Abstract

A micromobility transit vehicle service task management system and related methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system determines service tasks to be executed based on a level of availability of one or more micromobility transit vehicles. A value for each of the tasks is determined based on a cost to perform the task and value generated by an increase in availability of the one or more micromobility transit vehicles, for dynamic transportation matching, from execution of the task. The tasks may be prioritized into an order of execution that maximizes a total of the values of the tasks. The determined values of the tasks may be adjusted in the prioritization of the tasks based on the order of execution of the tasks. A navigational task route may be generated based on the prioritized tasks and assigned to a technician device to guide a technician to each of the tasks.
