AUTOMATIC TRAVEL TIME AND ROUTING DETERMINATIONS IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

Aspects relate to automatically providing updated route and predicted travel time to allow a user to travel a shortest route between a first point and a second point. A route can be planned based on a multitude of route segments, wherein historical data related to speed is known for each of the route segments. Further, the historical data is categorized based on temporal aspects, such as time of day, day of week, as well as other aspects, such as known events that can have an influence on the speed at which each route segment can be traveled. As the user moves along the route, the planned route, as well as an anticipated travel time, are almost continually updated to provide the most up-to-date and accurate data.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage device storing executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a system comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:
determining first location data representing a first location based on a first set of route segments of a first route and a travel time target, and second location data representing a second location based on a second set of route segments of a second route and the travel time target, wherein the travel time target defines a maximum amount of time to be traversed from an identified location; assigning a first set of confidence levels to the first set of route segments and a second set of confidence levels to the second set of route segments, wherein the first set of confidence levels indicate a first confidence of arrival at the first location within the travel time target and the second set of confidence levels indicate a second confidence of arrival at the second location within the travel time target; and facilitating an output of a map that comprises the first set of route segments, an indication of the first location, the first confidence of arrival at the first location within the travel time target, the second set of route segments, the second location, and the second confidence of arrival at the second location within the travel time target.
