Abstract

A method is provided for using sensor sources near a target destination to identify conflicts with an approach plan to the target destination, and more particularly, to soliciting sensor data from sensor sources having the target destination within their field of view to identify conflicts with an approach plan to the target destination. Methods may include: identifying a vehicle approaching a target destination with a target destination delivery plan for an article; identifying at least one sensor source proximate the target destination; obtaining sensor data from the at least one sensor source proximate the target destination; determining, based on the sensor data from the at least one sensor source proximate the target destination, a conflict with the target destination delivery plan for the article; and causing the target destination delivery plan for the article to change in response to the conflict with the target destination delivery plan for the article.
