Determining Speed Parameters In A Geographic Area
First Claim
1. A carrier computer system comprising a central computing device having one or more memory storage areas and one or more processors, the central computing device configured to:
- identify a geofenced area that (a) corresponds to a geographic area and (b) comprises one or more street segments;
receive geofenced area data associated with a first street segment of the one or more street segments, wherein (a) the geofenced area data is collected in real time while at least one of (i) a delivery vehicle or (ii) a delivery vehicle driver is operating within the geofenced area and (b) the geofenced area data comprises speed data associated with the first street segment;
determine a speed limit for the first street segment, wherein the speed limit is determined based at least in part on the speed data; and
associate the speed limit with the first street segment of the geofenced area.

Abstract
Systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program products are provided for assigning parameters to a geographic area, wherein the parameters may be used to associate a speed limit with the geographic area. For example, in one embodiment, a geofenced area that (a) corresponds to a geographic area and (b) comprises one or more street segments is identified. Additionally, speed data associated with one of more of the street segments is received. After receiving the speed data, a speed limit is (a) determined for one or more of the street segments and (b) associated with the geofenced area.
