Abstract

Implementations of various methods and systems to transform navigation routes with two waypoints or a destination waypoint or a series sequence of waypoints into objects which are communities to which user(s) may subscribe, friend, follow or be a member of the community. The present disclosed invention relates to combining the concepts of objected oriented programming and navigation systems and social networking and transportation as a fungible asset class or transportation as an open market.

Claims (93)

1. A computer implemented method comprising:

(a) inputting a plurality of virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences in a network member system;

(b) storing a plurality of virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences in a network member system;

(c) generating instructions for naming conventions for virtual hub waypoint sequence(s);

(d) generating instructions to create virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequence(s) as community object(s);

(e) generating instructions to make virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequence(s) community object(s) searchable by attribute names and combinations;

(f) generating instructions to assign virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequence(s) as community objects(s) to network members of the system;

(g) receiving instructions from user(s) to join, friend, subscribe, add the user to incremental virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences as community object(s);

(h) receiving instructions from user(s) to unjoin, unfriend, unsubscribe, subtract the user from virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences as community object(s);

(i) generating instructions to recommend virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences as community object(s) to user(s) based on travel patterns and waypoint sequences in user travel history and request history;

(j) generating instructions to provide a gateway from waypoint community object(s) to a forward market transportation unit transaction system.

2. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying the number of network members that have been assigned to the virtual hub sequence community object.

3. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising recommending virtual hub sequence community to network member(s).

4. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying the attributes of a virtual hub sequence community object including information:

about the route virtual hub sequence;

number of members who have been assigned to the route sequence;

sharing the virtual hub route sequence;

virtual hub pick up address and geolocation detail;

virtual hub drop off address and geolocation detail;

activity on the route sequence including;

(a) number of riders;

(b) number of drivers;

(c) number of seats;

(d) number of trades;

(e) frequency of transport units on route sequence;

(f) volume of transportation units on route sequence;

(g) daily high price of the virtual hub route sequence;

(h) daily low price of the virtual hub route sequence;

(i) annual high price of the virtual hub route sequence;

(j) annual low price of the virtual hub route sequence;

(k) news/research/trending/feeds for the virtual hub route sequence.

5. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying virtual hub sequence combinations.

6. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying virtual hub sequence combinations and recommendations for user(s) on incremental virtual hub sequence combinations that a user should become a member.

7. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying virtual hub sequence community objects with a metadata tag such as #, @, or other metadata symbols.

8. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying virtual hub sequence community objects in categories such as most popular, highest volume, most used, safest, trending, trending with geolocation attributes, recommended, highest value, most expensive, cheapest, lowest cost, least expensive.

9. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising assigning members to virtual hub sequence community object(s) is based on geolocation activity of the user(s) and search activity of the user.

10. The computer implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising assigning members to virtual hub sequence community object(s) is based on user profile home and work addresses.

11. A computer system comprising:

networks; and

community route processors; and

my route processors; and

sequence route processors; and

client computing devices; and

global positioning system networks; and

mobile computing devices; and

(f) instructions for generating instructions to assign virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequence(s) as community objects(s) to network members of the system;

(g) instructions for receiving instructions from user(s) to join, friend, subscribe, add the user to incremental virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences as community object(s);

(h) instructions for receiving instructions from user(s) to unjoin, unfriend, unsubscribe, subtract the user from virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences as community object(s);

(i) instructions for generating instructions to recommend virtual hub waypoint(s) and virtual hub waypoint sequences as community object(s) to user(s) based on travel patterns and waypoint sequences in user travel history and request history;
