摘要： Location-based virtual queuing of vehicles is described. A request to join a virtual queue may be received from a user application. In response to receiving the request, the server may determine, using a geo-fencing feature, if the user computing device running the user application is within a first predetermined distance of a queue location, where the queue location is a destination of the requesting user vehicle. Then, in response to receiving confirmation that the requesting vehicle user is within the first predetermined distance, the server may automatically create and add a reservation message to a data structure that includes a plurality of reservation messages. Also, in response to the creating the reservation message, the server may provide the requesting user application a notification with the position within a queue managed by the data structure and an estimated wait time that is generated using information stored within the data structure.
