Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to update a location stored at a server for an electric charger. A determination is made that an electric vehicle is being charged at an electric charger, and a location of the electric charger may be retrieved from a server storing a plurality of locations of electric chargers. A determination of a location of the electric charger may be made based on a positioning system of the electric vehicle. The location of the electric charger retrieved from the server may be compared to the location of the electric charger determined based on the positioning system of the electric vehicle. Based on the comparison, the location stored at the server for the electric charger, the location stored at a server for an electric charger may be updated.

1-20. (canceled)
A method comprising:
- retrieving, from a server storing charging speed information of electric chargers, first charging speed information of an electric charger;
- determining second charging speed information of the electric charger based on charging of an electric vehicle at the electric charger;
- and
- determining whether to update the first charging speed information stored at the server based on a difference between the first charging speed information and the second charging speed information, wherein:
- when the difference is below a non-zero threshold value, the first charging speed information stored at the server is not updated;
- and
- when the difference exceeds the non-zero threshold value, the first charging speed information stored at the server is updated.
A system comprising:
- a server;
- processing circuitry configured to:
- retrieve, from a server storing charging speed information of electric chargers, first charging speed information of an electric charger;
- determine second charging speed information of the electric charger based on charging of an electric vehicle at the electric charger;
- and
- determine whether to update the first charging speed information stored at the server based on a difference between the first charging speed information and the second charging speed information, wherein:
- when the difference is below a non-zero threshold value, the first charging speed information stored at the server is not updated;
- and
- when the difference exceeds the non-zero threshold value, the first charging speed information stored at the server is updated.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having non-transitory computer-readable instructions encoded thereon that, when executed by processing circuitry, causes the processing circuitry to:
- retrieve, from a server storing charging speed information of electric chargers, first charging speed information of an electric charger;
- determine second charging speed information of the electric charger based on charging of an electric vehicle at the electric charger;
- and
- determine whether to update the first charging speed information stored at the server based on a difference between the first charging speed information and the second charging speed information, wherein:
- when the difference is below a non-zero threshold value, the first charging speed information stored at the server is not updated;
- and
- when the difference exceeds the non-zero threshold value, the first charging speed information stored at the server is updated.
