Abstract
A method, computer program product, and a system where a processor(s) monitors activities of a user operating a vehicle with a navigational device providing route guidance, via a first route, to a geographic destination. The processor(s) identifies driving patterns of the user to generate a driver profile for the user, including a baseline activity pattern. The processor(s) determines, at a given time, that the monitored activities of the user are outside of the baseline activity pattern and enables an integrated image capture device in the vehicle and captures images of an environment outside of a the vehicle. The processor(s) utilizes the image capture device, to capture images and derives data describing environmental conditions, based on performing a semantic analysis of the images. The processor(s) transmits the data to a repository and generates a second route to the destination, based on the driver profile and relevant data from the repository data.
