine vessel fuel control system may comprise an interface to receive data identifying the vessel and data identifying a voyage to be undertaken by the vessel. The control system may also comprise a memory to store program code to implement a predictive model and parameter values for the model, the values resulting from an optimisation of the model using historical data for marine vessels and voyages. The control system may also comprise a processor arranged to execute the program code to: instantiate the model using the values; supply the data identifying the vessel and the data identifying the voyage to be undertaken to the model; and apply the model to determine a fuel consumption estimate for the vessel for the voyage. A fuel supply system determines an amount of fuel to be supplied to at least one fuel tank of the vessel based on the fuel consumption estimate.

Systems and methods for optimizing issue reporting in a navigation environment are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system causes presentation of a navigation user interface on a user device of a user, whereby the navigation user interface includes a route being navigated and navigation instructions. The networked system also causes presentation of one or more issue icons on the user device, whereby each issue icon represents a different type of issue to be reported. A selection of an issue icon from the one or more issue icons is received by the networked system. In response to receiving the selection of the issue icon, the networked system infers a location associated with the issue. The networked system updates a database with the issue and the inferred location. In some embodiments, the database is updated after the inferred location or the issue is verified.

An autonomous vehicle (AV) described herein is configured to receive a pull over location specified by a passenger, and is further configured to refine the pull over location based upon one or more factors, where the factors include computer-readable content from a profile of the passenger, sensor data output by sensor systems of the AV, observed or predicted weather conditions, observed or predicted traffic, and/or observations recently generated by other AVs that belong to the same fleet as the AV.

The information processing device provides information relating to a movement of a mobile body. The receiving unit receives an information request. The load determination unit determines a load of a driver with respect to a driving of the mobile body. The voice output unit outputs, in response to the information request, a basic information when the load is large, and an additional information in addition to the basic information when the load is small.

Systems and methods which provide for exposing alternate shipping service provider services in shipping management systems are described. Embodiments provide a generic alternate carrier component used to configure configured alternate carrier components of carrier support logic for exposing corresponding alternate shipping service providers for selection and use by users of a shipping management system. A generic alternate carrier component may be configured for a respective alternate shipping service provider for interfacing selected carrier shipping services offerings supported by the alternate shipping service provider with a shipping management platform of a shipping management system. Carrier support modules may be provided for each shipping service provider of a plurality of shipping service providers, wherein the carrier support modules may be configured to interface services logic for a corresponding shipping service provider with a shipping management platform using one or more configured alternate carrier components.

The present invention discloses a unique system for travel contemplation. The present invention particularly discloses a travel contemplating system with consolidating features of planning and navigating for site visits and accommodation at the same time simultaneously. In addition, the aforementioned system also provides integrated facilities of accessing all sorts of multimedia for entertainment while travelling.

A computer-implemented method is provided. The method includes: obtaining a location of a vehicle driver's terminal device, a location of a first passenger's terminal device and a location of a second passenger's terminal device and a location of a destination; determining a plurality of candidate pick-up points according to the locations of the first and second passenger's terminal devices; determining at least one target pick-up point from the plurality of candidate pick-up points, in such a manner that a total time cost from the location of the vehicle driver's terminal device to the location of the destination to be minimum when the first and second passenger's terminal devices are picked up from a respective target pick-up point in the at least one target pick-up point; and determining a navigation path for the vehicle driver's terminal device based on at least a location of the at least one target pick-up point.
