Abstract

A computing system can receive utilization data from computing devices of requesting users. The system can process the utilization data by (i) executing a transit monitoring engine on the utilization data to detect a cluster of requesting users currently being transported by a third-party transit vehicle to an arrival location of the third-party transit vehicle, and (ii) executing a transport coordination engine on the utilization data to determine, for each requesting user in the cluster, an intent of the requesting user corresponding to a probability that the requesting user will utilize the transport service upon arrival at the arrival location of the third-party transit vehicle.
