1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
obtaining, by a computing system comprising one or more computing devices, multi-modal transportation service data associated with a service entity, wherein the multi-modal transportation service data is indicative of one or more multi-modal transportation services associated with one or more aerial transportation legs, wherein each of the one or more multi-modal transportation services comprise at least two transportation legs, each of the at least two transportation legs comprising a respective aerial transportation leg of the one or more aerial transportation legs;
obtaining, by the computing system, one or more aerial vehicle attributes associated with one or more aerial vehicles, wherein the one or more aerial vehicles are associated with an aerial vehicle provider;
determining, by the computing system for the one or more aerial vehicles, predicted aerial vehicle performance data associated with the one or more aerial transportation legs of the one or more multi-modal transportation services based, at least in part, on the multi-modal transportation service data and the one or more vehicle attributes;
generating, by the computing system, an aerial vehicle service request for the aerial vehicle provider based, at least in part, on the predicted aerial vehicle performance data, wherein the aerial vehicle service request comprises a request for at least one of the one or more aerial vehicles associated with the aerial vehicle provider to provide an aerial transportation service for the service entity; and
outputting, by the computing system, data indicative of the aerial vehicle service request for the aerial vehicle provider.
