Abstract
Disclosed are embodiments for facilitating a system-level optimization route and mode suggestion platform for transportation trips. In some aspects, an embodiment includes receiving identification of an origin (O) location and a destination (D) location of an O/D pair corresponding to a transportation trip request of a user; determining N pickup (PU) locations for the O location and N drop-off (DO) locations for the D location; determining an origin walk duration between each N PU locations and the O location and a destination walk duration between each N DO locations and the D location; routing between the N PU locations and the N DO locations to determine an estimate of in-vehicle time for each route; and selecting a route that minimizes a route score, wherein the route score is based on a sum of the origin walk duration, the in-vehicle time, and the destination walk duration.
