Abstract
The present application discloses an improved transportation matching system, and corresponding methods and computer-readable media. According to disclosed embodiments, a transportation matching system trains a predictive request model to generate a metric predicted to trigger an increase in transportation provider activity within the geographic area for a given time period. Furthermore, the system determines a predicted gap between expected request activity and expected transportation provider activity for the geographic area during a future time period, utilizes the predictive request model and the predicted gap to generate a metric for the geographic area, and generates an interactive map associated with a customized schedule for the geographic area and the future time period based on the generated metric.
