LANE DETERMINATION BASED ON SPATIAL DATA FROM LOCAL SOURCES
First Claim
1. A method for determining an optimal lane recommendation of a road having a plurality of lanes for a primary vehicle within an optimal guided route to a destination, the method comprising:
- retrieving local environment data comprising real-time spatial data directly from at least one local source, the at least one local source comprising at least one sensor in an other vehicle;
determining an optimal recommended lane of the road from the plurality of lanes of the road to minimize travel time for the primary vehicle, based on the directly retrieved environment data from the at least one source within a specific distance from the primary vehicle; and
displaying the optimal recommended lane of the road for travel of the primary vehicle within the optimal guided route to the destination through an interface to a user.

Abstract
A method, computer program product and system for determining an optimal lane recommendation of a road having a plurality of lanes for a primary vehicle within an optimal guided route to a destination. The steps including retrieving local environment data comprising real-time spatial data directly from at least one local source, the at least one local source comprising at least one sensor in an other vehicle; determining an optimal recommended lane of the road from the plurality of lanes of the road to minimize travel time for the primary vehicle, based on the directly retrieved environment data from the at least one source within a specific distance from the primary vehicle; and displaying the optimal recommended lane of the road for travel of the primary vehicle within the optimal guided route to the destination through an interface to a user.
