Systems and methods for managing space at a location for receiving assets
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for monitoring an available capacity at a location to provide a vehicle-based service, the method comprising:
- identifying, by a computing system that includes one or more computing devices, one or more assets that will arrive at a first location within a first transfer hub at an arrival time;
sending, by the computing system, data indicative of the one or more assets to a transportation network computing system associated with the first transfer hub;
obtaining, by the computing system, data indicative of an available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more assets at the arrival time; and
controlling, by the computing system, the one or more assets to adjust the arrival time of the one or more assets at the first location based at least in part on the available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more assets.

Abstract
In one example embodiment, a computer-implemented method for managing available capacity at a location for receiving an asset includes obtaining data indicative of one or more first assets that will arrive at a first location within a first transfer hub at an arrival time, the one or more first assets being associated with a first service provider. The method includes determining an available capacity at the first location within the first transfer hub for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time. The method includes moving one or more second assets positioned at the first location to a second location within the first transfer hub to increase the available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time.

4. A computer-implemented method for managing available capacity at a location for receiving an asset, the method comprising:
-
obtaining, by a computing system that includes one or more computing devices, data indicative of one or more first assets that will arrive at a first location within a first transfer hub at an arrival time, the one or more first assets being associated with a first service provider; obtaining, by the computing system, data indicative of a plurality of assets that will arrive at the first location between a current time and the arrival time, the plurality of assets associated with a plurality of service providers that include the first service provider; obtaining, by the computing system, data indicative of a transfer schedule for moving one or more assets in the plurality of assets away from the first location between the current time and the arrival time; determining, by the computing system, an available capacity at the first location within the first transfer hub for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time based, at least in part, on the data indicative of the plurality of assets that will arrive at the first location and the transfer schedule; and moving, by the computing system, one or more second assets positioned at the first location to a second location within the first transfer hub to increase the available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8)

9. A computing system for monitoring an available capacity at a location to provide a vehicle-based service, the computing system comprising:
-
one or more processors; and one or more tangible, non-transitory, computer readable media that collectively store instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the computing system to perform operations, the operations comprising; identifying one or more first assets scheduled to arrive at a first location within a first transfer hub at an arrival time; sending data indicative of the one or more first assets to a transportation network computing system associated with the first transfer hub; obtaining data indicative of an available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time; and controlling the one or more first assets to adjust the arrival time of the one or more assets at the first location based at least in part on the available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more assets. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)

-
one or more processors; and one or more tangible, non-transitory, computer readable media that collectively store instructions that when executed by the one or more processors cause the computing system to perform operations, the operations comprising; obtaining data indicative of one or more first assets scheduled to arrive at a first location within a first transfer hub at an arrival time, the one or more first assets being associated with a first service provider; obtaining, by the computing system, data indicative of a plurality of assets that will arrive at the first location between a current time and the arrival time, the plurality of assets associated with a plurality of service providers that include the first service provider; obtaining, by the computing system, data indicative of a transfer schedule for moving one or more assets in the plurality of assets away from the first location between the current time and the arrival time; determining an available capacity at the first location within the first transfer hub for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time based, at least in part, on the data indicative of the plurality of assets that will arrive at the first location and the transfer schedule; and moving one or more second assets positioned at the first location to a second location within the first transfer hub to increase the available capacity at the first location for receiving the one or more first assets at the arrival time. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
