Abstract
Example embodiments are directed to systems and methods for generating and providing elevation-aware hotspots. In example embodiments, a network system detects an initiation of a request for a transportation service at a client device of a user and receives an indication of a location of the client device and corresponding signal strengths associated with the client device. The network system then determines a telematics vector based on the signal strengths associated with the client device. Based on the location of the client device and the telematics vector associated with the client device, the network system identifies one or more top ranked elevation-aware hotspots. A pickup point recommendation is then presented, by the network system on a user interface on the client device of the user, whereby the pickup point recommendation includes the one or more top ranked elevation-aware hotspots.
