Patent attributes
A system described herein comprises a database of transporter profiles, a database of shipping package profiles, a control circuit, a geolocation device, and a physical kiosk. The transporter profiles comprise scheduled travel events associated therewith, and the transporter profiles being associated with transporters. The shipping packages comprises scheduled shipping events. The control circuit is operable to identify one or more suggested shipping packages for a transporter, based in part, on comparisons between the one or more scheduled travel events of a transporter profile associated with the transporter and the one or more scheduled shipping events of the shipping packages. The geolocation device is operable to calculate in real-time an absolute position of a transporter computing device associated with the transporter and estimate time of arrival of the transporter at a transport terminal. The physical kiosk delivers the suggested shipping packages prior to the transporter arriving at the transport terminal.
