PRIORITIZED TRANSPORTATION REQUESTS FOR A DYNAMIC TRANSPORTATION MATCHING SYSTEM
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for identifying provider devices and corresponding vehicles as candidates to transport time-sensitive (or otherwise prioritized) requestors and providing prioritized transportation options as fast passes for display on such requestors' devices. To provide such a prioritized transportation option, the disclosed systems can identify provider devices either matched or unmatched with requestors as candidates for prioritized transport based on estimated times of arrivals (ETAs) of vehicles for the candidate provider devices at the requestor's pickup location. Based on the ETAs at the pickup location, the disclosed systems can select a closest provider device from among the candidate provider devices to transport a prioritized requestor. After matching the prioritized requestor to the closest provider device, the disclosed systems can further search for providers with sooner ETAs.
