Systems and methods herein describe a network system for federated searching. The systems and methods receive a search query, transmit the search query to search providers, receive search results corresponding to the search query, extract metadata from each search result, generate matched groupings comprising a first search results that have matching metadata, generate a ranked list of the matched groupings and a plurality of relevance scores, identify a second subset of search results based on the ranked list of matched groupings, and cause display of the second subset of search results on a graphical user interface of a computing device.

Federated search system

Systems and methods are provided for receiving location data for a first location and a second location and generating a plurality of candidate routes to travel from the first location to the second location, based on the location data, each candidate route comprising a plurality of segments. The systems and methods further generate a safety score for each segment of each candidate route of the plurality of candidate routes, generate a safety score for each candidate route based on safety scores generated for each segment associated with each candidate route, select a best candidate route using the safety score associated with each of the candidate routes, and provide a recommendation for a travel route comprising the best candidate route.

Route safety determination system

Systems and methods are provided for receiving geographic coordinates for a location, determining a road segment associated with the location based on the geographic coordinates for the location, and determining a plurality of places associated with the road segment associated with the location. The systems and methods further provide for extracting visual data for each of the plurality of places, generating a plurality of feature values based on the visual data for each of the plurality of places, and analyzing the plurality of feature values to generate a visibility score for each of the plurality of places.

Place visibility scoring system

Systems and methods are provided for determining location data corresponding to a location of a user, retrieving candidate locations for pickup or drop-off locations based on the location data corresponding to the location of the user, and determining a safety score for each of the candidate locations. The systems and methods further select a best candidate location using the safety score associated with each of the candidate locations and provide a recommendation for a pickup or drop-off location comprising the best candidate location.

Location safety determination system

Systems and methods are provided for receiving location data for a first location and a second location and generating a plurality of candidate routes to travel from the first location to the second location, based on the location data, each candidate route comprising a plurality of segments. The systems and methods further generate a safety score for each segment of each candidate route of the plurality of candidate routes, generate a safety score for each candidate route based on safety scores generated for each segment associated with each candidate route, select a best candidate route using the safety score associated with each of the candidate routes, and provide a recommendation for a travel route comprising the best candidate route

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for providing a model of a vehicle to a rider. In an embodiment, the systems and methods determine that a driver has accepted a task to operate a vehicle from a first location to a rider location. The systems and methods then access a model corresponding to the vehicle, determine a direction of movement of the vehicle, and determine a relative orientation of the vehicle with respect to the rider based on the first location, the direction of movement of the vehicle, and the rider location. The systems and methods generate for display, on a client device of the rider, the model at an angle determined based on the relative orientation.
