Abstract

See full text

In an approach to improving road user charging, a computer retrieves one or more zone records and at least a first zone sequence from a computing device associated with a vehicle, where the one or more zone records include one or more distances traveled by the vehicle. The computer calculates a second zone sequence from the retrieved zone records. The computer compares the first zone sequence to the second zone sequence. The computer determines, based, at least in part, on the comparison of the first zone sequence to the second zone sequence, whether the first zone sequence meets a pre-defined threshold of similarity to the second zone sequence. Responsive to determining the first zone sequence does not meet a pre-defined threshold of similarity to the second zone sequence, the computer retrieves raw location data from the computing device. The computer transmits the raw location data to a precise algorithm.
