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.

Claim (Index 8):
A computer-implemented vehicle routing method comprising:\n remotely controlling a locomotion component of a vehicle routing the vehicle along a vehicle route; determining a set of geographic regions that a vehicle is to travel through based on a vehicle route that defines vertical coordinates in a three-dimensional space towards a destination; during a time period of vehicle travel along the vehicle route, collecting external signals associated with the set of geographic regions; detecting a set of events associated with the set of geographic regions based on the external signals; determining event parameters for the set of events, the event parameters describing the event; identifying an event from the set of events based on the event parameters; further remotely controlling the locomotion component automatically 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; and remotely controlling a locomotion component of a second vehicle dynamically re-routing the second vehicle toward the event based on the event parameters, including:\n estimating, for the second vehicle, a waypoint arrival time associated with a geographic region of the set of geographic regions based on a second vehicle parameter, the geographic region corresponding to the event; and \n in response to the waypoint arrival time being earlier than an estimated end time of the identified event re-routing of the second vehicle.
