Systems and methods for automatic vehicle loading and unloading on vehicle transports

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a processor, geolocation data from a subject vehicle;

determining, by the processor, a subject vehicle has entered a transporter vehicle based on location information of the subject vehicle in the geolocation data; and

determining, by the processor, a parking location within the transporter vehicle at which the subject vehicle is to park in response to determining the subject vehicle has entered the transporter vehicle,

wherein the subject vehicle receives a communication from the transporter vehicle regarding the parking location upon determining the subject vehicle has entered the transporter vehicle.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of a plurality of subject vehicles to be loaded onto or unloaded off of the transporter vehicle is assigned to the parking location on the transporter vehicle as part of a vehicle manifest.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of a plurality of subject vehicles are loaded in assigned parking locations on the transporter vehicle.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein:

the transporter vehicle summons the subject vehicle based on the parking location in the vehicle manifest.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the transporter vehicle communicates with the subject vehicle regarding loading, unloading, or both; and

the subject vehicle is an autonomous vehicle that personnel summon, via a web app, onto the transporter vehicle to auto-park or to depart the transporter vehicle.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

outputting a notification based upon the subject vehicle entering the transporter vehicle; and

determining the parking location within the transporter vehicle at which the subject vehicle is to park subsequent to entering the transporter vehicle.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the subject vehicle is driven onto the transporter vehicle; and

the subject vehicle provides location data to a cloud-based geo-location tool.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein

the subject vehicle is periodically pinged for its location after entering the transporter vehicle.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining upon which level the subject vehicle is to park; and

utilizing key-off data to determine where the vehicle has parked.

10. A system comprising:

a memory and a processor coupled to the memory;

a reporting module utilizing the processor, the reporting module configured to:

receive geolocation data from a subject vehicle; and

determine a subject vehicle has entered a transporter vehicle based on location information of the subject vehicle in the geolocation data; and

a coordination module configured to determine a parking location within the transporter vehicle at which the subject vehicle is to park in response to determining the subject vehicle has entered the transporter vehicle,

wherein the subject vehicle receives a communication regarding the parking location upon determining the subject vehicle has entered the transporter vehicle.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein:

the transporter vehicle communicates with a plurality of subject vehicles, wherein each of the plurality of subject vehicles to be loaded onto or unloaded off of the transporter vehicle is assigned to the parking location on the transporter vehicle as part of a vehicle manifest.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein:

the transporter vehicle communicates with a plurality of subject vehicles, wherein each of the plurality of subject vehicles are loaded in assigned parking locations on the transporter vehicle.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein:

the transporter communicates with the subject vehicle, wherein:

the transporter vehicle summons the subject vehicle based on the parking location in the vehicle manifest.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein:

the transporter vehicle communicates with the subject vehicle regarding loading, unloading, or both, wherein the subject vehicle is an autonomous vehicle that personnel summon, via a web app, onto the transporter vehicle to auto-park or to depart the transporter vehicle.

15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

output a notification based upon the subject vehicle entering the transporter vehicle; and

determine the parking location within the transporter vehicle at which the subject vehicle is to park subsequent to entering the transporter vehicle.

16. The system of claim 10 , wherein:

the subject vehicle is configured to be driven onto the transporter vehicle; and

the subject vehicle is configured to provide location data to a cloud-based geo-location tool.

17. The system of claim 10 , further comprising the subject vehicle,

wherein the subject vehicle is periodically pinged for its location after entering the transporter vehicle.

18. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine upon which level the subject vehicle is to park; and

utilize key-off data to determine where the vehicle has parked.

19. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geolocation data includes ignition-on location data indicative of a location of the subject vehicle at ignition-on, and whether the subject vehicle has entered the transporter vehicle is determined based on the ignition-on location data.

20. The method of claim 1 , wherein the geolocation data includes key-off location data indicative of a location of the subject vehicle at key-off, and whether the subject vehicle has entered the transporter vehicle is determined based on the key-off location data.

21. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

comparing weight data of the subject vehicle to a weight sensor value from a weight sensor of the transporter vehicle to identify the subject vehicle has been loaded to the transporter vehicle.

22. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

confirming that the subject vehicle is inside the transporter vehicle based on image data including vehicle identification information received from a camera of the transporter vehicle.
