Abstract

Techniques are described that facilitate authenticating and verifying pick-ups and deliveries associated with an autonomous vehicle delivery service. In one example embodiment, a method comprises accessing, by a system comprising a processor, authentication information associated with a target physical location, wherein the authentication information comprises network access information for a communication network associated with the target physical location. The method further comprises verifying, by the system, whether a current location of an autonomous vehicle corresponds to the target physical location based on an ability of a communication device of the autonomous vehicle to establish a network connection with the communication network using the network access information.
