Obviously, control module 106 can only comprise traffic message generation unit 209 or only comprise traffic message generation unit 209 and feedback information processing unit 210.
Fig. 1 c is the schematic configuration diagram of the traffic information database stored of the storage unit in the traffic information management server.In the traffic information database of storage unit 105, the position id number that every transport information goes up according to the map (such as road road chain numbering, crossing numbering, point of interest numbering etc.) is arranged.Every transport information all is divided into a plurality of classifications (such as traffic rules, point of interest, traffic events, condition of road surface etc.) and exists in the different table classes.General data is transport information content (limiting left-hand rotation etc. such as certain road cross), and the transport information of with good grounds these transport information contents and category division receives class of subscriber (such as everyone, private car, commercial car, officer's car, pedestrian, bicycle etc.), and the reliability of this information (such as 5 stars, 4 stars etc.).When management server is received the transport information request message of navigation terminal transmission, control module (106) by management server by with the communicating by letter of storage unit (105), data are carried out the retrieval of various conditions according to the above-mentioned field in the above-mentioned traffic information database, extract the corresponding transport information in the traffic information database, generate traffic message and send to navigation terminal.The example of the traffic message of downloading has explanation in Fig. 8.
Fig. 1 d is the process flow diagram that upgrades traffic information database in the traffic information management server.At first control module 106 carries out Data Format Transform 208 according to the channel of different information sources to transport information, is unified into the Interchange Format of a regulation, is stored in the traffic information database of storage unit 105.Every transport information in the traffic information data table all is according to position ID, and the information content and reliability sort, and the content of every ID has uniqueness according to the classification difference of information.The reliability of every information is not unalterable, becomes according to the quantity and the feedback of information source.
When many information sources on same position ID, occurring (such as government department, with the road information acquisition system of traffic restricted information to(for) certain bar road is arranged all), if the information content is identical, system keeps the information content constant, and the reliability that this information is set simultaneously is the highest rank of reliability in these information sources; If information is opposite, system is the reliability of relatively newer old information earlier, if the reliability of fresh information is higher, then change the information content, otherwise temporarily keep the prime information content constant, continue to detect fresh information simultaneously, when the information content opposite with the prime information content is increased to a certain degree (surpassing 50% such as the ratio that accounts for total information quantity) about this position ID, then change the content of this information, and its reliability is revised.The principle of revising reliability is to select on the basis of the information source of high reliability, changes according to the user's of this information of use feedback.If positive feedback reaches certain quantity,, then increase the reliability one-level such as surpassing 50% of total feedback quantity; If negative feedback reaches certain ratio,, then reduce the reliability one-level such as surpassing 50% of total feedback quantity.The rest may be inferred.
Fig. 2 shows the structural drawing with the navigation terminal of traffic information management server interworking.This navigation terminal comprises expression unit 21, interface unit 22, storage unit 23 and control module 24.Represent that wherein unit 21 is used for representing transport information based on described search via the path.Interface unit 22, be used to provide interface function, by described interface unit navigation terminal is connected with traffic information management server, the described transport information request message via the transport information on the path of being asked is sent to traffic information management server, and comprise described traffic message via the transport information on the path from described traffic information management server reception.Storage unit 23, be used to store via on the path, by the traffic information management table that described traffic message constitutes, described traffic information management table comprises the reliability of transport information, described transport information and represents the position ID position of described transport information on map, corresponding with described transport information.And control module 24, be used for based on described traffic information management table, control described expression unit represent with described search via the corresponding described reliability of described position ID on the path.
Below in conjunction with Fig. 1 a, 1b, Fig. 2 describe how traffic information management server carries out traffic information management alternately with navigation terminal process flow diagram.
With reference to figure 1e, at first, in step 11, the request that traffic information management server 104 receives transport information from one or more navigation terminals 108 by interface unit 107.In step 12, the control module 106 of traffic information management server 104 is according to the request of navigation terminal, from traffic information database, extract and comprise that mobile object is via the described position ID on the path, the transport information of corresponding described position ID, and the reliability corresponding and generate traffic message, and by interface unit 107 this traffic message is sent to navigation terminal 108 in step 13 with described transport information.Navigation terminal 108 is after receiving this traffic message by its interface unit 22, can be with this traffic message as being stored in the storage unit 23 via traffic information management table on the path, that constitute by described traffic message, so as the expression unit represent with described search via the corresponding described reliability of described position ID on the path.In step 14, if navigation terminal 108 has sent feedback information, then traffic information management server 104 receives this feedback information, and is upgraded by the described reliability corresponding with described position ID in 106 pairs of described traffic information databases of control module in step 15, otherwise finishes.
Fig. 3 carries out exchange work another example flow diagram with exchange and renewal transport information between traffic information management server and the navigation terminal.
This flow process is that the user begins in the starting point of stroke.Primary route calculation is finished in this locality of navigation terminal.After the path list from origin-to-destination produced, this tabulation was sent to traffic information management server 104 by cordless communication network (GPRS, CDMA, WiMAX etc.).Traffic information management server 104 is searched in the traffic information database of storage unit 105 according to this tabulation, if find to have the transport information of renewal, traffic information management server is at first checked the classification of this information.If interest point information, can not influence the result of calculation in path.If traffic rules information, conditional this path will be sent out back navigation terminal, and navigation terminal need recomputate route, sends to traffic information management server inspection once more.Use the information exchange functions of navigation terminal and traffic information management server by the user, can find the most rational travel route.After the navigation beginning, the user can select whether to start the feedback function of navigation terminal 108, also can set in advance the feedback states (activating or dormancy) of acquiescence, if startup feedback function, the gps data record is with automatic opening entry and coupling route, after the user reaches the destination this navigation of end, navigation terminal 108 generates a matching result tabulation automatically, and sending to the control module 106 of traffic information management server by interface unit 22, it can further check the reliability of this lastest imformation by this time stroke of user.If there is not the situation that it fails to match, traffic information management server 104 will increase the reliability of this lastest imformation, if the road that it fails to match is arranged, system will ask the user by literal or speech interfaces input it fails to match reason, perhaps report to the center by the vehicle-mounted picture system of automatic identification.If it is wrong proving this lastest imformation, traffic information management server will reduce the reliability of this information.If the reason that it fails to match is self-inflicted by the user, such as not travelling according to navigation way, or change the destination temporarily, navigation terminal will be beamed back not bright reason by interface unit 22 and give traffic information management server 104, and communication breath management server 104 is abandoned this feedback result.
Fig. 4 is the process flow diagram that check comes from the road information of probe vehicles or detecting device.If the information of gathering comes from the vehicle on the road, such as probe vehicles, according to its gps data, traffic information management server can generate information such as top speed, traffic direction and travel route.The ratio that surpasses some speed limits (according to present map attribute data) by the statistical study computing velocity in some periods, surpass 40% such as probability, traffic information management server can infer that change may take place the maximum speed limit that this road.By analysis and judgement traffic direction and travel route, traffic information management server can know which turn direction forbids, any bar road be close or the one-way road.The data of analyzing probe vehicles are not only based on the vehicle heading in some moment, the position, speed, or the map match route of a certain car, but according to mean velocity range, other information such as travel direction and type of vehicle are in per 5 minutes, traffic behavior rule in one day 24 hours is because most traffic rules are free restriction and type of vehicle restriction.These methods can be avoided mistake that onboard system self calculates and unilateral as far as possible.
If the information of gathering comes from the detecting device of installing on the road, such as inductive coil, camera, ultrasonic detector, microwave detector etc., traffic information management server can be analyzed the traffic flow that each detects on the section by the method for statistical study, finds the traffic flow character of road, generates the traffic situation of change.The inductive coil that top speed and traffic direction can be installed on the track is differentiated.Turn to situation to differentiate by the track that the ground directional bea con is arranged.Such as, if having sensed a car, the leftmost track from west to east at a crossing passes through, and in a signal lamp cycle, the track of the close the inside of north-to-south direction has also been sensed car and has been sailed into, illustrates that vehicle carries out being travelled by the left-hand bend of west south in the green time at this crossing.Simultaneously, the differentiation of travel route also can be carried out track up to car plate by camera and analyzes.
Fig. 5 has shown an example with vehicle mounted guidance terminal of information exchange functions.The camera 404 that a table top in this navigation terminal and the car is taken to headstock the place ahead is used to upload with the radio antenna 405 of data download and links to each other with one.In navigation map display screen (401), there are two examples to show.In example 1, car 1 is driving towards crossing 1, prepares to turn left to reach the destination A.Yet this moment, navigation terminal was received the lastest imformation that has just obtained, and showed this crossing no left turn.Warning message is presented on the bottom-right download message display screen 403, has the reliability of 3 stars.Reliability represents that this information is the more new data that just obtains from some channel, but does not also confirm through other channels.If can be confirmed, the reliability of this information also can continue to rise to higher level.This navigation terminal recomputates route automatically then, and the prompting driver turns right, and 2 turn around to get back to crossing 1 at the crossing, and the A that reaches the destination keeps straight on.The starting point that this example explanation lastest imformation promptly can begin stroke the user is by downloads that link to each other with the database of central server, points out the user on the navigation terminal but also can be in approaching renewal place be downloaded to automatically by network and central server.Take which kind of mode to upgrade and depend on concrete system and user situation.
In example 2, car 2 is driving towards crossing 2, prepares the B that reaches the destination that keeps straight on.Yet the existing road ahead inlet of vehicle-mounted pick-up hair has the traffic mark board prompting, and No entry.The road at B place, destination is the one-way road.Therefore after the driver judged voluntarily according to this situation, 2 turned left and the B that reaches the destination that detours at the crossing.At this moment, just the lastest imformation of finding uploads to central server automatically by navigation terminal and wireless network, reports the road conditions at up-to-date B place, destination.Contain the image information that camera collection arrives in the report data, and 2 the positional information at the crossing of car 2.This lastest imformation shows in uploading image display panel 402.
