Abstract

A network system facilitates management of the operational states of transportation vehicles. Within a system environment, the network system also coordinates transport service between service providers operating the transportation vehicles and service requestors operating client devices. A transportation vehicle includes a processor or computing device that can determine and change operational states of the transportation vehicle. The transportation vehicle communicates operational states to one or more devices in the environment. Operational states can be communicated as vehicle datasets using a communication port of the transportation vehicle. The network system and client devices can act to enhance transport service using vehicle datasets. For example, the network system and/or client devices can manage an operational state by changing the current operational state off the transportation vehicle to a different operational state. Transport service can be enhanced at various points during the transport service coordination.
