In some embodiments, the user's target vehicle retrieval area can be determined based on the user's position relative to different vehicle retrieval areas. In some embodiments, the vehicle retrieval area may be the same as the vehicle return area. In some embodiments, the above method may further include: in response to the user's operation of using the vehicle, determining the user's current position; if the distance between the user's current position and the non-accumulated vehicle return area is less than the distance between the user's current position and the accumulated vehicle return area, displaying the accumulated vehicle return area. In some embodiments, the user's position can be determined through a user terminal. In some embodiments, if the distance between the accumulated vehicle return area and the user's position is greater than the distance between the non-accumulated vehicle return area, reward information corresponding to retrieving a vehicle from the accumulated vehicle return area is displayed. In some embodiments, the reward value corresponding to the reward information may be proportional to the distance between the user and the accumulated vehicle return area.

[0124] S1220, in response to the user's operation of using or returning the vehicle, displays information on areas where there is no accumulation of returned vehicles.

[0125] S1230, in response to the user's operation of selecting information on areas where vehicles have not been silted up, displays guidance information for the user to go to areas where vehicles have not been silted up from the current location.

[0126] The vehicle management method disclosed herein displays a vehicle return area when a user uses a vehicle. This guides the user to retrieve their vehicle from the vehicle return area, thus resolving the problem of vehicle backlog.

[0127] The following is an illustrative description of the vehicle management method. A user sends a vehicle usage request to the vehicle management server 101 by scanning a QR code on the vehicle using user device 102. The request includes vehicle location information and user location information. The vehicle management server 101 determines a congested parking area within a second preset range from the vehicle or user using either the user's or the vehicle's location information. Based on the distance between the vehicle or user and the congested parking area, the server determines a second reward and sends the reward information to user device 102. After the user retrieves their vehicle from the congested parking area, the vehicle management server 101 receives notification that the retrieval is complete. The vehicle management server 101 acquires the vehicle's location information in real time and determines a return vehicle area within a third preset range from the vehicle's current location as the target return vehicle area. The vehicle management server 101 then inputs at least one of the following into a congestion prediction model: the number of vehicles parked within the target return vehicle area, the target return vehicle area's geographic location information, weather information, current time information, and road condition information. The model prediction result indicates whether the target return vehicle area is congested. If the target return vehicle area is congested, the system sends information about uncongested return vehicle areas to user equipment 102. This information recommends uncongested return vehicle areas within a first preset distance from the target area to the user, and calculates the distance between the target vehicle and these uncongested areas. A first reward is determined based on this distance. The vehicle management server 101 then sends the first reward information to user equipment 102.
