Abstract
Methods and systems for providing transportation service to a passenger are disclosed. An exemplary method for providing transportation service may include receiving a transportation request from a terminal device, the transportation request indicating a passenger position. The method may further include causing the terminal device to search for network condition information associated with the passenger position. The method may also include determining, by at least one processor, a pick-up location for the transportation request based on the network condition information, and providing the pick-up location to the terminal device.
Claims17
A computer-implemented method for providing transportation service to a passenger associated with a transportation request, comprising:
- receiving the transportation request from a terminal device, the transportation request indicating a passenger position;
- causing the terminal device to search for network condition information associated with the passenger position;
- determining, by at least one processor, a pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the network condition information;
- and
- providing the pick-up location to the terminal device,
- wherein determining the pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the network condition information further comprises:
- identifying historical transportation requests matched with the network condition information, each historical transportation request being associated with a historical pick-up location;
- determining a count of historical transportation requests that use each historical pick-up location;
- ranking the historical pick-up locations according to the count;
- and
- determining the pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the historical pick-up locations.
A system for providing transportation service to a passenger associated with a transportation request, comprising:
- a communication interface configured to:
- receive the transportation request from a terminal device, the transportation request indicating a passenger position;
- and
- cause the terminal device to search for network condition information associated with the passenger position;
- at least one memory;
- and
- at least one processor coupled to the communication interface and the at least one memory, the at least one processor configured to:
- determine a pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the network condition information;
- and
- provide the pick-up location to the terminal device,
- wherein to determine the pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the network condition information, the at least one processor is further configured to:
- identify historical transportation requests matched with the network condition information, each historical transportation request being associated with a historical pick-up location;
- determine a count of historical transportation requests that use each historical pick-up location;
- rank the historical pick-up locations according to the count;
- and
- determine the pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the historical pick-up locations.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium that stores a set of instructions, which, when executed by at least one processor of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to perform a method for providing transportation service to a passenger associated with a transportation request, the method comprising:
- receiving the transportation request from a terminal device, the transportation request indicating a passenger position;
- causing the terminal device to search for network condition information associated with the passenger position;
- determining a pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the network condition information;
- and
- providing the pick-up location to the terminal device,
- wherein determining the pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the network condition information further comprises:
- identifying historical transportation requests matched with the network condition information, each historical transportation request being associated with a historical pick-up location;
- determining a count of historical transportation requests that use each historical pick-up location;
- ranking the historical pick-up locations according to the count;
- and
- determining the pick-up location for the passenger associated with the transportation request based on the historical pick-up locations.
