Systems and methods for anticipatory tire pressure control

A method of controlling tire pressure, comprising:

• receiving road data from a road sensor regarding a road for an advanced location ahead of a current location of a vehicle;
• determining a target pressure for a tire of the vehicle based on the road data;
• and
• controlling an air pressure of the tire based on the target pressure such that the air pressure of the tire is at the target pressure at least one of before and as the vehicle arrives at the advanced location.

A method of controlling tire pressure, comprising:

• receiving road data regarding an advanced location ahead of a current location of a vehicle on a road;
• receiving environment data regarding an environment at an exterior of the vehicle;
• receiving vehicle data regarding operation of the vehicle;
• determining a target air pressure for a tire based on the road data, environment data, and the vehicle data;
• and
• controlling an air pressure of the tire based on the target air pressure and a current air pressure of the tire such that the air pressure of the tire is at the target air pressure at least one of before and as the vehicle arrives at the advanced location.
