Patent attributes
A vehicle information service implemented on one or more computers of a service provider network implements a first application programmatic interface (API) that allows a client to define inclusion parameters and a sample size for a fleet of vehicles from which vehicle data is to be collected. The vehicle information service also implements a second API that notifies the client when the requested vehicle data has been collected from the vehicle fleet. Additionally, the vehicle information service provides the client access to the collected vehicle data. The vehicle information service manages the collection of the vehicle data from the client defined vehicle fleet without requiring further client involvement and notifies the client when the collection of the vehicle data is complete.
