    Abstract: A precision usage-based transportation infrastructure charging service includes a dynamic road and infrastructure usage engine that can fairly assess road usage based on any combination of mileage, time of day, vehicle mass, location, road class, defined zones and other relevant parameters. This flexible service leverages detailed vehicle driving information to generate road usage summaries, detailed validation data, and invoices or bills where appropriate. This service applies not only to movement along road networks, but also includes time-based and complex rules that support usage-based charging within parking lots, and usage-based charging based on per-person transportation efficiency and environmental impact.

    Abstract: A transit fare approach that offers a transit agency the ability to cap how many transit passes of a particular type in a given fare cycle would be equivalent of buying a discounted transit product (like a weekly pass, a bi-weekly pass, or a monthly pass). Once this equivalent is reached by a rider, the system automatically gives the rider the corresponding discount pass for free. The free pass remains activated and good for the remainder of the fare cycle. A software module provides a user app for the rider's mobile device and a controller app for a control unit of the transit agency, both of which operate in conjunction with each other to monitor the use of transit passes by the rider to determine when the rider qualifies for the fare cap-based free transit product and subsequently reward the rider with the free use of the appropriate transit product.

    Abstract: An electronic toll data collection management system comprises a plurality of nodes, wherein at least one of the plurality of nodes is a toll collection point, wherein the toll collection point comprises: a computing system; and a receiver; wherein each of the plurality of nodes has access to a copy of a distributed ledger, wherein the processor of each of the plurality of nodes is configured to: utilize blockchain protocols to verify and record a transaction occurring within the distributed ledger; parse through the blockchain to locate the block containing the transmitted data from the transmitter, de-encrypt the block, and extract the data; and encrypt a new block indicating a debit to an account of an operator of a vehicle, wherein the account is identifiable through the transmitted data from the transmitter.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a computer-implemented method. The method may include receiving identification information of a vehicle and identification information of a parking space to bind the vehicle with the parking space and generate binding information, receiving a time when the vehicle enters the parking space and a time when the vehicle exits the parking space, calculating a parking fee of the vehicle according to the time when the vehicle enters the parking space and the time when the vehicle exits the parking space, determining identification information of a shopping cart that corresponds to the vehicle according to the identification information of the vehicle, the binding information of the vehicle and the parking space, and a correspondence between the parking space and the shopping cart, and sending the parking fee of the vehicle to the shopping cart that corresponds to the identification information of the shopping cart.
