A method includes receiving, by a server computer, request from an end user of an item to deliver the item to a service provider. The method includes providing, by the server computer, a retrieval message to a transporter to travel to the end user to retrieve the item and determine if the item is suitable for return to the service provider, and receiving, by the server computer, an item confirmation message from the transporter that the item is suitable for return to the service provider. The method also includes receiving, by the server computer, a delivery confirmation message from the transporter that the item was successfully delivered to the service provider.

Efficient and accurate return package deliveries with distributed fleet

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing a signaling location beacon are provided. Specifically, a collection location for collecting, by an agent, an item is determined. Also, a physical beacon associated with the pickup location can be identified. Further, an interaction between the physical beacon and the agent can be detected. For example, the interaction can occur based on the physical beacon and the agent being in physical proximity to each other during a process of the agent collecting the item at the collection location. As follows, in response to the interaction, transmission of a sensory signal to the agent can be facilitated to provide perceivable direction information associated with the physical location to the agent. The sensory signal can be specific to the agent based on the interaction between the physical beacon and the agent.

Merchant signal location beacon

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing a signaling location beacon are provided. Specifically, a physical location for transferring a delivery from a delivery person to a customer can be determined. Also, a physical beacon associated with the physical location can be identified. Further, an interaction between the physical beacon and the delivery person can be detected. For example, the interaction can occur based on the physical beacon and the delivery person being in physical proximity to each other. As follows, in response to the interaction, transmission of a sensory signal to the delivery person can be facilitated to provide perceivable direction information associated with the physical location to the delivery person.

Systems and methods are provided to ingest data objects from a flat file server for use in one or more system operations including providing a renderable data object to a user and updating a data item database. As described, the ingestion system includes an ingestion module, a flat file module, a compliance module, and a deduplication module wherein the modules together ingest a flat file data object, parse and process a renderable data object from the flat file data object, and store the renderable data object in a renderable object database.

Server for ingesting and updating renderable data objects from a flat file server

Various methods are provided for facilitating access to linked information to GPS or short-range wireless equipped devices. One example method may comprise receiving, via a network, an indication of an interaction between a primary device and a third-party device, the indication comprising at least a first element and a second element, the first element indicative of user identification information and the second element indicative of at least one of a location or a bounded region, determining, as a function of at least the first element and the second element, a data object that upon validation is configured for use a subsequent interaction, and transmitting, to a mobile device, an electronic communication comprising an indication, configured for rendering on the mobile device, of the data object.

GPS determined location based access to linked information and delivery thereof

Systems and methods are provided to ingest and integrate data objects for use in one or more system operations including providing a renderable data object to a user and updating a data item database.

Server for ingesting and rendering data objects

Verification, validation, and updating (VVU) systems and methods for updating a data item database are described. The VVU system includes a user interface, a rendering module, and a verification module, which together present a data item to a user and update a data item database according to various factors described herein.

Server for verification, validation, and updating a data item database containing renderable data objects

Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for improving network database functionalities are discussed therein, such as a computer-implemented method including generating, in a network database, a first dataset associated with a client account, wherein the first dataset indicates a restricted value; receiving, from a client device associated with the client account, a first data linking query to associate the first dataset with an instrument identifier; generating, in the network database, a dataset pointer mapping the first dataset with the instrument identifier, wherein the instrument identifier is associated with a physical instrument; receiving a transmission indication associated with the physical instrument, wherein the transmission indication indicates the instrument identifier and a partial amount associated with the first dataset; updating, in the network database, the first dataset based on the transmission indication; and outputting, to the client device, a transmission notification indicating the updated first dataset.

Method, apparatus, and computer program product for network data linking and transmission thereof

A system and method for searching travel services. A server computer receives a travel request from a client device operated by a user. The server computer identifies travel options according to the travel request. The server computer classifies the travel options into predefined groups, the classifying based on at least one of past transactions, input from domain experts, input from semantic analysts, analytics data, user preferences, and company policies. The server computer presents the options via presentation of the predefined groups.
