Abstract:
A server communicates with vehicles traveling along a route. The server obtains sensor data indicative of road quality from the vehicles. The server determines that a certain proportion of the vehicles traveling along the route experience better road quality than the remaining vehicles traveling along the route. The server than determines that a first lane in the route has significantly better road quality than a second lane in the route.
Abstract:
Sending communications to contacts on a social networking service includes receiving a target geographical location of a computing device, identifying a vicinity based on the target geographical location, using the vicinity to identify a set of contacts associated with an account on a social networking service, where the set of contacts are used to produce a contact list that excludes one or more contacts that are not associated with locations within the vicinity, and sending a communication to members of the contact list, where the communication relates to the target geographical location.

Abstract:
A system and method for authenticating a log-in request based on location using an authentication application. The authentication application includes a processing unit, a location module, an authentication module, a user interface engine, and a notification module. The processing unit receives a log-in request from a third party application. The processing unit also receives a location of the log-in request and a location of a registered user device. The location module computes a distance between the location of the log-in request and the location of the registered user device. The authentication module determines whether the computed distance exceeds a threshold. The authentication module authenticates the log-in request responsive to determining that the computed distance is within or less than the threshold. The authentication module denies authentication to the log-in request responsive to determining that the computed distance exceeds the threshold.
Abstract:
A system includes: receiving first information about a device, where the first information includes data corresponding to a location of the device and a time at which the device was at the location; identifying one or more images associated with second information that is within a range of the first information, where the second information for an image includes data corresponding to a location at which the image was captured and a time at which the image was captured, and where the location at which the image was captured and a time at which the image was captured are within a range of the location of the device and the time at which the device was at the location; and retrieving the one or more images associated with the second information.
Abstract:
A method, computer program product, and computing system for determining an initial meeting location for a meeting previously-scheduled to be attended by a plurality of attendees at a defined meeting time. A current attendee location is determined for each of the plurality of attendees proximate the defined meeting time, thus defining a plurality of attendee locations. The initial meeting location and one or more of the plurality of attendee locations are compared to determine if the initial meeting location could be changed. If the initial meeting location could be changed, at least one alternative meeting location is suggested.
