Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- connecting to a remote system and requesting data relating to a quality of air level in the vicinity of a known vehicle location;
receiving data relating to the quality of air level;
comparing the data to one or more predetermined threshold levels of tolerance, wherein, if the data exceeds at least one threshold level of tolerance an automatic vehicle computing system response is instructed; and
activating one or more vehicle systems in response to the data exceeding the at least one threshold level of tolerance.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes connecting to a remote system and requesting data relating to a quality of air level in the vicinity of a known vehicle location. The method further includes receiving data relating to the quality of air level and comparing the data to one or more predetermined threshold levels of tolerance. If the data exceeds at least one threshold level of tolerance an automatic vehicle computing system response is instructed. In this example, the method also includes activating one or more vehicle systems in response to the data exceeding the at least one threshold level of tolerance.

11. A computer implemented method comprising:
-
comparing data relating to a quality of air level in the vicinity of a known vehicle location to one or more predetermined threshold levels of tolerance, wherein, if the data exceeds at least one threshold level of tolerance a vehicle routing system is instructed to determine if a secondary route to a requested destination exists that avoids at least some portion of an area, as indicated by the data, wherein one or more threshold levels of tolerance is exceeded; receiving data relating to the route and data relating to at least one primary route to the requested destination, wherein the at least one primary route is a route based at least in part on time efficiency; comparing a projected time difference between the secondary route and the primary route; and presenting the secondary route as a route to be traveled if the projected time difference is below a threshold level of time difference. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor of a vehicle computing system, cause the vehicle computing system to execute the method comprising:
-
connecting to a remote system and requesting data relating to a quality of air level in the vicinity of a known vehicle location; receiving data relating to the quality of air level; comparing the data to one or more predetermined threshold levels of tolerance, wherein, if the data exceeds at least one threshold level of tolerance an automatic vehicle computing system response is instructed; and activating one or more vehicle systems in response to the data exceeding the at least one threshold level of tolerance. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
