1. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more non-transitory computer readable media having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving, at the system, from an autonomous vehicle remote from the system:
video data comprising video frame data, wherein the video frame data is indicative of an environment in which the vehicle is currently located or was previously located;
causing a display associated with a remote operator to output a representation of the video frame data;
receiving or determining, at the system, additional data associated with at least one of the vehicle or the environment;
determining a time difference associated with transmission of the video frame data from the autonomous vehicle to the system;
determining, based at least in part on the additional data and the time difference associated with the video frame data, a reliability metric, the reliability metric being indicative of how reliable the video frame data is at representing an environment in which the vehicle is located at a current time; and
causing the output on the display to be based at least in part on the reliability metric.
