Systems and methods for dropping off a user at a destination location

A navigation method comprising:

• obtaining, by a processor, a destination location, a destination location map and a digital key comprising information associated with a site of interest in the destination location;
• determining, by the processor, an optimal drop-off location, from a plurality of drop-off locations, at the destination location based on at least the digital key and the destination location map;
• determining, by the processor, a real-time location of a vehicle or a user device;
• generating, by the processor, navigation instructions to navigate the vehicle or the user device from the real-time location to the optimal drop-off location;
• and
• transmitting, by the processor, the navigation instructions to the vehicle or the user device,
• wherein the vehicle is an autonomous vehicle that autonomously navigates to the optimal drop-off location responsive to receiving the navigation instructions.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereupon which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• obtain a destination location, a destination location map and a digital key comprising information associated with a site of interest in the destination location;
• determine an optimal drop-off location, from a plurality of drop-off locations, at the destination location based on at least the digital key and the destination location map;
• determine a real-time location of a vehicle or a user device;
• generate navigation instructions to navigate the vehicle or the user device from the real-time location to the optimal drop-off location;
• and
• transmit the navigation instructions to the vehicle or the user device,
• wherein the vehicle is an autonomous vehicle that autonomously navigates to the optimal drop-off location responsive to receiving the navigation instructions.
