1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
identifying a set of subjects approaching a set of elevators to generate a set of identities for the set of subjects;
generating a set of initial priority statuses for the set of subjects, each initial priority status generated based on an identity for a subject of the set of subjects;
based on the set of identities and the set of initial priority statuses, determining an elevator dispatch solution for one or more elevators of the set of elevators;
in response to a subset of subjects entering an elevator, updating at least a portion of the initial priority statuses to generate a set of subsequent priority statuses;
determining that at least one identity generated for the subset of subjects is associated with a preset response code;
in response to the determining, adjusting interior settings of the elevator based on the preset response code;
determining an isolation response for a first subject of the subset of subjects;
modifying the elevator dispatch solution based on at least a portion of the set of subsequent priority statuses and the isolation response to generate an isolation dispatch solution; and
causing the elevator to execute the isolation dispatch solution.
 
8. A system, comprising:
one or more processors; and
a computer-readable storage medium, coupled to the one or more processors, storing program instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
identifying a set of subjects approaching a set of elevators to generate a set of identities for the set of subjects;
generating a set of initial priority statuses for the set of subjects, each initial priority status generated based on an identity for a subject of the set of subjects;
based on the set of identities and the set of initial priority statuses, determining an elevator dispatch solution for one or more elevators of the set of elevators;
in response to a subset of subjects entering an elevator, updating at least a portion of the initial priority statuses to generate a set of subsequent priority statuses;
determining that at least one identity generated for the subset of subjects is associated with a preset response code;
in response to the subset of subjects having entered the elevator, adjusting interior settings of the elevator based on the preset response code;
determining an isolation response for a first subject of the subset of subjects;
modifying the elevator dispatch solution based on at least a portion of the set of subsequent priority statuses and the isolation response to generate an isolation dispatch solution; and
causing the at least one elevator to execute the isolation dispatch solution.
