Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for managing the routing and replication of data in the upload direction in a network of moving things. At a first node of a network including a plurality of nodes, wireless communication may be established with one or more other nodes of the plurality of nodes, and node related information associated with the first node and at least one other node may be obtained. The node related information may relate to node physical location, node movement, node wireless communication link performance, and/or identity of node resident data. When a data bundle is available for processing, based on the node related information and a set of rules for the first node for a direction of communication of the data bundle, one action supported by the first node may be selected and preformed, with the action including transmitting, storing, or dropping the data bundle.
