Abstract:
The present application discloses an improved transportation matching system, and corresponding methods and computer-readable media. According to disclosed embodiments, a transportation matching system provides a virtual queue in connection with a congested venue. In response to receiving a transportation request from a requestor at a congested venue, the system adds the requestor to a virtual queue. The system then adjusts the virtual queue position as necessary based on the requestor's speed and direction of travel in relation to the venue's pickup location. When the requestor reaches the front of the virtual queue, the system provides a requestor identifier to the requestor. The requestor can then use the requestor identifier to engage any available provider at the venue's pickup location.

Claim (Index 20):
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a system to:\n receive a transportation request from a requestor computing device associated with a venue; assign, in response to receiving the transportation request, a queue position within a virtual queue to the requestor computing device based at least in part on location data associated with the requestor computing device and an estimated time of arrival for the requestor computing device at a pickup location associated with the venue; monitor, after assigning the queue position to the requestor computing device, the location data associated with the requestor computing device; based on the location data of the requestor computing device, reassign the requestor computing device to a different queue position within the virtual queue; determine, based on a number of currently issued requestor identifiers, a number of currently available provider computing devices, and a number of pickup positions within the pickup location, a variable number of top virtual queue positions available to receive a requestor identifier; determine that the reassigned queue position of the requestor computing device is within the variable number of top virtual queue positions; provide, in response to determining that the reassigned queue position of the requestor computing device is within the variable number of top virtual queue positions, a requestor identifier for display on the requestor computing device; receive, from a provider computing device associated with the venue, a requestor identifier; and in response to receiving the requestor identifier from the provider computing device, updating, within the transportation matching system, a status for the transportation request to indicate that the transportation request has been matched to the provider computing device.
