Advanced trip planning for autonomous vehicle services

A system of advanced trip planning for an autonomous vehicle service, the system comprising:

• a storage system configured to store user information for a user of an application of the autonomous vehicle service, the user information including historical trip information about previous trips and preferred locations;
• and
• one or more processors of one or more server computing devices in communication with the storage system, the one or more processors being configured to:
• determine a potential pickup location for the user and a set of potential destination locations for the user based on the user information;
• determine a set of potential trips, wherein each potential trip of the set of potential trips starts from the potential pickup location for the user and ends at a respective potential destination location of the set of potential destination locations;
• for each potential trip of the set of potential trips, determine trip information, wherein the trip information for each potential trip includes an estimated time of arrival to the respective potential destination location determined, at least partly, based on an assigned vehicle;
• provide the trip information for each potential trip of the set of potential trips to a client computing device for display to the user;
• and
• send instructions to the assigned vehicle of the autonomous vehicle service in order to cause the assigned vehicle to maneuver to the potential pickup location.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• determine a potential pickup location for a user and a set of potential destination locations for the user based on user information;
• determine a set of potential trips, wherein each potential trip of the set of potential trips starts from the potential pickup location for the user and ends at a respective potential destination location of the set of potential destination locations;
• for each potential trip of the set of potential trips, determine trip information, wherein the trip information for each potential trip includes an estimated time of arrival to the respective potential destination location determined, at least partly, based on an assigned vehicle;
• provide the trip information for each potential trip of the set of potential trips to a client computing device for display to the user;
• and
• send instructions to the assigned vehicle of an autonomous vehicle service in order to cause the assigned vehicle to maneuver to the potential pickup location.
