    Abstract: The present application discloses an improved transportation matching system, and corresponding methods and computer-readable media. According to the disclosed embodiments, the transportation matching system identifies low engagement transportation providers by analyzing information associated with the transportation providers to generate engagement levels. Furthermore, the system identifies an optimal match between a low engagement transportation provider (regardless of whether the transportation provider is online or offline) and a scheduled transportation request by utilizing attributes associated with a scheduled transportation request and attributes associated with transportation providers to generate rankings for the transportation providers. Additionally, the system provides the scheduled transportation request exclusively to a selected transportation provider based on the generated rankings.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes an arrival determination system that determines a hiking distance for a transportation request and further enables a provider device to indicate arrival for pickup based on monitoring a location of the provider device. For example, the disclosed systems utilize a hiking distance predictor model to analyze request features associated with a transportation request to determine a hiking distance based on the request features. In addition, the disclosed systems monitor a location of a provider device of a provider matched to service the transportation request to determine when the provider device is within the hiking distance of a requested pickup location. Based on determining that the provider device is within the hiking distance, the disclosed systems enable the provider device to notify a requester device that the provider has arrived for pickup.
