    摘要: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include matching transportation requests (e.g., made to a dynamic transportation matching system) to one or more transportation providers via transfer points. Matching one or more transportation requestors to a single transportation provider may lead to inefficiencies. By matching transportation requestors with one or more transportation providers via transfer points, a dynamic transportation matching system may increase the efficiency of trips for both transportation providers and transportation requestors. The method may also allocate transportation resources more efficiently across different regions, areas, and/or types of transit areas. In addition, the method may efficiently distribute transportation requestors across different transit options throughout a region to minimize congestion, to minimize over-usage of some constrained transit options, and/or to minimize travel time of transportation providers and/or transportation requestors throughout the region. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
