[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments in the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The present invention can be used in many general or special computing system environments or configurations, such as personal computers, server computers, handheld or portable devices, tablet devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based systems, set-top boxes, programmable consumer electronic devices, network PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, distributed computing environments including any of the above systems or devices, and the like.

[0024] The present invention may be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions executed by a computer, such as program modules. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc. that perform specific tasks or implement specific abstract data types. The present invention may also be practiced in distributed computing environments where tasks are performed by remote processing devices connected through a communication network. In a distributed computing environment, program modules may be located in local and remote computer storage media, including storage devices. First embodiment

[0025] Reference Figure 1 The present invention provides a method for dispatching a shared vehicle, which includes the following steps.

[0026] S101, receiving a dispatch request for a shared vehicle sent by a mobile terminal.

[0027] Operators deploy shared vehicles in towns for users to use, and operators also have management platforms (servers) for managing shared vehicles. Operators also employ operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles so that shared vehicles can be deployed to where users need them. Operation and maintenance personnel can send dispatch requests for shared vehicles to the server through mobile terminals (such as mobile phones, handheld devices, etc.). For example: Operation and maintenance personnel can scan the code of a shared vehicle through a mobile terminal to initiate a dispatch request for the shared vehicle; Operation and maintenance personnel can also open an application through a mobile terminal and select a shared vehicle in the application to initiate a dispatch request for the shared vehicle.

[0028] That is to say, when the operation and maintenance personnel are carrying out dispatching work, if there is a shared vehicle in front of them, they can initiate a dispatching request for the shared vehicle through a mobile terminal.

[0029] S102, determining the assigned parking spot of the shared vehicle, if the assigned parking spot is a pull-in spot, displaying the pull-in spot and the corresponding recommended number of pull-ins in an application of the mobile terminal.

[0030] After the server receives the dispatch request for the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal, it will determine the shared vehicle’s assigned parking point. If the assigned parking point is a pull-in point, the pull-in point and the corresponding recommended number of pull-ins will be displayed in the mobile terminal’s application. There are three situations for the location of a shared vehicle: 1) There is an assigned parking point and the parking point is a pull-in point (if the pull-in point is a combination of several parking points, the parking point belongs to the pull-in point), 2) There is an assigned parking point and the parking point is not a pull-in point, 3) There is no assigned parking point, that is, the shared vehicle is not at the parking point. If the assigned parking point is a pull-in point, the pull-in point and the corresponding recommended number of pull-ins will be displayed in the mobile terminal’s application. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the parking point is the pull-in point, specifically "Wanda Plaza West", and the recommended number of pull-ins is 3, and the maximum number of pull-ins is 4. Then, after the operation and maintenance personnel select a shared vehicle to be dispatched at this pull-in point, they can continue to select 2 shared vehicles for dispatch, and can continue to select up to 3 shared vehicles for dispatch.

[0031] S103, displaying at least one recommended vehicle deployment point and a corresponding recommended number of vehicles deployed in the application.

[0032] S104, receiving the target vehicle delivery point selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended vehicle delivery points, and establishing a dispatch list.

[0033] The application not only displays the pull-in point and the corresponding recommended number of pull-in vehicles, but also displays at least one recommended drop-in point and the corresponding recommended number of drop-in vehicles. Figure 2As shown in the figure, the lower part of the application lists two recommended vehicle deployment points for the operation and maintenance personnel to choose from, with the specific location of the recommended vehicle deployment point and the recommended number of vehicles to be deployed. The operation and maintenance personnel can select a suitable target vehicle deployment point based on the specific location of the recommended vehicle deployment point and the recommended number of vehicles to be deployed. After the server receives the target vehicle deployment point selected by the operation and maintenance personnel, it creates a dispatch order. Figure 2 A button "Accept Order" is also displayed to confirm the dispatch. The operation and maintenance personnel can click this button to create a dispatch order. In other variations, this button for confirming the dispatch may not be set. In this case, the operation and maintenance personnel are allowed to dispatch the shared vehicle at the pull-in point to the target vehicle drop-off point.

[0034] Among them, the recommended number of vehicles for the recommended vehicle deployment point displayed in the application is generally a vehicle deployment point with a similar number of vehicles recommended for the target vehicle pulling point. The recommended vehicle deployment point is a vehicle deployment point that is relatively close to the target vehicle pulling point to facilitate scheduling by operation and maintenance personnel.

[0035] S105, receiving a request for ending scheduling of the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal.

[0036] S106, determine the location of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle is located in the target vehicle delivery point, complete the dispatch request; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target vehicle delivery point, send a prompt message to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not in the target vehicle delivery point.

[0037] Receiving the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal, specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel can scan the code of the shared vehicle through the mobile terminal to send the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle to the server, or input the vehicle code through the mobile terminal to send the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle to the server. After the server receives the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle from the mobile terminal, it is also necessary to determine the location of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle is located in the target vehicle delivery point, the dispatch request is completed; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target vehicle delivery point, a prompt message is sent to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not at the target vehicle delivery point, so as to prompt the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch the shared vehicle to the target vehicle delivery point.

[0038] In this embodiment, the operation and maintenance personnel can directly initiate a dispatch request for the shared vehicle in front of them, and the server will determine whether the shared vehicle can be dispatched (determine whether it is at the pickup point). If the shared vehicle can be dispatched (at the pickup point), then the pickup point is recommended and a dispatch order is directly established. If the shared vehicle cannot be dispatched (not at the pickup point), then the pickup point can be recommended, and the operation and maintenance personnel can dispatch the shared vehicle at the pickup point. This dispatch method simplifies the dispatch logic, does not require much education and learning costs, is easy for operation and maintenance personnel to get started, and can quickly and effectively guide operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles.

[0039] As mentioned above, the parking spot of the shared vehicle is determined. If the parking spot is a pick-up spot, the pick-up spot and the recommended number of pick-ups are displayed in the application. If the parking spot is not a pick-up spot, the operation and maintenance personnel can be prompted to dispatch the shared vehicle to the pick-up spot.

[0040] In other variations, if the assigned parking spot is a non-parking spot, the non-parking spot and the corresponding number of long-term idle vehicles are displayed in the mobile terminal application. Long-term idle vehicles refer to shared vehicles that have not been used by users for a long time. For example, a shared vehicle that has not been used by a user for 7 consecutive days can be marked as a long-term idle vehicle. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, there are 3 long-term idle vehicles. Such shared vehicles should be dispatched as soon as possible so that users can use them and generate value; at this time, even if the assigned parking point is not a pull-in point, the operation and maintenance personnel can dispatch the vehicles at the assigned parking point, and the objects of dispatch are long-term idle vehicles. Specifically, the number of vehicles dispatched by the operation and maintenance personnel at the assigned parking point is the number of long-term idle vehicles at the assigned parking point. In addition, long-term idle shared vehicles may also mean that the vehicle is faulty, which needs to be highlighted to the operation and maintenance personnel so that they can troubleshoot.

[0041] If the assigned parking spot is not a parking spot for pulling a car, and there is no long-term idle vehicle at the assigned parking spot, a prompt message will be sent to the operation and maintenance personnel to remind them that it is not recommended to dispatch a shared vehicle at the assigned parking spot. Figure 3 As shown, a prompt message "It is not recommended to pull the car at this parking spot" is sent to the operation and maintenance personnel. After receiving the prompt message, the operation and maintenance personnel can change a parking spot to dispatch the shared vehicle.

[0042] As mentioned above, determine the parking spot of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle has no parking spot, at least one recommended parking spot is displayed in the application, and the target parking spot selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended parking spots is received, and a dispatch list is established. The shared vehicle has no parking spot, which means that the shared vehicle is not at the parking spot, which means that the shared vehicle is illegally parked (not parked in the parking spot as required by the operator). At this time, the operation and maintenance personnel are required to dispatch the shared vehicle. Therefore, the parking spot is recommended to the operation and maintenance personnel, and a dispatch list is established after the operation and maintenance personnel selects the target parking spot. This allows the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch the shared vehicle that has no parking spot to the target parking spot.

[0043] As mentioned above, the assigned parking point of the shared vehicle is determined. If the assigned parking point is a pull-in point, the recommended drop-in point and the recommended number of drop-in points are displayed in the application. In other variations, the operation and maintenance personnel can also select a self-selected drop-in point in the application. When the server receives the self-selected drop-in point selected by the operation and maintenance personnel, it will create a dispatch order with the self-selected drop-in point as the target drop-in point. Figure 2As shown in the figure, the "self-selected vehicle deployment point" button is displayed on the right side of the "recommended vehicle deployment point" in the application, and the operation and maintenance personnel can select the appropriate self-selected vehicle deployment point for dispatching. Especially when the recommended vehicle deployment point is not displayed in the application or the recommended vehicle deployment point displayed is too far away from the operation and maintenance personnel. By setting the "self-selected vehicle deployment point", the dispatching logic is further simplified, and the operation and maintenance personnel can quickly complete the dispatching and improve the dispatching efficiency.

[0044] In this embodiment, after the dispatch list is created according to the assigned parking point and the target vehicle delivery point, an electronic dispatch map is also displayed in the application, and the electronic dispatch map includes the location of the assigned parking point and the location of the target vehicle delivery point. Figure 4 As shown, the electronic dispatch map shows the location of the assigned parking point and the target vehicle delivery point respectively. The operation and maintenance personnel can know the location of the target vehicle delivery point relative to the assigned parking point and the approximate distance between the target vehicle delivery point and the assigned parking point, which further facilitates the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles.

[0045] In this embodiment, after the dispatch list is established, the process further includes: marking the vehicle pulling point in the application program to distinguish it from other vehicle pulling points, and marking the target vehicle delivery point to distinguish it from other target vehicle delivery points.

[0046] When operators hire operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles, there are situations where multiple operation and maintenance personnel dispatch at the same time, which may cause multiple operation and maintenance personnel to select the same target vehicle delivery point at the same time, causing the operation and maintenance personnel to deliver all shared vehicles to the same target vehicle delivery point, making the number of target vehicle delivery points far exceed the set number, wasting dispatch resources. Therefore, after the operation and maintenance personnel select a target vehicle delivery point for dispatch, they can distinguish other unselected vehicle delivery points by marking them in the application. At this time, other operation and maintenance personnel can know that the marked vehicle delivery point has been dispatched by relevant personnel, and will not select this vehicle delivery point as the target vehicle delivery point, and will not waste dispatch resources.

[0047] Similarly, marking the pick-up points can also prevent multiple operation and maintenance personnel from dispatching shared vehicles at the same pick-up point, resulting in too few shared vehicles at the pick-up point to meet users' riding needs.

[0048] In this embodiment, if the assigned parking spot is a pull-in spot, the current inventory of the assigned parking spot is also displayed in the application. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the assigned parking spot is a pull-in spot and the current inventory is 12 shared vehicles. Displaying the current inventory can further facilitate the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles, especially when there are many shared vehicles to be dispatched. For example, if the current inventory of the assigned parking spot is 12 shared vehicles and 10 shared vehicles need to be dispatched, the operation and maintenance personnel only need to leave 2 shared vehicles at the assigned parking spot.

[0049] In this embodiment, the application also displays the recommended completion time of pulling the car at the assigned parking spot. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the application also displays the recommended completion time for pulling a car, which is specifically "available for pulling within 30 minutes after receiving the order". The recommended completion time for pulling a car means that the pulling of a car at the pulling point must be completed within the specified time. The pulling point and the number of pulled cars are predicted based on the user's riding demand within the future set time. If the set time is exceeded, the number of pulled cars may change, or even the nature of the pulling point may change (become a drop-in point or a normal parking point). Therefore, it is necessary to configure the recommended completion time for pulling a car, and displaying the recommended completion time for pulling a car in the application can remind the operation and maintenance personnel to pay attention.

[0050] The application also displays the recommended delivery completion time for the recommended delivery point. Figure 4 As shown, the application also displays the recommended completion time for the vehicle deployment, which is "09-12 before 12:00". The recommended completion time for the vehicle deployment means that the recommended deployment point must be completed within the specified time. The recommended deployment point and the number of vehicles deployed are predicted based on the user's riding demand within the future set time. If the set time is exceeded, the number of vehicles deployed may change, or even the nature of the recommended deployment point may change (become a pull-in point or a normal parking point). Therefore, it is necessary to configure the recommended completion time for the vehicle deployment, and displaying the recommended completion time for the vehicle deployment in the application can remind the operation and maintenance personnel to pay attention.

[0051] In this embodiment, the pulling point has a recommended number of pulling vehicles, and the target delivery point has a recommended number of delivery vehicles. When the mobile terminal dispatches shared vehicles, if the number of shared vehicles exceeds the recommended number of pulling vehicles, a prompt message indicating that no scheduling is required is displayed in the application; or, if the number of shared vehicles exceeds the recommended number of delivery vehicles, a prompt message indicating that no scheduling is required is displayed in the application. This is because the operation and maintenance personnel have determined the recommended number of delivery vehicles for the target delivery point and the recommended number of delivery vehicles for the pulling point. The shared vehicles dispatched by the operation and maintenance personnel should not exceed the recommended number of delivery vehicles, otherwise it will lead to excessive delivery of vehicles and waste of dispatching resources. The shared vehicles dispatched by the operation and maintenance personnel should not exceed the recommended number of delivery vehicles, otherwise the user will have no vehicles available at the pulling point.

[0052] In this embodiment, after receiving the dispatch request for the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal, it also includes: configuring the maximum single-trip capacity of the dispatch in the application. The dispatch of shared vehicles requires the use of vehicles (such as trucks, tricycles, etc.) to transfer the shared vehicles from the pulling point to the vehicle delivery point. The maximum single-trip capacity of the truck is not the same as the maximum single-trip capacity of the tricycle. For example, the maximum single-trip capacity of the truck is 20 shared vehicles, and the maximum single-trip capacity of the tricycle is 8 shared vehicles. If the configured maximum single-trip capacity is 20 shared vehicles, then the recommended delivery point with a number of vehicles below 20 shared vehicles can be recommended; if the configured maximum single-trip capacity is 8 shared vehicles, then the recommended delivery point with a number of vehicles below 8 shared vehicles can be recommended; in this way, it can help the operation and maintenance personnel delete unnecessary impurity information and further effectively guide the operation and maintenance personnel to perform dispatch.

[0053] Specifically, the dispatch threshold based on the maximum single-trip capacity can be specifically configured. For example, if the configured maximum single-trip capacity is 8 shared vehicles, the dispatch threshold can be set to 12 vehicles, that is, the deployment point with a deployment number of less than 12 shared vehicles can be recommended.

[0054] Reference Figure 5 The present invention provides a shared vehicle server, comprising: a receiving unit, the receiving unit is used to receive a dispatch request for a shared vehicle sent by a mobile terminal; a judging unit, the judging unit is used to judge the assigned parking point of the shared vehicle, if the assigned parking point is a pulling point, then display the pulling point and the corresponding recommended number of pulling vehicles in the application of the mobile terminal; a sending unit, the sending unit is used to display at least one recommended delivery point and the corresponding recommended number of delivery vehicles in the application; the receiving unit is also used to receive a target delivery point selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended delivery points, and establish a dispatch list; the receiving unit is also used to receive a request from the mobile terminal to end the dispatch of the shared vehicle; the judging unit is also used to judge the position of the shared vehicle, if the shared vehicle is located in the target delivery point, complete the dispatch request; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target delivery point, the receiving unit is also used to send a prompt message to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not at the target delivery point. Second embodiment

[0055] Reference Figure 6 The present invention provides a method for dispatching a shared vehicle, which includes the following steps.

[0056] S201, receiving a scheduling request for a shared vehicle sent by a mobile terminal.

[0057] The operation and maintenance personnel can send a scheduling request to the server through a mobile terminal (such as a mobile phone, a handheld device, etc.). Specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel can open an application such as an APP provided by the operator through the mobile terminal to send a scheduling request to the server. The operation and maintenance personnel can also click a scheduling button in the application such as an APP provided by the operator to send a scheduling request to the server.

[0058] S202, displaying a cart pulling map in an application of the mobile terminal, where the cart pulling map includes at least one recommended cart pulling point and a corresponding recommended number of carts to be pulled.

[0059] After receiving the dispatch request, the server displays a hauling map in the application. The hauling map includes recommended hauling points and the corresponding recommended hauling numbers. Figure 2 After the operation and maintenance personnel initiate a dispatch request for a shared vehicle through a mobile terminal, Figure 2 The pulling map is displayed in the application, which includes recommended pulling points, recommended number of pullings, etc. Specifically, the recommended pulling points can be recommended based on the current location of the operation and maintenance personnel. The recommended pulling points are the pulling points that are closer to the operation and maintenance personnel, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can select the pulling points for this scheduling task.

[0060] S203: receiving a target towing point selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended towing points.

[0061] S204, displaying at least one recommended vehicle deployment point and a corresponding recommended number of vehicles deployed in the application.

[0062] S205, receiving the target vehicle delivery point selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended vehicle delivery points, and establishing a dispatch list.

[0063] When the operator selects one of the recommended pickup points in the pickup map as the target pickup point, at least one recommended pickup point and the corresponding recommended number of pickups are displayed in the application. Figure 2 After the operation and maintenance personnel select "Wanda Plaza West" as the target vehicle pickup point, two recommended vehicle pickup points and the corresponding recommended number of vehicles are displayed in the application. The operation and maintenance personnel can obtain more recommended vehicle pickup points by pulling up. Figure 2 A button "accept order" for confirming the dispatch is also shown, and the operation and maintenance personnel can click this button to create a dispatch order. In other variations, this button for confirming the dispatch may not be set.

[0064] Among them, the recommended number of vehicles for the recommended vehicle deployment point displayed in the application is generally a vehicle deployment point with a similar number of vehicles recommended for the target vehicle pulling point. The recommended vehicle deployment point is a vehicle deployment point that is relatively close to the target vehicle pulling point to facilitate scheduling by operation and maintenance personnel.

[0065] S206, receiving a request for ending scheduling of the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal.

[0066] S207, determine the location of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle is located in the target vehicle delivery point, complete the dispatch request; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target vehicle delivery point, send a prompt message to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not in the target vehicle delivery point.

[0067] Receiving the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal, specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel can scan the code of the shared vehicle through the mobile terminal to send the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle to the server, or input the vehicle code through the mobile terminal to send the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle to the server. After the server receives the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle from the mobile terminal, it is also necessary to determine the location of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle is located in the target vehicle delivery point, the dispatch request is completed; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target vehicle delivery point, a prompt message is sent to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not at the target vehicle delivery point, so as to prompt the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch the shared vehicle to the target vehicle delivery point.

[0068] Furthermore, the server also receives a request for starting to dispatch a shared vehicle from a mobile terminal. Specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel may scan a code of a shared vehicle through a mobile terminal to send a request for starting to dispatch a shared vehicle to the server. After receiving the request for starting to dispatch a shared vehicle from a mobile terminal, the location of the shared vehicle needs to be determined. If the shared vehicle is located within the target vehicle pulling point, it means that the shared vehicle can be dispatched; if the shared vehicle is not within the target vehicle pulling point, it means that the shared vehicle cannot be dispatched, and a prompt message indicating that the shared vehicle cannot be dispatched is displayed in the application.

[0069] In this embodiment, the operation and maintenance personnel initiate a dispatch request. The system first recommends the recommended pull-in points nearby to the operation and maintenance personnel. The operation and maintenance personnel select the target pull-in point based on the location of the recommended pull-in point and the recommended number of pull-in vehicles. The system then recommends the recommended drop-in points near the target pull-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel. The operation and maintenance personnel select the target drop-in point based on the location of the recommended drop-in point and the recommended number of drop-in vehicles, and establish a dispatch order. This dispatch method simplifies the dispatch logic, does not require much education and learning costs, is easy for the operation and maintenance personnel to get started, and can quickly and effectively guide the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles.

[0070] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: in the first embodiment, the operation and maintenance personnel directly select the pull-in point by selecting the shared vehicle, and the system recommends the vehicle drop-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel based on the selected pull-in point and establishes a dispatch list; in this embodiment, the system first recommends the pull-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel, and after the operation and maintenance personnel select the target pull-in point, the system recommends the vehicle drop-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel based on the selected target pull-in point and establishes a dispatch list. The additional technical features in the first embodiment can all be used in this embodiment and will not be repeated. Third embodiment

[0071] Reference Figure 7 The present invention provides a method for dispatching a shared vehicle, which includes the following steps.

[0072] S301, receiving a scheduling request for a shared vehicle sent by a mobile terminal.

[0073] The operation and maintenance personnel can send a scheduling request to the server through a mobile terminal (such as a mobile phone, a handheld device, etc.). Specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel can open an application such as an APP provided by the operator through the mobile terminal to send a scheduling request to the server. The operation and maintenance personnel can also click a scheduling button in the application such as an APP provided by the operator to send a scheduling request to the server.

[0074] S302, displaying a vehicle deployment map in an application of the mobile terminal, where the vehicle deployment map includes at least one recommended vehicle deployment point and a corresponding recommended number of vehicles deployed.

[0075] After receiving the dispatch request, the server displays a vehicle deployment map in the application, which includes recommended deployment points and the corresponding recommended number of deployment points. Specifically, the recommended deployment points can be recommended based on the current location of the operation and maintenance personnel. The recommended deployment points are deployment points that are closer to the operation and maintenance personnel, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can select the deployment points for this dispatch task.

[0076] S303, receiving a target vehicle delivery point selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended vehicle delivery points.

[0077] S304, displaying at least one recommended pulling point and a corresponding recommended pulling number in the application.

[0078] S305, receiving the target towing point selected by the mobile terminal from the recommended towing points, and establishing a dispatch list.

[0079] After the operation and maintenance personnel select one of the recommended vehicle deployment points in the vehicle deployment map as the target vehicle deployment point, at least one recommended vehicle pulling point and the corresponding recommended vehicle pulling number are displayed in the application. The operation and maintenance personnel can select one of the recommended vehicle pulling points to create a dispatch list. Among them, the recommended vehicle pulling number of the recommended vehicle pulling point displayed in the application is generally a vehicle pulling point with a similar recommended vehicle pulling number to the target vehicle deployment point. The recommended vehicle pulling point is a vehicle pulling point that is relatively close to the target vehicle deployment point, so as to facilitate the operation and maintenance personnel to perform dispatch.

[0080] S306: Receive a request for ending scheduling of the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal.

[0081] S307, determine the location of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle is located in the target vehicle delivery point, complete the dispatch request; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target vehicle delivery point, send a prompt message to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not in the target vehicle delivery point.

[0082] Receiving the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle sent by the mobile terminal, specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel can scan the code of the shared vehicle through the mobile terminal to send the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle to the server, or input the vehicle code through the mobile terminal to send the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle to the server. After the server receives the end dispatch request for the shared vehicle from the mobile terminal, it is also necessary to determine the location of the shared vehicle. If the shared vehicle is located in the target vehicle delivery point, the dispatch request is completed; if the shared vehicle is not located in the target vehicle delivery point, a prompt message is sent to the mobile terminal that the shared vehicle is not at the target vehicle delivery point, so as to prompt the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch the shared vehicle to the target vehicle delivery point.

[0083] Furthermore, the server also receives a request for starting to dispatch a shared vehicle from a mobile terminal. Specifically, the operation and maintenance personnel may scan a code of a shared vehicle through a mobile terminal to send a request for starting to dispatch a shared vehicle to the server. After receiving the request for starting to dispatch a shared vehicle from a mobile terminal, the location of the shared vehicle needs to be determined. If the shared vehicle is located within the target vehicle pulling point, it means that the shared vehicle can be dispatched; if the shared vehicle is not within the target vehicle pulling point, it means that the shared vehicle cannot be dispatched, and a prompt message indicating that the shared vehicle cannot be dispatched is displayed in the application.

[0084] In this embodiment, the operation and maintenance personnel initiate a dispatch request. The system first recommends the recommended vehicle delivery points nearby to the operation and maintenance personnel. The operation and maintenance personnel select the target vehicle delivery point based on the location of the recommended vehicle delivery point and the recommended number of vehicles to be delivered. The system then recommends the recommended vehicle pulling points near the target vehicle delivery point to the operation and maintenance personnel. The operation and maintenance personnel select the target vehicle pulling point based on the location of the recommended vehicle pulling point and the recommended number of vehicles to be pulled, and establish a dispatch order. This dispatch method simplifies the dispatch logic, does not require much education and learning costs, is easy for the operation and maintenance personnel to get started, and can quickly and effectively guide the operation and maintenance personnel to dispatch shared vehicles.

[0085] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: in the first embodiment, the operation and maintenance personnel directly select the pull-in point by selecting the shared vehicle, and the system recommends the vehicle drop-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel based on the selected pull-in point and establishes a dispatch list; in this embodiment, the system first recommends the vehicle drop-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel, and after the operation and maintenance personnel select the target vehicle drop-in point, the system recommends the vehicle pull-in point to the operation and maintenance personnel based on the selected target vehicle drop-in point and establishes a dispatch list. The additional technical features in the first embodiment can all be used in this embodiment and will not be repeated.
