    摘要: The disclosure generally pertains to systems and methods for providing a rendezvous service for pick-up or delivery. In an example method, a first request associated with a user of a vehicle may be received. The first request may comprise a delivery request or a pickup request. A first time for completing the first request may be determined. A predicted route associated with the vehicle may then be determined, where a first duration of the predicted route may include the first time. A first location for completing the first request may be selected, where the first location may be selected based at least in part on the first location being available at the first time. The first request may then be completed at the first location.

    摘要: Systems and methods for public transport infrastructure facilitated drone delivery are provided. In example embodiments, a request to deliver a package to a drop-off destination using a drone is received. Public infrastructure information is accessed. A public infrastructure terminal from which the drone delivers the package is identified based on the public infrastructure information. An instruction is communicated to transport the package to the identified public. A drone delivery route from the identified public infrastructure terminal to the drop-off destination is determined based on the public infrastructure information. An instruction to deliver the package using the drone delivery route is communicated to the drone.
