Abstract
A transport system can receive vehicle data from each self-driving vehicle (SDV) in a fleet of SDVs operating throughout a given region. The transport system may further detect, in the vehicle data, a set of properties of one or more other vehicles external to the SDV. Based on the set of properties of the one or more vehicles, the transport system can construct traffic model(s) for the given region. Utilizing the traffic model(s), the transport system can provide estimated time of arrival (ETA) data, corresponding to SDVs in the fleet, to users of a transportation arrangement service in the given region.
