Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method for configuring indication devices in transportation services. The method includes receiving a first transportation request which includes a first passenger pick-up point located in a preset geographical area, and the first transportation request matches a first vehicle associated with a first indication device. The method also includes receiving a second transportation request which includes a second passenger pick-up point located in the preset geographical area, and the second transportation request matches a second vehicle associated with a second indication device. The method further includes determining a time difference between a first estimated time for the first vehicle to arrive in the preset geographical area and a second estimated time for the second vehicle to arrive in the preset geographical area, and sending first indication information to the first indication device and second indication information to the second indication device according to the time difference.
