Abstract

A database comprising data associated with one or more routes is maintained. The data associated with the one or more routes comprises difficulty level data for utilizing one or more mobility assistive tools to traverse the one or more routes. In response to receiving a query from a given computing device, one or more amounts of physical exertion for a given user to traverse at least a portion of the one or more routes utilizing a given mobility assistive tool are predicted. One or more routes for the given user to traverse are selected based at least in part on the predicted amounts of physical exertion. One or more contextual factors of the given user are estimated to at least one of optimize and prioritize the selected one or more routes for the given user based on analyzing user data.
