    摘要: Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for locating and navigating to the location of a requestor based on proximity between a requestor device and a provider device. For example, embodiments display proximity indicators to allow a provider to quickly, easily, and safely locate a requestor upon arrival near a request location. Further, in some embodiments, graphics associated with a proximity vector may be presented on a provider communication device to clearly display the navigation directions to the provider so that the provider may easily find their matched requestor without requiring additional communication between the provider and the requestor. Additionally, embodiments provide efficient navigation to riders by limiting display of proximity indicators for navigation until the provider is within a threshold distance to the request location to conserve system resources and communication between an on-demand matching system and the provider computing device.

    摘要: Embodiments provide techniques, including systems and methods, for improving the accuracy of location information for requestor and provider devices in an dynamic transportation matching system using local communications between computing devices. For example, embodiments allow a provider computing device to identify, pair, and/or communicate with a requestor computing device upon arrival near a request location for a ride matching request. The provider computing device may use signal strength measurements associated with signals received from the requestor computing device to identify a proximity to the requestor computing device and/or to triangulate an accurate location of the requestor computing device. Additionally, the provider computing device may use a combination of the location reported by the ride matching system and the signal strength of the paired connection to identify the location of the requestor computing device.
