The meeting place presentation system of the present embodiment is a system that performs processing for providing a place suitable for meeting a vehicle occupant and a pedestrian, on the basis of probe information uploaded from a plurality of vehicles. It is. Specifically, the meeting place presentation system searches for information on opening and closing of the vehicle door, and provides a corresponding position as a meeting place. Thereby, since it is possible to propose a place where there is a high possibility that the meeting has actually been performed in the past, it is possible to provide useful information to at least one of the vehicle occupant and the pedestrian. The meeting place of the vehicle occupant and the vehicle occupant may be presented.

(Constitution)
As shown in FIG. 1, the meeting place presentation system according to the present embodiment includes a meeting place presentation apparatus 102, a place information notification apparatus 100, and an in-vehicle probe information providing apparatus 101. The meeting place presentation device 102 is configured by a server.
The in-vehicle probe information providing apparatus 101 is mounted on the vehicles 101-1 to 101-5 and transmits (uploads) vehicle information (referred to as probe information) to the meeting place presentation apparatus 102 at preset time intervals or irregularly. To do. The probe information includes the ID of the vehicle (identification information of the vehicle or the probe information providing apparatus 101), vehicle state information, vehicle position information, and time information. The vehicle state information includes door state information (information on whether the door is open or closed).

  The communication means (communication method) between the in-vehicle probe information providing apparatus 101 and the meeting place presentation apparatus 102 is not particularly limited. Transmission / reception may be performed by transmitting (uploading) probe information in real time from a vehicle using wireless communication, or by recording the probe information in a medium and uploading it later to the probe database 303 of the meeting place presentation device 102. good.

  The meeting place presentation device 102 accepts request information RQ (request signal) including a designated position to wait for from the place information notification device 100. Upon receiving the request information RQ, the meeting place presentation device 102 extracts, from the probe database 303, a place where the number of vehicles whose doors are opened in the vicinity of the designated position is equal to or more than a preset number as a meeting place. And the meeting place presentation apparatus 102 proposes a meeting place by transmitting the extracted information on the meeting place to the requesting place information notification apparatus 100. The information on the meeting place may be position information or a place name such as a facility serving as a landmark.

As shown in FIG. 2, the meeting place presentation device 102 includes a probe information storage unit 300, a request reception unit 301, a meeting place extraction unit 302, an information transmission unit 305, a probe database 303, and a map database 304.
The probe information storage unit 300 acquires probe information individually transmitted by the in-vehicle probe information providing apparatus 101 mounted on a plurality of vehicles, and stores the probe information in the probe database 303. As described above, the probe information includes vehicle position information and vehicle door opening / closing information.
The request receiving unit 301 receives request information RQ including information on a designated position.
When receiving the request information RQ, the meeting place extraction unit 302 refers to the probe information in the probe database 303 and extracts the meeting place from the information on the designated position included in the request information RQ.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the meeting place extraction unit 302 according to the present embodiment includes a reference position specifying unit 302A, a search range specifying unit 302B, and a place determining unit 302C. The reference position specifying unit 302A performs processing for specifying the reference position from the information on the designated position included in the request information RQ. The reference position is a position that serves as a reference when determining the periphery of the designated position. The search range specifying unit 302B performs processing for determining a search target range based on a search range condition set in advance with the specified reference position as a reference. The place determination unit 302C performs processing for determining a meeting place based on the position information of the vehicle where the door is opened and closed within the search target range. The place determination unit 302C according to the present embodiment sets a place where the number of vehicles whose doors are opened and closed is equal to or more than a preset number as a candidate for a waiting place.

Further, the information transmission unit 305 transmits the information on the meeting place extracted by the meeting place extraction unit 302 as presentation information to the requested location information notification device 100 (the request source that transmitted the request information RQ).
FIG. 4 is an example of the data structure of probe information stored in the probe database 303. In the example illustrated in FIG. 4, the probe information data includes items “id”, “time_stamp”, “lat”, “lon”, and “door”. The item “id” stores vehicle ID information. The item “time_stamp” stores time information. The item “lat” stores latitude information. The item “lon” stores longitude information. The item “door” stores door opening / closing information. Although not shown, other vehicle state information is also stored as needed.

  The location information notification device 100 is mounted as at least one of a hardware configuration and a software configuration on a device that can be used by a user. As a device on which the location information notification device 100 is mounted, for example, a mobile terminal 104 such as a mobile phone, a personal computer 105, and a vehicle 106 including a communication device can be illustrated as shown in FIG. The location information notification device 100 includes a request information transmission unit and a request information transmission unit. The request information transmission unit transmits request information (request signal) including information on the input designated position to the meeting place presentation device 102 according to the user's input operation. The request information transmission unit notifies the user by displaying the presentation information received from the meeting place presentation device 102 on the display unit. For example, the position of the meeting place included in the presentation information is displayed superimposed on the map data around the designated position.

The meeting place presentation device 102 composed of the server will be further described (see FIG. 2).
The request receiving unit 301 receives request information RQ including information on a designated position.
The information on the designated position is information on a position where the user's meeting place information is desired. The information on the designated position is, for example, information specified at a POI (Point of Interest) location such as “XX Station South Exit”, “△△ Zoo”, “□□ Co., Ltd.”, latitude / longitude, etc. It is position information specified by the position itself. The facility designated by the POI is a facility with a characteristic that can serve as a landmark.

When the acquired information on the designated position is the position information itself such as latitude and longitude, the reference position specifying unit 302A sets the position as the reference position. When “ΔΔ zoo” or the like is acquired, the map database 304 or the like is referred to, and the position (for example, the entrance to the park or the central location of the place) is obtained as the reference position.
The search range specifying unit 302B determines a search target range based on a preset search range condition with reference to the reference position specified by the reference position specifying unit 302A. The search range specifying unit 302B determines, as the specified search range condition, for example, an area centered on the reference position and having a radius set in advance (for example, a radius of 500 m) as the search target range.

However, when an area-like search condition is included in the received request information RQ, the search condition is prioritized and the search target range is specified by the search condition.
Examples of search conditions included in the request information RQ include search conditions related to areas such as a distance range, search conditions related to a time range, and search conditions related to the number of hits at a meeting place.

  The search condition regarding the area is, for example, a distance condition. The distance condition is, for example, a condition such as “within a radius of 1 km (from the XX station south exit)” or “within a 10-minute walk from (ΔΔ zoo)” together with the information on the designated position. When it is set to 10 minutes on foot, the set time is converted into a distance based on a preset conversion condition to specify a search target range. In addition, the search condition regarding the area may be a directional condition. For example, “Only south side from XX station south exit”. In this case, for example, only the south side with the track as the boundary is set as the search target range.

  Search conditions related to the time range are, for example, a specific time zone of the day such as “time zone from 18:00 to 21:00 (in the XX station south exit)” or a specific time zone such as “holiday △ Δ zoo”. The date is specified. The date of “holiday △ Δ zoo” can be specified, for example, by referring to a facility information database (not shown). If it cannot be identified, a message to that effect is sent to the requester.

The search condition regarding the number of hits at the meeting place is set to, for example, “10 (in descending order of frequency of meeting)”.
Further, a search condition for the extraction priority may be set as the search condition. The priority search condition is, for example, the order in which the distance is close to the reference position or the order in which the number of opened and closed vehicles is large.

Search conditions other than the search conditions related to the place are used when determining the waiting candidate in the process of the place determination unit 302C.
The location determination unit 302C extracts from the probe information in the probe database 303 the probe information of the vehicle whose door has been opened and closed within the specified search target range. At this time, if there is a search condition related to the temporal range, probe information that also satisfies the search condition is extracted. The probe information of the vehicle whose door has been opened / closed has the item “door” of the probe information immediately before in the same vehicle (same id) as “closed”, and the target probe information item This is a case where door is “opened” (open information).

  Here, the search target in the probe database 303 may be all data in the probe database 303, or may be data within a preset period, for example. The preset period is, for example, the past year. Further, even when no time condition is specified in the request information RQ, only probe information in a preset time zone including the time when the request information RQ is received may be set as a search target.

  Next, the location determination unit 302C divides the specified search target range into a plurality of locations, and performs voting processing on the extracted probe information with respect to the partitioned locations. Thus, the number of vehicles whose doors are opened and closed is determined for each place. The division is set, for example, by dividing the search target range into a grid having a predetermined size. Also, when voting probe information, for the same vehicle (same id), the voting right for the same place is set to 1, and even if the same vehicle stops at the same place several times, it stops once It is preferable to count.

  Here, the method for identifying the meeting place based on the position of the vehicle where the door is opened and closed is not limited to this. For example, a plurality of set positions may be obtained by performing known statistical processing on a set of position information in the extracted plurality of probe information. In this case, with respect to the plurality of extracted probe information, a plurality of pieces of probe information that are probe information of the same vehicle and whose proximity distances are set in advance are converted into one piece of probe information. Conversion refers to only representative probe information, or conversion into one piece of probe information with the position of the center of gravity of a plurality of probe information groups at close distances as position information.

Then, the place determination unit 302C selects a place where the number of vehicles whose doors are opened and closed is equal to or more than a preset number as a meeting place.
Here, the opening of the vehicle door is equivalent to the person getting on and off, and if it is a position around the POI, it can be considered that the waiting of the person and the vehicle has been performed.
If the number of selected meeting places is the preset number of presentations, the place determination unit 302C extracts the number of presentations from the side with the largest number of vehicles that have been opened and closed.

The presentation information including the extracted meeting place information is, for example, in a list format. Then, for example, the presentation information is generated by setting the information on the meeting place having a large number of vehicles whose doors have been opened and closed higher, that is, by increasing the priority. Alternatively, the presentation information is generated in the order closer to the reference position (synonymous with the specified position) specified from the specified position, and the higher the closer to the reference position, the higher the presentation information. That is, the priority is set for the information of the meeting place to obtain the presentation information.
In addition, if the place determination unit 302C determines from the presentation information in the above list format or the like that the public stop space such as an area where parking is prohibited or a bus stop overlaps with the meeting place position to be presented, the place Is deleted.
The information transmission unit 305 performs processing for transmitting the presentation information created by the location determination unit 302C to the request source.

Next, the process of the meeting place presentation device 102 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
In step S501, the request reception unit 301 receives request information RQ including a designated position related to a meeting place from the user. Specifically, as described above, not only the information on the designated position relating to the position where the user wants to wait but also the search condition such as the search range is received. If the request information RQ is received, the process proceeds to step S502.

In step S <b> 502, the meeting place extraction unit 302 searches for a meeting place from the probe database 303. Specifically, the search target range is specified from the designated position related to the meeting place requested by the user, and the search information of the specified search target range is combined with the information that the door is opened to search.
In step S503, when the corresponding information exists as a result of the search (Yes in S503), the process proceeds to step S504. On the other hand, if the corresponding information does not exist as a result of the search (No in S503), the process proceeds to step S505.

In step S504, the meeting place extraction unit 302 creates presentation information. And the information transmission part 305 transmits the presentation information regarding the meeting place extracted with respect to the user.
In step S505, the information transmission unit 305 notifies the user that there is no corresponding information. In addition, the user is notified that the condition regarding the meeting place is transmitted again.

(Operation other)
An operation of the meeting place extraction unit 302 when receiving request information RQ including a designated position to be waited for such as “XX station south exit” from the user will be described.
The meeting place extraction unit 302 performs a process for extracting a meeting place when the request receiving unit 301 receives request information RQ including information on a designated position that indicates a place to be waited for. First, the meeting place extraction unit 302 specifies a search target range based on the received information on the designated position. Then, the meeting place extraction unit 302 extracts, from the probe database 303, probe information that is information on a vehicle that has uploaded probe information within the specified search target range and has information that the door is opened. Whether the vehicle has uploaded probe information within the search target range is searched using latitude information (lat) and longitude information (lon) in FIG. Whether the door is opened or not is determined by door opening / closing information (door) in FIG.

By the above process, it is possible to extract the information on the vehicle whose door is opened around the designated position received, that is, the information on the position of the vehicle that may have waited.
Next, the meeting place extraction unit 302 divides the specified search target range into a plurality of sections according to preset conditions, and information on designated positions written in the extracted probe information data for each section. Voting is performed using (latitude information (lat), longitude information (lon)).

  Here, when the probe information is uploaded at a rate of once per second, the information that the door is open at a certain position is uploaded for the time that the door is open. For this reason, the search is hit in proportion to the time when the vehicle is stopped. That is, if the door of a certain vehicle is opened for 10 seconds, the opened of the door opening / closing information (door) will be 10 hits. As described above, when the doors are opened continuously in time, or when the position information at that time is almost the same, processing is performed so that the waiting is counted once. In the above embodiment, the processing is described with reference to the door information of the previous data, but there is only one probe information of the same vehicle that is continuously door opening information at the same vehicle position. You may process as.

In the present embodiment, an example is described in which the process of counting one time is performed even when there are a plurality of pieces of probe information that are opened and closed when the same vehicle stops at the same place.
By performing such processing, the meeting place extraction unit 302 can extract information on the designated position of the meeting place (latitude information (lat), longitude information (lon)) and hit number information.
Then, the meeting place extraction unit 302 extracts a section (place) where the number of hits is equal to or greater than a preset threshold value as a waiting place candidate.

  Although the search range is not described in the above description, for example, when a distance range such as “within a radius of 1 km from the XX station south exit” is specified as a search condition, the radius is within 1 km centered on the received specified position. You can search by crossing the vehicle that uploaded the probe information and the information that the door was opened. When a time range such as “XX station south exit in the time zone from 18:00 to 21:00” is designated, the vehicle and the door opened information on the probe information around the received position, and further, 18 The search may be performed by multiplying within the time zone from time to 21:00 (time information (time_stamp) in FIG. 2).

  The same applies to the search conditions. When a condition such as “10 in descending order of frequency of waiting” is designated, the top 10 having the highest number of hits among the waiting places extracted by the waiting place extracting unit 302. Just pick out about. When a condition such as “in order from □□ Co., Ltd.” is designated, ten queuing locations extracted by the queuing location extraction unit 302 may be extracted in order from “□□ Co., Ltd.”.

  Then, the information transmission unit 305 transmits information on the meeting place extracted by the meeting place extraction unit 302 to the requesting place information notification apparatus 100. The location information notification device 100 performs display processing for presenting a meeting place on a display unit of a device on which the location information notification device 100 is mounted. For example, the location information notification device 100 synthesizes and displays the position data of the meeting place acquired from the meeting place presentation device 102 on the map data including the designated position so as to overlap. The position of the meeting place is displayed by a number, for example, and the higher the priority, the smaller the number, for example.

FIG. 6 is a display example of information related to the meeting place that the location information notification device 100 presents to the user.
A display screen 401 is a screen of a display unit mounted on a device such as a mobile phone on which the location information notification device 100 is mounted. A display area 402 of the display screen 401 is a request regarding a position where a user wants to wait, and information on a specified position, a search range, and a search condition are described therein. A display area 403 shows the meeting place extracted by the meeting place extraction unit 302 on the map viewer. In this figure, for the sake of simplicity, candidates for the meeting place are presented with four circle numbers (1) to (4). A display area 404 shows detailed information on the extracted meeting places (1) to (4). In this figure, the extracted position information and the number of search hits are displayed. For example, when the meeting place (2) is selected on the display area 403, a screen interface may be considered in which the information in the display area 404 is changed to the information on the meeting place (2).

  With the above system, the information on the opening of the door is searched from the probe information uploaded from a plurality of vehicles, the corresponding position is extracted as a meeting place, and provided to the user. By doing so, it is possible to propose a place where there is a high possibility that the meeting has actually been performed in the past, and thus it is possible to provide useful information to the user.

(Modification)
(1) The information on the meeting place may be converted into information such as an address or in front of a building by referring to the map database 304.
(2) Moreover, when the position of the meeting place overlaps with the position where parking is prohibited or overlaps with the position of the public parking lot, it may be excluded from the extraction result.
(3) Conversely, when the location of the meeting place is a pickup lane (a stop space for general vehicles) set in a plaza in front of the station, it may be preferentially proposed to the user.

(4) In the above-described embodiment, the case where the user specifies and requests information on a place where the user wants to meet is illustrated. Instead of this, information on the current position when the user operates a device on which the location information notification device 100 is mounted may be information on the designated position included in the request information RQ. The current position may be specified by GPS or the like.
For example, when a pedestrian who is a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone and has a mobile terminal equipped with the location information notification device 100 operates the mobile terminal and transmits an information provision request for a meeting place, the current location of the pedestrian The surrounding meeting places will be extracted and presented.

In this case, in FIG. 3, the request receiving unit 301 receives current position information by a current position detection device such as a GPS provided in a terminal (for example, a mobile phone 104, a personal computer 105, or a vehicle 106 having communication devices) possessed by the user. To do. The current position information is specifically latitude / longitude information. The processing in the meeting place extraction unit 302 is performed as described above.
In this case, the user can obtain information on the meeting place around the current position without determining the meeting place in advance.

  (5) In addition, information on the waiting party may be set in the request information RQ. For example, the information on the meeting partner is a symbol written on, for example, an automobile registration number mark (number plate). The meeting place presentation device 102 specifies a target vehicle by a vehicle database or the like, and if the specified vehicle is communicable, for example, after inquiring, transmits information on the extracted meeting place. At this time, when there is information on the meeting place selected from the vehicle, the selected place may be presented to the request source that transmitted the request information RQ. In this case, a meeting place where the vehicle occupant can easily go can be presented to the request source.

(Effect of this embodiment)
This embodiment has the following effects.
(1) When the request receiving unit 301 receives the request information RQ, the meeting place extraction unit 302 refers to the probe information in the probe database 303 and extracts the meeting place from the information on the designated position. At this time, the meeting place extraction unit 302 opens and closes the door within the range specified by the search range condition set in advance based on the position specified from the information on the specified position included in the request information RQ. The meeting place is extracted based on the position information. The information transmission unit 305 transmits the extracted information on the meeting place as presentation information to the request source that transmitted the request information RQ.

According to this configuration, since it is possible to propose a place where a vehicle occupant and a pedestrian have actually waited in the past, that is, a place where the vehicle is easy to stop and is suitable for waiting, Can provide useful information.
Here, the position where the door of the vehicle is opened / closed is highly likely to have been taken on and off from the vehicle, and such a vehicle position is likely to be a place where it is easy to wait. In this configuration, such a place can be proposed as a meeting place.

(2) The meeting place extraction unit 302 extracts, as a meeting place, a place where the number of vehicles whose doors have been opened and closed is equal to or more than a preset number.
The more vehicles that have been opened and closed, the more likely it is to be a place where meeting is easier. For this reason, a place more suitable as a meeting place can be proposed.

(3) The meeting place extraction unit 302 extracts a place with a large number of vehicles with doors opened and closed as a meeting place with priority over a place with a small number of vehicles with doors opened and closed.
According to this configuration, it is possible to preferentially present information on a place where more waiting is performed.
(4) The meeting place extraction unit 302 extracts a place close to the position specified from the information on the designated position as a meeting place in preference to a place far from the position specified from the information on the upper designated position.
According to this configuration, information on the meeting place closer to the position designated by the request source can be presented with priority.

(5) If it is determined that the extracted meeting place overlaps with the parking / parking prohibition position, information on the meeting place overlapping with the parking / parking prohibition position is removed from the presentation information.
According to this configuration, it is possible to avoid the proposed parking / stopping area as a meeting place.
(6) When it is determined that the extracted meeting place overlaps with the position of the public parking lot, information on the meeting place overlapping with the position of the public parking lot is removed from the presentation information.
According to this configuration, it is possible to avoid proposing a public parking lot as a meeting place.

(7) When the extracted meeting place overlaps with the stop space position for ordinary vehicles, the priority of presentation is set higher than in the case where it does not overlap with the stop space position for ordinary vehicles.
According to this configuration, it is possible to obtain information on a meeting place that is more likely to have been actually met by a vehicle occupant and a pedestrian in the past and that is publicly recognized.
Here, since the stop space position for a general vehicle is a place where passengers get on and off the vehicle, when there are many getting on and off at that place, it is useful information for the user to present the place.

(8) The information on the designated position is information on the current position of the request source.
According to this configuration, a candidate for a meeting place around the current position of the request source can be proposed. For this reason, it is possible to obtain information on the meeting place around the current position of the user without determining the meeting place in advance.

(9) The request information RQ includes partner identification information for identifying a meeting partner, and the information transmission unit 305 transmits the presentation information to the partner identified by the partner identification information.
According to this configuration, a candidate for a meeting place can be presented to a partner who is to meet.
At this time, the meeting place presentation device 102 is configured to present the presentation information to the other party before transmitting it to the request source, and acquire information on the meeting place selected by the other party, and the meeting candidate selected by the other party is selected. It is good also as a structure which transmits to a request origin. In this case, it is possible to present more useful meeting place candidates according to the convenience of the other party.
