Abstract:
Embodiments of a method and/or system for facilitating event-based vehicle operation can include determining a vehicle route; determining geographic regions for the vehicle route; monitoring the determined geographic regions for events; determining an event of interest from the detected events; and/or dynamically facilitating modification of vehicular operation of the vehicle based on the event of interest, such as in response to determination of the event of interest. In one aspect, a vehicle is routed towards an event of interest and assists in remediating the event (or an impact thereof).

Claim (Index 15):
A method comprising:\n controlling a locomotion component of a vehicle routing the vehicle along a vehicle route; determining a set of geographic regions that the vehicle is to travel through based on a vehicle route that defines vertical travel coordinates in a three-dimensional space; during vehicle travel along the vehicle route, collecting sensor data associated with the set of geographic regions; detecting a set of events associated with the set of geographic regions based on the sensor data; determining event parameters describing each event in the set of events, including for each event in the set of events:\n determining an event category probability based on the sensor data associated with the event; and \n in response to the event category probability exceeding a category probability threshold, categorizing the event with an event category; \n identifying an event from the set of events based on the event parameters, an event category associated with the event, and a vehicle parameter associated with the vehicle; further controlling the locomotion component re-routing the vehicle along an adjusted vehicle route towards the event in response to identifying the event, the adjusted vehicle route defining adjusted vertical coordinates in the three-dimensional space distinct from the vertical coordinates.
