Automated vehicle ownership support
First Claim
1. A computer system for processing vehicle ownership support data, the computer system comprising:
- an infrastructure platform comprising a plurality of hardware and software components, infrastructure services, Application Program Interfaces (APIs), and Software Development Kits (SDKs) adapted to communicate in a communication network, the communication network comprising a plurality of web services for interacting with a plurality of vendors, wherein the plurality of vendors includes at least one fuel dispensing apparatus;
a memory configured to store one or more processes;
a processor adapted to execute the one or more processes using the infrastructure platform, the processor when executing the one or more processes, is operable to;
receive telematics data regarding at least one vehicle from at least one of a vehicle device and a cloud-based telematics platform associated with the vehicle wherein the telematics data includes at least one of vehicle identification data, driving performance data, vehicle operation data and vehicle sensor data;
identify one or more vehicle ownership support services associated with the at least one vehicle, wherein the one or more vehicle ownership support services include fuel dispensing services, and wherein the one or more vehicle ownership support services are accessible using a mobile application at a mobile device associated with the vehicle or a vehicle driver via the infrastructure platform;
analyze the telematics data associated with the one or more vehicle ownership support services;
determine a low fuel condition below a predetermined threshold based on analysis of the telematics data;
determine a location of the vehicle based on at least one of the telematics data and a location of the mobile device associated with the vehicle;
in response to determining the low fuel condition, identify one or more fuel dispensing stations in proximity to the location of the vehicle;
provide information related to the one or more fuel dispensing stations to the mobile application;
determine that the vehicle is within a predetermined distance of one of the one or more fuel dispensing stations;
in response to determining that the vehicle is within the predetermined distance of one of the one or more fuel dispensing stations, determine a scope of fueling permissions associated with the vehicle identification data at the one of the one or more fuel dispensing stations; and
automatically initiate a fueling session at the one of the one or more fuel dispensing stations contingent upon the scope of fueling permission.

Abstract
A computer system for processing vehicle ownership support data includes an infrastructure platform which includes a plurality of hardware and software components, infrastructure services, APIs, and SDKs adapted to communicate in a communication network. The infrastructure platform receives telematics data such as vehicle identification data, driving performance data, vehicle operation data and vehicle sensor data for a corresponding vehicle. Such telematics data can be received from a vehicle device (Onboard Device (OBD)), or from a cloud-based telematics platform. The infrastructure platform identifies vehicle ownership support services associated with the at least one vehicle and analyzes the received telematics data associated with the identified services. The infrastructure platform provides vehicle ownership support services to a mobile application accessible at a customer'"'"'s mobile device associated with the vehicle or the customer. Such services may include, without limitations, automated fuel dispensing, emergency roadside assistance, vehicle maintenance and repair assistance, and the like.
