TRANSIT LOCATION SYSTEM

Abstract:

A network system receives a transport request from a user device for a route from a first location to a destination, the route including at least a first leg to an intermediate location using a first type of transportation and a second leg from the intermediate location to the destination using a second type of transportation. The network system receives transit data associated with the first type of transportation, and determines, based on a location of the user device and the transit data, that a user of the user device is following the route. The network system schedules, at a time determined based on the location of the user device, a provider to transport the user along the second leg of the route.
