Abstract

A vehicle routing evaluation system makes predictions about network performance data along road segments relevant to navigation of a vehicle and generates routing instructions or recommendations based in part on the network performance data. The vehicle routing evaluation system may send control signals to automatically control navigation of the vehicle to follow the routing generated routing or may present the navigation instructions to a teleoperator that controls the vehicle. Alternatively, the vehicle routing evaluation system generates a display with a navigational map overlay providing visual cues indicative of predicted wireless performance along various road segments to enable the teleoperator to select between possible routes.
