Computing system implementing multiple driver selection processes based on device locations

Abstract:

A computing system can monitor, in real-time, a location of each respective computing device of the plurality of computing devices based on location data received from a location sensor of the respective computing device, and determine whether to subject a respective driver using the respective computing device to either a default set of rules or an alternative set of rules associated with a geofenced area, based on the location of the respective computing device relative to the geofenced area. For the geofenced area, the computing system can implement a queue selection process for drivers. Outside the geofenced area, the computing system can perform a default selection process.
