Method of transferring data between vehicles

1. A method for determining a time for scheduling wireless transfer of payload data to a first vehicle from a second vehicle, said method comprising:

determining payload data for transfer from a second vehicle to a first vehicle;

receiving first movement profile data for the first vehicle, the first movement profile data defining geographical position and time data for the first vehicle;

receiving second movement profile data for the second vehicle, the second movement profile data defining geographical position and time data for the second vehicle;

processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for a payload-data-transfer; and

sending scheduling data to the first vehicle and the second vehicle scheduling a transmission of the payload data from the second vehicle to the first vehicle at the scheduling time.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer comprises processing said first and second movement profiles in conjunction with one another.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting the second vehicle, wherein said second vehicle is selected by comparing second movement profile data for a plurality of vehicles possessing said payload data with the first movement profile data for said first vehicle, and concluding a match between said first vehicle and second vehicle, said match being the result of processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer in that it is determined in that second vehicle is likely to be in sufficient wireless proximity with said first vehicle at one or more future times.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein receiving first movement profile data for the first vehicle further comprises:

receiving first movement profile data derived from a GNSS/GPS system of the first vehicle.

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein receiving second movement profile data for the second vehicle further comprises:

receiving second movement profile data derived from a GNSS/GPS system of the second vehicle.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first movement profile data or the second movement profile data includes one or more scheduled or possible attendance at events or appointments.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 where at least one of the first movement profile data or the second movement profile data defines an event name or identifier.

8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first historical movement profile data or the second movement profile data defines an appointment location and time.

9. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first movement profile data or the second movement profile data of is derived from an electronic calendar or diary.

10. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first movement profile data or the second movement profile data is derived from a social media or forum website accessed by a person associated with the relevant vehicle.

11. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first movement profile data or the second movement profile data is derived from or via a personal device associated with a person associated with the relevant vehicle.

12. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer comprises:

determining temporal patterns of one or more of the first and second movement profile data.

13. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer further comprises:

determining, from said first and second movement profile data, distance between the two first and second vehicles against time, and wherein scheduling a transmission of the payload data at the scheduling time comprises determining likely times where said distance is at a minimum or within sufficient wireless proximity.

14. The method as claimed in claim 13 wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer comprises:

determining temporal patterns in the distance between the first and second vehicles against time.

15. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first movement profile data or the second movement profile data is forwarded to a central or remote entity, wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer is performed by the entity, and wherein scheduling a transmission of the payload data at the scheduling time is performed by the entity.

16. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one of said scheduling time, said first movement profile data, or said second movement profile data are sent or received by at least one of said vehicles, via a personal device associated with a person associated with said vehicle.

17. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

processing the first and second movement profile data to provide refined movement profile data.

18. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

initiating the transmission of the payload data at the scheduling time.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer comprises:

comparing the first movement profile data and the second movement profile data.

20. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein scheduling a transmission of the payload data at the scheduling time comprises:

determining times where said distance is at a minimum or within sufficient wireless proximity.

21. The method as claimed in claim 20 wherein processing the first and second movement profile data to determine a scheduling time when the first vehicle and the second vehicle will be in requisite wireless proximity for the payload-data-transfer comprises:

determining temporal patterns in the distance between the first and second vehicles against time.
