Automatic alternate transportation

Abstract

An example operation includes one or more of determining, by a server, that a transport is inoperable on a route, instructing, by the server, an alternate transport to navigate to the transport, configuring, by the server, the alternate transport based on a configuration of the transport and routing, by the server, the configured alternate transport to an intended destination of the transport.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method, comprising:
 determining, by a server, that a transport is inoperable on a route;   instructing, by the server, an alternate transport to navigate to the transport;   configuring, by the server, the alternate transport based on a configuration of the transport; and   routing, by the server, the configured alternate transport to an intended destination of the transport.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the routing comprises transferring, by the server, the routing of the intended destination of the transport to the alternate transport. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the configured alternate transport and the transport are on a same or similar navigational path. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the configuring comprises configuring a parameter of the alternate transport from a group of parameters consisting of seat position, seat temperature, seat location, an infotainment option, ambient temperature, a number of predetermined stops prior to the intended destination, the transport type, a make of the transport, a model of the transport, a year of the transport, number of miles driven by the transport, condition of the transport, and maintenance associated with a transport. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 determining, by the server, a transport location of the transport;   determining, by the server, an alternate transport location of the alternate transport;   determining, by the server, an estimated time of arrival of the alternate transport to the transport location based on the transport location and the alternate transport location; and   providing, by the server to the transport, the estimated time of arrival of the alternate transport.   
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , further comprising providing, via a graphical user interface within the transport:
 the estimated time of arrival of the alternate transport;   options including the alternate transport and an additional transport;   alternate transport parameter information related to parameters of the alternate transport; and   additional transport parameter information related to parameters of the additional transport.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 receiving, by the server, a message of an initial configuration of the transport; and   receiving, by the server, a second message of a change in the initial configuration of the transport,   wherein said configuring, by the server, the alternate transport based on the configuration of the transport comprises configuring the alternate transport based on the initial configuration and the change in the initial configuration.   
     
     
         8 . A server, comprising:
 a processor; and   a memory;   wherein the processor is configured to:   determine that a transport is inoperable on a route;   instruct an alternate transport to navigate to the transport;   configure the alternate transport based on a configuration of the transport; and   route the configured alternate transport to an intended destination of the transport.   
     
     
         9 . The server of  claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to transfer the route of the intended destination of the transport to the alternate transport. 
     
     
         10 . The server of  claim 8 , wherein the configured alternate transport and the transport are on a same or similar navigational path. 
     
     
         11 . The server of  claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to configure a parameter of the alternate transport from a group of parameters consisting of seat position, seat temperature, seat location, an infotainment option, ambient temperature, a number of predetermined stops prior to the intended destination, the transport type, a make of the transport, a model of the transport, a year of the transport, number of miles driven by the transport, condition of the transport, and maintenance associated with a transport. 
     
     
         12 . The server of  claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to:
 determine a transport location of the transport;   determine an alternate transport location of the alternate transport;   determine an estimated time of arrival of the alternate transport to the transport location based on the transport location and the alternate transport location; and   provide, to the transport, the estimated time of arrival of the alternate transport.   
     
     
         13 . The server of  claim 12 , wherein the processor is configured to provide, via a graphical user interface within the transport:
 the estimated time of arrival of the alternate transport;   options including the alternate transport and an additional transport;   alternate transport parameter information related to parameters of the alternate transport; and   additional transport parameter information related to parameters of the additional transport.   
     
     
         14 . The server of  claim 8 , wherein the processor is configured to:
 receive a message of an initial configuration of the transport;   receive a second message of a change in the initial configuration of the transport; and   configure the alternate transport based on the initial configuration and the change in the initial configuration.   
     
     
         15 . A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to:
 determine that a transport is inoperable on a route;   instruct an alternate transport to navigate to the transport;   configure the alternate transport based on a configuration of the transport; and   route the configured alternate transport to an intended destination of the transport.   
     
     
         16 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 15 , further comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to rout by transferring, by the server, the routing of the intended destination of the transport to the alternate transport. 
     
     
         17 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 15 , wherein the configured alternate transport and the transport are on a same navigational path.
