Abstract:
Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for providing users with access to a route for travelling. A user, of a client device, may send a request for access to the route to a route planning service. The route may correspond to a starting location and an ending location. The route planning service may query a route database to identify an entry indicating that a restricted access road segment (e.g., a high occupancy vehicle lane, a shoulder lane, a bus lane, etc.) and/or a road segment (e.g., comprising a traffic light alteration capability) exists between the starting location and the ending location. Responsive to successfully authorizing the user for travelling the restricted access road segment and/or the road segment, the route, comprising the restricted access road segment and/or the road segment, may be provided to the client device.
Abstract:
Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for authorizing an action using vehicle identification information (e.g., supplied by a vehicle) and user identification information (e.g., supplied by a mobile device associated with a user of the vehicle). Such an action may relate to, among other things, refueling the vehicle, parking the vehicle, using a fee-based road segment, and/or other vehicle-centric actions, for example. Moreover, in one embodiment, as part of the authorization, a payment transaction may be initiated by an authorization system configured to authorize the action.

Abstract:
One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for analyzing driver movement. For example, map data is evaluated to identify a point of interest such as a car dealership. A geofence zone is defined to encompass the point of interest within the map (e.g., the car dealership, a parking lot for the car dealership, etc.). Location data, such as global positioning system data, of vehicles is evaluated to determine a count of vehicles that encountered the geofence zone. A visitor count of drivers that visited the car dealership is determined based upon the count of vehicles (e.g., vehicles that remained within the geofence zone for a threshold amount of time indicative of a visit). Driver demographics, vehicle type distributions, and/or other information is determined for the point of interest and/or other points of interest (e.g., distributions of vehicle types that visit the car dealership compared to a local body shop).

Abstract:
For an advertisement opportunity near a travel region, advertisements may be selected that are targeted to individuals who are likely to view the advertisement. However, travel patterns among individuals sharing particular traits may exist that facilitate targeted advertising, but may be non-intuitive and therefore difficult to predict, and other techniques, such as population surveys, may be costly and inaccurate. Presented herein are techniques for automatically evaluating travel patterns by tracking the routes of particular individuals, and inferring demographics for such individuals based on the locations of their routes (e.g., an individual whose route frequently includes a residence may be presumed to share the population demographics of the residential neighborhood). Extrapolating such individual demographics may enable inference of shared demographics at particular advertisement opportunities (e.g., among travelers who frequently travel on a particular road at a particular time of day) and the selection of advertisements more closely targeting such individuals.
