TI06: Dynamic Ridesharing

Covers both implementations for dynamic carpooling and Uber/Lift-style ridesharing. The algorithms seem to be about the same, with a financial transaction overlay, which might be mandatory in a commercial pay-to-ride service and optional in a carpool service where users may venmo each other optional micro-payments.

Reduce vehicle miles traveled per capita by X percent by year Y. Average VMT per capita per day, per week, or per year.

 
Since the mapping between objectives and service packages is not always straight-forward and often situation-dependent, these mappings should only be used as a starting point. Users should do their own analysis to identify the best service packages for their region.
