(Operation of the climbing notification creation terminal)
Next, with reference to FIG. 3A, FIG. 3B, FIG. 4, and FIG. 5, operation | movement of the kiosk terminal 1 as a mountain climbing notification preparation terminal is demonstrated. 3A, 3B, and 4 are diagrams created using the Geographical Survey Institute map (electronic national land web) of the Geographical Survey Institute.
FIGS. 3A and 3B are diagrams each showing a display mode of the kiosk terminal 1, and are diagrams showing screens displayed on the display 24. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a mountain climbing report created by the kiosk terminal 1. FIG. 5 is a sequence chart showing the operation of the kiosk terminal 1. Below, operation | movement of the kiosk terminal 1 is demonstrated along the sequence chart of FIG.

  Step S01: First, the kiosk terminal 1 is logged in and activated by a user (in this embodiment, a climber). Since the kiosk terminal 1 has various functions, a mountain climber logs in by selecting the climbing notification creation function of the kiosk terminal 1.

  Since the kiosk terminal 1 is connected to the network NW by the communication unit 17, the climber may log in to the nearest kiosk terminal 1 and operate it. In this case, the nearest kiosk terminal 1 may be any station, road service area, or kiosk terminal 1 installed in a convenience store on the way to the destination where the climber will enter the mountain. If it is before departure, it may be a government office or a kiosk terminal 1 in the town. That is, the climber can select the most convenient kiosk terminal 1 according to the situation at that time.

  The climber inputs his / her ID information when logging into the kiosk terminal 1. When own basic information is registered in the mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6 in advance, a user ID and a password may be input as ID information. Otherwise, basic information for identifying an individual such as name, age, address, gender, and contact information is input to the kiosk terminal 1. Thereby, the climber who creates and reports the climbing notice is specified. In particular, when logging in to the kiosk terminal 1 using the NFC terminal 23, it is possible to save the input effort by storing the ID information or basic information of the NFC terminal 23 in advance.

Step S11: When the kiosk terminal 1 is logged in to the mountain climbing notification creation function, the display unit 13 displays the image shown in FIG.
FIG. 3A is a diagram illustrating a first mode of display of the kiosk terminal 1 (a mountain climbing notification creation terminal). In the first mode, a map 31 and a pointer 30 are displayed on the display 24. The pointer 30 moves on the map 31 in conjunction with the movement of the mouse 21 connected to the input unit 12 and the input from the keyboard 22 (one of an input process and a display process).

Step S02: The kiosk terminal 1 is designated at an arbitrary position on the map 31 by a climber. In step S11, since the kiosk terminal 1 displays the map 31 and the pointer 30 on the display 24, the climber operates the mouse 21 or the keyboard 22 while checking the position of the pointer 30, and uses the pointer 30 for the map. Any position on 31 can be specified.
Specifically, for example, the climber operates the mouse 21 to move the pointer 30 to the point A (see FIG. 3B), and performs the determination operation of the point A there. The confirmation operation is, for example, a click operation of the left switch of the mouse 21. Next, the pointer 30 is moved to an arbitrary point B in the same manner. Note that the kiosk terminal 1 can point the point B after the confirmation operation of the point A is performed. In addition, the kiosk terminal 1 can display the characters “A” or “B” in the vicinity of the pointer 30 to make it easy to understand which point the pointer 30 designates.

Step S12: The kiosk terminal 1 specifies the point A and the point B input from the input unit 12 by the range specifying unit 14, and displays the point A and the point B on the map 31 by the display unit 13 (display) One of the processes).
FIG. 3B is a diagram illustrating a second mode of display of the kiosk terminal 1 (a mountain climbing notification creation terminal). In the second mode, a point A and a point B designated by the pointer 30 on the map 31 are displayed, and a rectangular range 32 having a straight line connecting the point A and the point B as a diagonal line is displayed. As a result, the climber can specify the rectangular range 32 that is his / her mountain range while checking the position and range on the map 31.
In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the point A is latitude 36 degrees 34 minutes 46.22 seconds and longitude 137 degrees 34 minutes 50.80 seconds, and is 53SQA30915133 in UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) point notation. Point B is a latitude of 36 degrees 33 minutes 41.14 seconds, a longitude of 137 degrees 36 minutes 40.57 seconds, and a UTM point 53SQA336949440. The kiosk terminal 1 displays a map 31, points A and B, and a square range 32. At the same time, the latitude and longitude of the points A and B, UTM points, addresses of the square range 32, and the like may be displayed (not shown).

Step S03: In the kiosk terminal 1, the square range 32 is determined by the climber. The determination of the rectangular area 32 is made by the determination operation of the point B.
Specifically, the climber confirms the point A, the point B, and the rectangular range 32 displayed on the display 24, and if the rectangular range 32 is suitable for his / her mountain range, the climbing operation for the point B is performed. Do. The confirmation operation for the point B is the same as the confirmation operation for the point A described above. When the two points of the point A and the point B are determined, the rectangular range 32 whose diagonal is a straight line connecting the point A and the point B is uniquely determined.

  Step S13: The kiosk terminal 1 designates the rectangular range 32 from the determined points A and B by the range designation unit 14 (range designation step). Subsequently, the kiosk terminal 1 uses the range information generation unit 15 to generate range information regarding the rectangular range 32 (range information generation step). The range information is a geographic identifier or map data for geographically specifying the rectangular range 32 that is the mountain range. In the present embodiment, the kiosk terminal 1 generates, as range information, map data in which the rectangular range 32 is drawn, and the latitude, longitude, and UTM point of the points A and B as geographic identifiers.

  Step S04: The kiosk terminal 1 is input with a mountain climbing date and time by a climber. The climber inputs the scheduled entry date and descent date to the kiosk terminal 1 in order to create a notice of climbing.

Step S14: The kiosk terminal 1 creates a mountain climbing report including the above-described range information and the input and descended mountain date and time by the mountain climbing report creating unit 16 (climbing report creating step). Then, the kiosk terminal 1 transmits the created mountain climbing report to the mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6 via the network NW by the communication unit 17 (one of communication steps).
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a mountain climbing report that is created. In the notification of climbing, (1) name, (2) age, (3) address, (4) emergency contact information, and (5) scheduled entry date and time, (6) Shimoyama, which are basic information for identifying climbers The scheduled date and time are listed. Then, as range information, image data of the map 31 indicating the rectangular range 32 is pasted as (7) a mountain range. Further, latitude, longitude, and UTM points as geographic identifiers of the points A and B are described as (8) coordinates as the range information.
In addition, when the kiosk terminal 1 provided with the printing unit 19 is used to create a mountain climbing report, the climber can print the mountain climbing report created using the printing unit 19.

  Step S61: The mountain climbing notification transmitted from the kiosk terminal 1 is received and registered by the mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6. The registration result may be returned from the mountain climbing notification management device 6 to the kiosk terminal 1.

(Function and effect)
As described above, according to the first embodiment, the range on the map 31 displayed on the display 24 is controlled by the input unit 12, the display unit 13, and the range specifying unit 14 being controlled by the control unit 11. The range specification function to be specified can be realized. Therefore, the kiosk terminal 1 as the mountain climbing notification creation terminal can easily specify the mountain range based on the input and instruction from the climber.
Furthermore, a mountain climbing notification indicating the mountain range can be created and transmitted to the mountain climbing management apparatus 6 that registers the mountain climbing notification via the network NW. Therefore, in the process of creating a mountain climbing report, it becomes easy for the climber to enter the important mountain range, and the mountain climbing report is put in the mountain climbing notification post at the mountain entrance, or brought or mailed to the police station in charge. It can be submitted more easily than. Therefore, the submission rate of mountain climbing notifications can be expected to improve.
In particular, according to the first embodiment, the rectangular range 32 indicating the mountain range can be specified only by specifying the two vertices of the point A and the point B on the map 31. Therefore, since the burden on the climber related to the operation is reduced, an improvement in the submission rate of the mountain climbing notification can be expected.

  The first embodiment of the present invention has been described above, but various modifications can be made, for example, as described below, without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

(Modification 1)
In the first embodiment, the mountain range is a rectangular range 32 indicated by two vertices, point A and point B. However, the method of defining the mountain range based on two points is not limited to this. For example, you may prescribe | regulate as an elliptical range which makes the point A and the point B a focus.

(Modification 2)
FIG. 6A is a diagram illustrating a third mode of display of the mountain climbing notification creation terminal, and is a diagram illustrating another example of a method for defining a mountain range based on two points. In the mountain range defining method shown in FIG. 6A, a circular range 34 having the point A as the center and the point B as a point on the circumference is set as the mountain range. In this case, since the straight line connecting the point A and the point B is the radius 33 of the mountain range, there is an advantage that it is easy for the climber to grasp the distance at which he / she acts when climbing plans.

(Modification 3)
FIG. 6B is a diagram illustrating a fourth mode of display of the mountain climbing notification creating terminal, and is a diagram illustrating still another example of a method for defining a mountain range. In the method for defining the mountain range shown in FIG. 6B, after the point A is determined, the range surrounded by the trajectory 35 until the pointer 30 is moved on the map 31 and reaches the point B is set as the mountain range. As shown in FIG. 6B, the trajectory 35 desirably forms a closed range by intersecting at some point, but it is sufficient that an approximate range can be specified even if there is no intersecting point. In this case, the position information specifying the range on the map 31 is a set of a plurality of points on the trajectory 35. According to this method for defining a mountain range, a climber can visually indicate his / her mountain range on the map 31, so that there is an advantage that an accurate mountain range can be easily indicated.

(Modification 4)
FIG. 6C is a diagram illustrating a fifth mode of display of the mountain climbing notification creation terminal, and is a diagram illustrating still another example of a method for defining a mountain range. In the method for defining the mountain range shown in FIG. 6C, the range is specified based on the keyword related to the map 31. The keyword is input from the input unit 12 and includes, for example, a place name, a station name, a river name, a mountain name, a building name, and the like.
FIG. 6C shows an example where the mountain hut 313, Mikuriga pond, Mt. Kunimi, and Mt. Jodo are entered as keywords. In the mountain climbing notification creating terminal, the control unit 11 searches the map DB 18 for a range 36 including the keyword points and displays the range 36. According to the method for defining the mountain range, the range is specified using information that the mountain climber knows, so the burden on the mountain climber related to the operation can be reduced. In addition, it is easy to make a mountain climbing plan because it is possible to grasp how wide the mountain range including the destination you want.

(Modification 5)
As described above, the mobile phone 2, the PC 3, and the tablet terminal 4 can be used as a mountain climbing report creation terminal.
In particular, when the mobile phone 2 and the tablet terminal 4 are used as a mountain climbing notification creation terminal, it is possible to create a mountain climbing notification anytime and anywhere by taking advantage of its portability. Furthermore, since the mobile phone 2 and the tablet terminal 4 are mostly belonging to individuals, the ID information and basic information registered in advance are used without bothering to input ID information and basic personal information. Individuals (climbers) can be identified.
On the other hand, when the PC 3 is used as a mountain climbing report creation terminal, since a printer is often installed nearby, it is easy to print a mountain climb or print a map, which is highly convenient.

  Note that FIG. 6A of the second modification, FIG. 6B of the third modification, and FIG. 6C of the fourth modification are created using the Geographical Survey Institute map (electronic national land web) of the Geographical Survey Institute.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the mountain climbing notification creating terminal in the reward granting system to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIGS. In the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, a kiosk terminal 1 will be described as an example of a mountain climbing notification creation terminal. FIG. 9 is a sequence chart showing the operation of the mountain climbing notification creating terminal according to the second embodiment.

Next, a reward granting system to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 10 is a schematic configuration diagram of the mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6. FIG. 11 is a sequence chart showing the operation of the reward granting system according to the third embodiment.

  As illustrated in FIG. 10, the mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6 includes a so-called high-performance CPU 61, and includes a ROM 62, a RAM 63, a database (DB) 65, a recording unit 66, and a communication unit 67. The CPU 61 may be a multi-CPU type including a plurality of CPUs. The CPU 61 is operated by an OS (Operating System) and application programs stored in the ROM 62. The RAM 63 is used as a temporary storage location for data when the CPU 61 operates. The DB 65 accumulates climber registration data, account information at financial institutions, and the like. The recording unit 66 records the mountain climbing report when the mountain climbing report submitted by the climber is registered. The communication unit 67 is connected to the network NW and communicates with an external device via the network NW (see FIG. 2). The climbing notification management device 6 is a server having clients such as a kiosk terminal 1, a mobile phone 2, a PC 3, a tablet terminal 4, an insurance company 8 as a financial institution (incentive granting unit), a point management institution 9 as clients, etc. Function as.

  Hereinafter, the operation of the reward granting system will be described with reference to the sequence chart of FIG. In the first embodiment and the second embodiment, the kiosk terminal 1 is described as an example of the mountain climbing notification creation terminal. However, in the third embodiment, the tablet terminal 4 is exemplified as the mountain climbing notification creation terminal. I will explain.

(Operation of reward granting system)
In the sequence chart of FIG. 11, the mountain climbing notification creation terminal is replaced with the tablet terminal 4 from the kiosk terminal 1, but steps S01 to S04 and steps S11 to S14 are the same as the sequence charts of FIGS. 5 and 9. Therefore, the description is omitted.

  Step S61: The mountain climbing notification transmitted from the tablet terminal 4 is received and registered by the mountain climbing notification managing device 6. The mountain climbing notification management device 6 receives a mountain climbing notification from the tablet terminal 4 via the network NW by the communication unit 67. Thereafter, it is registered in the recording unit 66 by a registration unit formed by an application program stored in the ROM 62. The registration result may be returned from the mountain climbing notification management device 6 to the tablet terminal 4.

  Step S64: The validity of the climbing notification received and registered in step S61 is determined. Specifically, by the following method (1) or method (2), it is confirmed whether the mountain climber has actually entered the mountain according to the content described in the mountain climbing notification, and the validity of the mountain climbing notification is determined. I do.

Method (1): Based on the climber location confirmation information transmitted from the location confirmation terminal 5 (see FIG. 2), the validity determination unit formed by the application program stored in the ROM 62 determines the validity of the mountain climbing notification. to decide. The location confirmation terminal 5 is installed at a predetermined place in various places where mountain climbing is performed, such as a mountain climbing entrance, a mountain hut, and an observation deck. The climber location confirmation information is created when the location confirmation terminal 5 is operated by a climber. At this time, the location confirmation terminal 5 requests input of information for identifying the individual such as the climber's ID information or fingerprint recognition. Therefore, the climber location confirmation information includes information for identifying the individual together with the location of the location confirmation terminal 5 and the transmission date and time.
The validity determination unit of the mountain climbing notification management device 6 identifies the climber by comparing the climber's ID information or registration data such as fingerprint recognition stored in the DB 65 with the climber location confirmation information. In addition, the validity determination unit confirms whether or not the climber is in the climbing range in the period of the entry and exit mountain date and time described in the climbing notification.
As a result, when it is confirmed that the climber is entering the mountain based on the mountain climbing notification, it is determined that the submitted mountain climbing notification is valid.

Method (2): Some portable terminals such as the cellular phone 2 and the tablet terminal 4 include a GPS (Global Positioning System) as a function. Therefore, a climber carries a portable terminal provided with a GPS function when entering a mountain, and the position of the climber is specified. The climber transmits his / her position information specified by the GPS function to the climbing notification management device 6 while entering the mountain. When the position information is transmitted, the ID information of the portable terminal is transmitted together.
The mountain climbing notification management device 6 collates the portable terminal ID information stored in the DB 65 with the received portable terminal ID information by the validity determination unit formed by the application program stored in the ROM 62 to identify the portable terminal. Identify. Further, based on the received position information and the reception date and time, it is confirmed whether or not the climber is within the mountain range during the period of the entry and exit mountain date and time described in the mountain climbing notification.
As a result, when it is confirmed that the climber has entered the mountain based on the mountain climbing notification, it is determined that the submitted mountain climbing notification is valid.

On the other hand, if it is not confirmed that the climber is located in the climbing range during the period of entry and descending date described in the climbing notice, the climbing notice management device 6 determines that the climbing notice is invalid and is submitted. The registration of the mountain climbing notification is deleted, and the contents recorded in the recording unit 66 are deleted.
The mountain climbing notification management device 6 may register and record a valid mountain climbing report after performing the above-described validity determination step.

  Step S65: When it is determined in step S64 that the mountain climbing report is valid, the mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6 transmits an instruction to give an incentive to the climber's account to the insurance company 8 together with the mountain climber's ID information. The mountain climbing notification management device 6 activates an incentive processing unit formed by an application program stored in the ROM 62, creates an instruction to give an incentive, and transmits the instruction by the communication unit 67.

  Step S81: The insurance company 8 receives an instruction to give an incentive and the climber's ID information. Then, the climber's account in the insurance company 8 is specified based on the climber's ID information.

  Step S82: The insurance company 8 performs, as an incentive for the identified climber's account, for example, a process of reducing the contract amount of the insurance contract.

  Step S83: The insurance company 8 notifies that the provision of the incentive has been completed. Specifically, a notice of completion of grant is transmitted to the mountain climbing notification management device 6.

  Step S66: The mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6 receives and records the grant completion notification. As a result, the mountain climbing notification management device 6 can manage the submitted / registered mountain climbing notification and the incentive grant result as a history of each climber, and can respond to inquiries from the climber.

  Step S67: The mountain climbing notification management apparatus 6 transfers the grant completion notification to the tablet terminal 4 as the mountain climbing notification creation terminal. The grant completion notification to be transferred may be received as it is from the insurance company 8 or may be changed to a format adapted to the type of the climbing notice creation terminal as the transfer destination.

  Step S19: The tablet terminal 4 receives and records the grant completion notification from the mountain climbing notification management device 6. Thereby, the climber can confirm with the tablet terminal 4 that the incentive was given.

(Function and effect)
As described above, according to the reward granting system according to the third embodiment, an incentive as a reward is given to a climber who has submitted a mountain climbing notification in response to the mountain climbing notification being submitted and registered. Thereby, the climber can enjoy incentives, and the motivation for creating and submitting the mountain climbing notification is made, so the submission rate of the mountain climbing notification is also improved.

(Modification 9)
In the third embodiment, the account of the climber to give the incentive has been described as being specified by the insurance company 8 based on the climber's ID information. However, the account information of the climber is stored in the climbing notification management device 6 in the DB 65. And the climber's account may be specified by the climbing notification management device 6.
The type of incentive may be selectable by a climber at a climbing notice creation terminal. Alternatively, it may be pre-registered in the mountain climbing notification management device 6.

As described above, the three embodiments and the plurality of modified examples have been described. However, according to the reward granting method and the reward granting system for mountain climbing shown in each embodiment or each modified example, the climber can easily enter the mountain range. In addition, it is possible to easily submit and register a mountain climbing report including a mountain range. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the burden on the climber when creating and submitting the mountain climbing notification, and greatly increase the submission rate of the mountain climbing notification.
Further, in the submitted mountain climbing report, the climbing range of the climber is described as map information or a geographic identifier. Therefore, in the unlikely event that a climber needs to be rescued, the searcher can narrow down the search range based on such information, so that rescue can be performed quickly.
Furthermore, since the incentive as a reward is given to the climber who submitted the mountain climbing notification, further improvement in the submission rate of the mountain climbing notification can be expected.
