Abstract

The subject disclosure relates to ways to ensure vehicle network connectivity. In some aspects, a process of the technology includes steps for receiving local network measurement data including one or more connectivity metrics for at least one network provider (e.g., an ISP), and updating a geo-connectivity database using the received local network measurement data. In some aspects, the process can include additional steps for transmitting a geo-connectivity request to a remote Intelligent Vehicle Connectivity Analytics (IVCA) gateway, and for receiving a geo-connectivity reply from the remote IVCA gateway, the geo-connectivity reply including information regarding network availability for the at least one network provider along a vehicle path. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
