1. A system for managing vehicle sensor data, the system comprising:
- one or more vehicle condition sensors communicating with communication hardware, the communication hardware configured to transmit vehicle condition sensor data to a central server;
wherein the central server is configured to;
aggregate vehicle condition sensor data by vehicle identifier and vehicle position;
determine a safety condition for the aggregated vehicle condition sensor data; and
transmit the safety condition to vehicles within an area around the safety condition, wherein the area is based on a classification of the safety condition.

Abstract
Systems and methods to determine vehicle safety conditions are provided. Techniques include receiving one or more vehicle conditions from vehicle sensors and sending the data to a centralized server. The data is aggregated based on vehicle identifier and location to determine the type and location of the safety condition. The determined safety condition is sent to one or more vehicles in the vicinity of the determined safety condition to alert the drivers of the hazard. The safety condition can be displayed as an overlay on a map to aid the driver in locating it.

19. One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed cause a computing system to:
-
receive vehicle condition sensor data from a plurality of vehicles, the vehicle condition sensor data associated with respective vehicle identifiers and vehicle positions; aggregate the vehicle condition sensor data based on vehicle identifier and vehicle position; compare the aggregated vehicle condition sensor data to predefined rules; determine a safety condition at a particular location; determine vehicle operation parameters from the aggregated vehicle condition sensor data; determine an operating path of vehicles based on respective vehicle operation parameters; and transmit the safety condition and the particular location to vehicles whose operating path intersects the particular location.
