Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for processing reports received from vehicles. A processing device perform operations comprising receiving a first report from a first vehicle, the first report generated by the first vehicle for a first hazard detected by the first vehicle; receiving a second report from a second vehicle, the second report generated by the second vehicle for a second hazard detected by the second vehicle; analyzing the first report and the second report to make a determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard; aggregating the first report and the second report into a consolidated report based on the determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard; and processing the consolidated report to identify a contributing factor to the related hazard.

Claims (40)

1. At least one non-transitory machine readable medium including instructions that, when executed, cause a processing circuitry to perform operations comprising:

receiving a first report from a first vehicle, the first report generated by the first vehicle for a first hazard detected by the first vehicle;

receiving a second report from a second vehicle, the second report generated by the second vehicle for a second hazard detected by the second vehicle;

analyzing the first report and the second report to make a determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard;

aggregating the first report and the second report into a consolidated report based on the determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard; and

processing the consolidated report to identify a contributing factor to the related hazard.

2. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

generating a display of a map including the related hazard from the consolidated report.

3. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 2 , wherein the related hazard is represented on the map at a center location of the first hazard and the second hazard.

4. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 2 , wherein the display of the map includes a counter indicating a number detected hazards.

5. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard is based on a location of the first hazard in the first report and a location of the second hazard in the second report.

6. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

performing a simulation to mitigate the related hazard, the simulation including a physical measure change in an environment of the related hazard.

7. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the related hazard involved a pedestrian.

8. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the related hazard involved a cyclist.

9. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the related hazard includes at least one of a vehicle, a child riding on a toy vehicle, a wheelchair user, a structural barrier, a traffic sign, a tree, a wall, and a pole.

10. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise

processing the consolidated report to identify a root cause of the related hazard.

11. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first report includes one or more images associated with the detected first hazard.

12. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first report includes an indication of a location of the detected first hazard.

13. The at least one non-transitory machine readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first report includes an indication of a time when first hazard was detected.

14. A method for processing reports received from vehicles, the method comprising:

receiving a first report from a first vehicle, the first report generated by the first vehicle for a first hazard detected by the first vehicle;

receiving a second report from a second vehicle, the second report generated by the second vehicle for a second hazard detected by the second vehicle;

analyzing the first report and the second report to make a determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard;

aggregating the first report and the second report into a consolidated report based on the determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard; and

processing the consolidated report to identify a contributing factor to the related hazard.

15. The method of claim 14 , the method further comprising:

generating a display of a map including the related hazard from the consolidated report.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard is based on a location of the first hazard in the first report and a location of the second hazard in the second report.

17. The method of claim 14 , the method further comprising:

performing a simulation to mitigate the related hazard, the simulation including a physical measure change in an environment of the related hazard.

18. The method of claim 14 , wherein the related hazard involved a pedestrian.

19. The method of claim 14 , wherein the related hazard involved a cyclist.

20. A system for processing reports received from vehicles, the system including a server operable to:

receive a first report from a first vehicle, the first report generated by the first vehicle for a first hazard detected by the first vehicle;

receive a second report from a second vehicle, the second report generated by the second vehicle for a second hazard detected by the second vehicle;

analyze the first report and the second report to make a determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard;

aggregate the first report and the second report into a consolidated report based on the determination that the first report and the second report identify a related hazard; and

process the consolidated report to identify a contributing factor to the related hazard.
