Abstract:

The present disclosure is directed to configuring vehicle communications. In particular, a computing system comprising one or more computing devices physically located onboard a vehicle can communicate a plurality of different and distinct types of information associated with the vehicle to a remotely located computing system via a data stream transmitted from the vehicle to the remotely located computing system. The computing system can determine one or more changes in at least one of a mode, state, or context of the vehicle, and responsive to determining the change(s), the computing system can modify one or more parameters of the data stream transmitted from the vehicle to the remotely located computing system.
