Example one

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for marking a virtual area according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 2, the marking method of the virtual area may include the steps of:

201. the terminal device sends a virtual area tagging request to the backend server, the virtual area tagging request containing the real geographical position L1.

For example, the terminal device may access the background server through any one of network access manners such as GSM, 3G, 4G, 5G, bluetooth, WIFI, and a wired network, and send the virtual area tagging request including the real geographic location L1 and the user identifier a to the background server through any one of network access manners such as GSM, 3G, 4G, 5G, and 5G, WIFI.

As an optional implementation manner, the virtual area tagging request sent by the terminal device to the backend server may further include a user identifier a, where the user identifier a is used as an identity of a user to which the terminal device belongs; the user identifier a may be an identity of the terminal device (e.g., an international mobile subscriber identity IMSI of the terminal device, a telephone number of the terminal device, etc.), or may also be account information that the user logs in an application system (e.g., an internet game application system, a social application system, etc.) having a virtual environment on the terminal device, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.

For example, the user a may be a store owner of a certain store, and the user a may log in a certain application system with a virtual scene providing function by using a terminal device, the application system with the virtual scene providing function may be composed of an application client installed on the terminal device and an application server installed on a background server (for providing a virtual scene to the application client), when the user a reaches the location of the store with the terminal device, the terminal device may automatically acquire the location of the store (i.e. the instant geographic location of the terminal device) as the real geographic location L1, and the terminal device may acquire account information of the application server (with a virtual environment providing capability) on the application client of the terminal device for logging in the background server as the user identifier a, further, the terminal device may send a virtual area tagging request including the real geographic location L1 and the user identifier a to the backend server in any network access manner such as GSM, 3G, 4G, 5G, bluetooth, WIFI, or wired network.

202. And the background server determines a virtual area matched with the real geographic position L1 from the virtual scene according to the real geographic position L1.

As an alternative embodiment, the determining, by the background server, the virtual area matching the real geographic position L1 from the virtual scene based on the real geographic position L1 may include:

the terminal equipment sends a designated area range to a background server;

the background server determines a virtual position matched with the real geographic position L1 from the virtual scene according to the real geographic position L1; for example, the virtual scene may be an electronic game map, and the virtual position matching the real geographic position L1 determined from the virtual scene may be a mapping position of the real geographic position L1 in the electronic game map;

the background server calculates whether a target virtual area which takes the virtual position matched with the real geographic position L1 as the center and takes the designated area range as the boundary in the virtual scene has an overlapping part with the marked belonged area of other users, and if the target virtual area does not have the overlapping part, the target virtual area is taken as the virtual area matched with the real geographic position L1; if there is an overlapping portion, an area overlapping with the belonged area marked by the other user is removed from the target virtual area to obtain a remaining virtual area, and the remaining virtual area is taken as a virtual area matching the real geographical position L1. Or if the overlapped part exists, the background server can send prompt information to the terminal equipment to prompt that the virtual area marking fails; and/or if the overlapped part exists, the background server can send prompt information to the terminal equipment to prompt the terminal equipment to resend the specified new area range.

As an alternative implementation, the virtual position matched with the real geographic position L1 is not limited to be the center of the target virtual area with the specified area range as the boundary, and may also be another reference point of the target virtual area, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

As another alternative, the determining, by the background server, the virtual area matched with the real geographic position L1 from the virtual scene based on the real geographic position L1 may include:

the background server determines a virtual position matched with the real geographic position L1 from the virtual scene according to the real geographic position L1;

Each area block of the virtual scene which is divided in advance corresponds to a real geographic area block. The area shapes of the plurality of area blocks into which the virtual scene is divided in advance are not limited to rectangles, and may be other shapes.

the background server calculates whether a rectangular area which takes the virtual position matched with the real geographic position L1 as a diagonal intersection in the virtual scene has an overlapping part with the marked belonged area of other users, and if the rectangular area does not have the overlapping part, the rectangular area is used as the virtual area matched with the real geographic position L1; if there is an overlapping portion, an area overlapping with the belonged area marked by the other user is removed from the rectangular area to obtain a remaining virtual area, and the remaining virtual area is taken as a virtual area matching the real geographic position L1.

The rectangular area determined according to the virtual position is not limited to the rectangular area with the virtual position as the diagonal cross point, but may also be a rectangular area with the virtual position as the top left corner vertex, or a rectangular area of another reference point or another shape area, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited.

In the embodiment of the application, for the situation of a plurality of area blocks which are divided in advance in a virtual scene, the background server records the identification of the area blocks which are divided in advance, or records data which can describe the position and shape range of the area blocks.

In the embodiment of the application, for the situation that the virtual scene is not divided into a plurality of area blocks in advance, the background server can record the virtual position and determine the rule algorithm and data of the virtual area based on the virtual position, so that the virtual area can be generated at any time in the later period according to the virtual position, the rule algorithm and the data.

203. The background server inquires whether the virtual area is allowed to be marked by the user to which the terminal equipment belongs, and if so, the step 204 is executed; if not, the flow ends.

As an optional implementation manner, the querying, by the backend server, whether the virtual area is allowed to be marked by the user to which the terminal device belongs may include:

the background server judges whether the virtual area allows the user to which the terminal equipment belongs to make the belonging mark;

if not, the background server may send a first prompt message to the terminal device, where the first prompt message is used to prompt that the virtual area matched with the real geographic location L1 does not allow the user to mark the virtual area;

if the virtual area is allowed to be marked, the background server can judge whether the user to which the terminal equipment belongs already marks the virtual area; if the user to which the terminal device belongs already marks the virtual area, the background server may send a second prompt message to the terminal device, where the second prompt message is used to prompt that the virtual area matched with the real geographic location L1 already is marked by the user;

if the user to which the terminal device belongs does not mark the virtual area, the background server can judge whether the virtual area is marked by other users; and if the virtual area is not marked by other users, the background server determines that the virtual area allows the marks of the users to which the terminal equipment belongs.

As an optional implementation manner, the determining, by the backend server, whether the virtual area allows the user to whom the terminal device belongs to make the belonging flag may include:

the background server can inquire whether the virtual area is limited by a blacklist or not, and if the user to which the terminal equipment belongs or the type of the user to which the terminal equipment belongs is in the blacklist, the virtual area can be determined not to allow the user to which the terminal equipment belongs to make a belonging mark; on the contrary, if the user to which the terminal device belongs or the type of the user to which the terminal device belongs is not in the blacklist, it may be determined that the virtual area allows the user to which the terminal device belongs to make the belonging mark.

Further, if the user to which the terminal device belongs or the type of the user to which the terminal device belongs is not in the blacklist, the background server may query whether the virtual area is provided with a white list, wherein the user or the type of the user to which the terminal device belongs is allowed to be in the white list, and the background server may query the user to which the terminal device belongs or the type of the user to which the terminal device belongs to be in the white list, so as to finally determine that the virtual area allows the user to which the terminal device belongs to be marked.

For example, the virtual area may require that the level or the virtual wealth of the user to which the terminal device belongs must meet a certain standard before allowing the marking, that is, the level or the virtual wealth of the user to which the terminal device belongs must meet a certain standard before being recorded in the white list. In the embodiment of the present application, the limitation condition of the user entering the white list is not specifically limited.

Optionally, if the virtual area is marked as belonging by another user, the backend server may query whether the other user who has marked as belonging belongs to a relationship chain user (e.g., a friend user) of the user to which the terminal device belongs, if the other user who has marked as belonging belongs to a relationship chain user of the user to which the terminal device belongs, the backend server may consult whether the other user who has marked as belonging agrees with the user marking to which the virtual area belongs by the terminal device, and if the other user who has marked as belonging agrees with the user marking to which the virtual area belongs by the terminal device, the backend server determines that the virtual area allows the user marking to which the terminal device belongs.

For example, if the virtual area has been marked by exclusive ownership by another user, the background server may query whether the other user who has made the exclusive ownership flag belongs to a relationship chain user (e.g., a friend user) of the user to which the terminal device belongs, if the other user who has made the exclusive ownership flag belongs to a relationship chain user of the user to which the terminal device belongs, the background server may consult whether the other user who has made the exclusive ownership flag agrees with the user mark to which the terminal device belongs to the virtual area, if the other user who has made the exclusive ownership flag agrees with the user mark to which the terminal device belongs to the virtual area, the background server may cancel the exclusive ownership flag of the virtual area by the other user, and then determine that the virtual area allows the user mark to which the terminal device belongs.

The belonging flag includes an exclusive belonging flag, and the real geographic location L1 includes an instant geographic location of the terminal device. The same virtual region allows different users to mark exclusive belonging marks of different categories, the same region allows a plurality of belonging categories, and the same belonging category only allows one exclusive belonging mark of the user.

204. And the background server marks the virtual area as belonging to the user to which the terminal equipment belongs.

205. And the background server sends a message of successful notification of the virtual area marker to the terminal equipment.

As an optional implementation manner, the virtual area tagging request further includes an area usage tag, after determining a virtual area matching the real geographic location L1 from the virtual scene based on the real geographic location L1, the backend server may check whether an area usage corresponding to the area usage tag of the request matches a virtual area usage matching the real geographic location L1, and if so, perform the above-mentioned query to see whether the virtual area allows the user to which the terminal device belongs to tag;

and after the background server marks the virtual area as belonging to the user to which the terminal equipment belongs, adding an effective time period to the virtual area belonging to the user to which the terminal equipment belongs.

It can be seen that, by implementing the method described in fig. 2, it is possible to omit marking the virtual area belonging to itself in the virtual scene in a manual manner, thereby facilitating the improvement of the marking efficiency of the virtual area.

In addition, by implementing the method described in fig. 2, the geographic location and the virtual scene of the real environment can be combined and applied to various application system ecosystems, so that the application range and the value of the application system ecosystems can be expanded. In addition, the concept of the right of the real world geographic position can be expanded into a virtual scene, so that the rule of the virtual scene is closer to reality.

Example two

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic flowchart illustrating another method for marking a virtual area according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 3, the marking method of the virtual area may include the steps of:

301. and the user A controls the terminal equipment to enter a virtual area identification mode based on the geographic position.

For example, the user a may be a store owner of a certain store, and the user a may log in a certain application system with a virtual scene providing function through a terminal device, where the application system with the virtual scene providing function may be composed of an application client installed on the terminal device and an application server (for providing a virtual scene to the application client) installed on a background server, and when the user a reaches a location of the store with the terminal device, the user a may control the terminal device to enter a virtual area identification mode based on a geographic location.

302. The terminal device acquires the instant geographical position of the terminal device (i.e., the location of the shop) as the real geographical position L1.

303. The terminal device sends a virtual area tagging request to the backend server, the virtual area tagging request containing the real geographical position L1.

304. And the background server determines a virtual area matched with the real geographic position L1 from the virtual scene according to the real geographic position L1.

the terminal equipment sends a designated area range to a background server;

305. The background server judges whether the virtual area allows the exclusive belonging mark of the user to which the terminal device belongs, if not, step 311 is executed; if so, step 306 is performed.

306. The background server judges whether the user to which the terminal equipment belongs has made an exclusive belonging mark for the virtual area; if the belonging flag has been made, go to step 312; if the attribute flag has not been made, go to step 307.

307. The background server judges whether the virtual area is subjected to exclusive belonging marking by other users, and if the virtual area is not subjected to exclusive belonging marking by other users, steps 308-314 are executed; if the virtual region has been exclusively owned by another user, go to step 313.

308. And the background server determines that the virtual area allows the user mark to which the terminal equipment belongs.

309. And the background server marks the virtual area as belonging to the user to which the terminal equipment belongs.

310. The background server sends a notification message that the virtual area marking is successful to the terminal device, and executes step 314.

311. The background server may send a first prompt message to the terminal device, the first prompt message being used to prompt that the virtual area matched with the real geographic location L1 does not allow the user to mark the virtual area, and execute step 314.

312. The backend server may send a second prompt message to the terminal device, the second prompt message being used to prompt that the virtual area matched with the real geographic location L1 has been marked by the user, and execute step 314.

313. The background server may send a third prompt message to the terminal device, where the third prompt message is used to prompt that the virtual area matched with the real geographic location L1 has been exclusively owned by another user, and perform step 314.

314. The terminal device exits the virtual area identification mode based on the geographic location.

As an optional implementation manner, the virtual area tagging request further includes an area usage tag, after determining a virtual area matching the real geographic location L1 from the virtual scene based on the real geographic location L1, the background server may check whether an area usage corresponding to the area usage tag of the request matches a virtual area usage matching the real geographic location L1, and if so, perform the above-mentioned query to determine whether the virtual area allows the user to which the terminal device belongs to make an exclusive belonging tag;

the background server judges whether the virtual area is allowed to be marked by a certain user;

if the virtual area is allowed to be marked, the background server judges whether the certain user marks the virtual area;

if the certain user does not mark the virtual area, the background server judges whether the virtual area is marked by other users;

if the virtual area is not marked by other users, the background server pre-allocates any virtual area in the virtual scene to a certain user and sets a validity period;

wherein the belonging flag comprises an exclusive belonging flag, and the real geographic location L1 comprises an instant geographic location or a non-instant geographic location of the terminal device; the same virtual area allows different users to mark exclusive belonging marks of different categories, the same virtual area allows a plurality of belonging categories, and one belonging category of the same virtual area only allows one user to mark exclusive belonging marks.

the background server can inquire whether the virtual area is limited by a blacklist or not, and if a certain user or the type of the certain user is in the blacklist, the virtual area can be determined not to be allowed to be marked by the certain user; conversely, if a user or a type of user is not on the blacklist, it may be determined that the virtual area is allowed to be subject to the token by a user.

Further, if a certain user or a certain user type is not in the blacklist, the background server may query whether the virtual area is provided with a white list, wherein the user or the user type allowed to be subjected to the belonging mark is in the white list, and the background server may query that the certain user or the certain user type is in the white list, so as to finally determine that the virtual area is allowed to be subjected to the belonging mark by the certain user.

For example, the virtual area may require that the level or the virtual wealth of a certain user must meet certain criteria to allow the marking, i.e., that the level or the virtual wealth of a certain user must meet certain criteria to be recorded in the white list. In the embodiment of the present application, the limitation condition of the user entering the white list is not specifically limited.
