PREDICTIVE LOCATION SELECTION OPTIMIZATION SYSTEM

Abstract:

A system can receive, over one or more networks, location data from a computing device of a requesting user, where the location data indicates a current position of the requesting user. The system can repeatedly determine, based at least in part on location data corresponding to a directional heading of a proximate transport provider in relation to the current position of the requesting user, an optimal rendezvous location for the requesting user prior to the requesting user transmitting a service request to the network computer system. The system may then transmit, over the one or more networks, data corresponding to the optimal rendezvous location to the computing device of the requesting user.
