[Description of operation]
6 and 7 are flowcharts showing an example of the bus route search process. The bus route search process is started when the bus route search application 111 is activated, for example.

  When the process is started, the input receiving unit 121 determines whether or not an input of a destination has been received (step S001). Specifically, the input reception unit 121 determines whether or not the user has input a destination via the input device 301 on the predetermined menu screen generated by the display information generation unit 122.

  And when it determines with not receiving the input of the destination (it is No at step S001), the input reception part 121 performs the process of step S001 again. On the other hand, when it determines with having received the input of the destination (it is Yes at step S001), the input reception part 121 transfers a process to step S002.

  In step S002, the recommended route search unit 123 determines whether or not there is a bus stop within a predetermined range (for example, a radius of 500 m) from the destination (step S002). Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 determines the presence / absence of a bus stop within a predetermined range from the destination using the map information 112 and the coordinate position 113c of the bus stop information 113.

  If it is determined that there is no bus stop (No in step S002), the recommended route search unit 123 expands the bus stop search range to a predetermined range (for example, a radius of about 1 km) (step S008), and the process of step S002 again. I do. On the other hand, when it is determined that there is a bus stop within the predetermined range (Yes in step S002), the recommended route search unit 123 shifts the processing to step S003.

  In step S003, the recommended route search unit 123 identifies a bus stop as a candidate for getting off. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 and the coordinate position 113c of the bus stop information 113 to select a predetermined number or less (for example, three or less) of bus stops closer to the destination as disembarkation candidates. Identify as a bus stop.

  The recommended route search unit 123 also uses the bus stop information 113 to specify the bus stop name 113a of the specified bus stop and the associated route number 113b.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates a walking route from each bus stop of the disembarkation candidate to the destination (step S004). Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates a walking route from each bus stop of the disembarkation candidate to the destination by a predetermined method such as Dijkstra method using the map information 112 and the coordinate position 113c of the bus stop information 113. To do.

  Note that the recommended route search unit 123 also calculates the distance and required time from each bus stop of the getting-off candidate to the destination. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 to calculate the distance of the walking route on the map by adding the link lengths of the links included in the walking route. Further, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates a required time from each bus stop of the getting-off candidate to the destination from the calculated distance and a general walking speed (for example, 4 to 5 km / h) of the person.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 determines whether or not there is a bus stop within a predetermined range (for example, a range having a radius of 500 m) from the current location (step S005). Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies the position of the information display terminal 100 on the map using the signal output from the GPS receiver 306. Further, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 and the coordinate position 113c of the bus stop information 113 to determine whether there is a bus stop within a predetermined range from the current location.

  If it is determined that there is no bus stop (No in step S005), the recommended route search unit 123 expands the search range of the bus stop to a predetermined range (for example, a radius of about 1 km) (step S009), and the process of step S005 again. I do. On the other hand, when it is determined that there is a bus stop within the predetermined range (Yes in step S005), the recommended route search unit 123 shifts the processing to step S006.

  In step S006, the recommended route search unit 123 identifies a boarding candidate bus stop. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 and the bus stop information 113 to identify a bus stop on the same route as the candidate for getting off from the bus stops within a predetermined range from the current location as the bus stop for the candidate for boarding. .

  The recommended route search unit 123 also uses the bus stop information 113 to specify the bus stop name 113a of the boarding candidate bus stop and the associated route number 113b.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates a walking route from the current location to each bus stop of the boarding candidate (step S007). Specifically, the recommended route searching unit 123 calculates a walking route from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop by a predetermined method such as the Dijkstra method, using the map information 112 and the coordinate position 113c of the bus stop information 113.

  The recommended route search unit 123 also calculates the distance and required time from the current location to each bus stop of the boarding candidate. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 to calculate the distance of the walking route on the map by adding the link lengths of the links included in the walking route. The recommended route search unit 123 calculates a required time from the current location to each bus stop of the boarding candidate based on the calculated distance and a general walking speed of the person (for example, 4 to 5 km / h).

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies each bus route from the boarding candidate bus stop to the corresponding getting-off candidate bus stop (step S010 in FIG. 7). Specifically, for example, the recommended route searching unit 123 uses the link ID 114b associated with the route number of the getting-off candidate bus stop specified in step S003 or the getting-off candidate bus stop specified in step S006, and the route-specific traveling route information 114. By specifying from the above, the bus route on the map connecting from each boarding candidate bus stop to each boarding candidate bus stop is specified.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates an estimated arrival time at the destination for each identified bus route (step S011). For example, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies the link length of the road corresponding to the link ID of each bus route from the map information 112 using the route-specific traveling route information 114 and the map information 112. The recommended route search unit 123 obtains the distance between the boarding candidate and the getting-off candidate bus stop for each bus route by adding the specified link lengths.

  Further, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 to specify predetermined information such as the number of nodes on the bus route, the link width of each road, and the legal speed, and uses these information to average the bus routes. Calculate travel speed. The recommended route search unit 123 calculates the boarding time for each bus route using the distance of the bus route and the average traveling speed.

  The method for calculating the boarding time is not particularly limited. For example, the recommended route search unit 123 determines the bus from the difference between the bus arrival time at the boarding candidate bus stop and the corresponding bus arrival time at the boarding candidate bus stop. The boarding time may be calculated for each route.

  In addition, the recommended route search unit 123 determines the estimated arrival time at the destination based on the required time from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop, the boarding time of the bus, and the time required from the getting off candidate bus stop to the destination. calculate.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies the scheduled arrival time of the bus next to the boarding candidate bus stop (step S012). Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies the bus arrival time of the next bus based on the current time, the timetable information 115, and the required time from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 generates display screen information of bus route candidates via the display information generation unit 122 and displays it on the display (step S013). Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 outputs an instruction to the display information generation unit 122 to generate bus route candidate display screen information including predetermined information.

  Upon receiving a display screen information generation instruction from the recommended route search unit 123, the display information generation unit 122 generates display screen information in a predetermined format in which predetermined information is arranged at a predetermined position. Specifically, the display information generation unit 122 divides the display area of the display into two vertically, and one of a destination, a candidate stop for getting off near the destination, and a stop for candidate getting off ( For example, a bus route that passes through the bus stop at the nearest stop to the destination), a walking route from the bus stop to the destination, a required time from the destination bus stop to the destination, The estimated arrival time is overlaid on the map, and this is temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the upper display area.

In the following, information displayed in the upper display area may be referred to as destination peripheral information.

  The display information generation unit 122 corresponds to a mark indicating the current location, a bus stop for a boarding candidate near the current location, a walking route from the current location to the bus stop for a boarding candidate, and a bus stop for a candidate to get off to be displayed in the upper display area. The bus route of the route is superimposed on the map, and this is temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the lower display area. In the following, information displayed in the lower display area may be referred to as current location surrounding information.

  The display information generation unit 122 receives from the user the distance and required time of the walking route to the bus stop of the boarding candidate displayed in the lower display area, the estimated arrival time of the next bus, and the determination of the displayed bus route. An instruction reception button (for example, an instruction reception button “make this route”) is temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the lower display area.

  In addition, the display information generation unit 122 acquires information to be displayed in the upper display area and information to be displayed in the lower display area from the storage unit 110, and generates display screen information of bus route candidates using these. Further, the display information generation unit 122 displays the generated display screen information on the display.

  When the processing is started, the route guidance generating unit 124 acquires information on the bus boarding rules from the information providing apparatus 200 via the communication unit 130 (step S021). Specifically, the route guidance generation unit 124, via the communication unit 130, the destination name, fee (cash and IC card), boarding method (for example, boarding from the door in front of the bus, or from the door behind the bus) Boarding) and boarding rules (e.g. "Payment is postpaid or prepaid", "Get a numbered ticket for cash payment when boarding, touch for IC card payment"), etc. The information regarding the boarding rules corresponding to the route of the selected bus route is acquired from the information providing apparatus 200.

  In addition, the route guidance generation unit 124 generates bus route guidance information including bus boarding rules. Specifically, the route guidance generating unit 124 generates bus route guidance information including current location surrounding information including the selected bus route and information related to boarding rules.

  Next, the route guidance generation unit 124 generates display screen information of bus route guidance information via the display information generation unit 122 (step S022). The route guidance generation unit 124 outputs an instruction to the display information generation unit 122 to generate bus route guidance display screen information.

  The display information generating unit 122 divides the display area of the display vertically into two parts, a mark indicating the current location, a bus stop for a boarding candidate on the selected bus route, and a walking route from the current location to the bus stop for a boarding candidate are selected. The bus route is overlaid on the map and temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the upper display area.

  Moreover, the display information generation part 122 stores temporarily the information which shows the bus stop name of a boarding candidate, and the bus stop name of an alighting candidate in the memory | storage part 110 as information displayed on an upper display area.

  In addition, the display information generation unit 122 receives an instruction from the user to display the distance and required time of the walking route from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop, the scheduled arrival time of the next bus, and the timetable of the boarding candidate bus stop. A reception button (for example, an instruction reception button “Details of timetable”) is temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the upper display area.

  The display information generation unit 122 also includes a destination name, a fee (cash and an IC card), a boarding method (for example, boarding from a door in front of the bus, or boarding from a door behind the bus) and boarding rules (for example, “payment” Is postpaid or prepaid "," Get a numbered ticket for cash payment when boarding, touch for IC card payment ") in the lower display area It is temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed.

  In addition, the display information generation unit 122 acquires information to be displayed in the upper display area and information to be displayed in the lower display area from the storage unit 110, and generates display screen information for bus route guidance using these (Step S023). ).

  Next, the display information generation unit 122 displays the bus route guidance display screen information on the display (step S024), and ends the processing of this flow.

  FIG. 11 shows an example display screen 500 for bus route guidance. As shown in the figure, the display screen is vertically divided into two, and an upper display area 501 includes a mark 502 indicating the current location, a selected bus route 503, and a bus stop 504 that is a candidate for boarding on the selected bus route 503. The walking route 505 from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop, the distance 506 and the required time 507 of the walking route from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop, the expected arrival time 508 of the next bus, and the timetable of the boarding candidate bus stop An instruction reception button (instruction reception button “Detailed timetable”) 509, a boarding candidate bus stop name 510, and a boarding candidate bus stop name 511 are displayed.

  The lower display area 520 includes a destination name 521, a fee (cash and IC card) 522, a boarding method (for example, boarding from the door in front of the bus or boarding from the door behind the bus) 523 and boarding rules ( For example, information on boarding rules such as “Explanation image 524 of“ Will payment be postpaid or prepaid? ”Or“ Acquisition of numbered ticket for cash payment and touch for IC card payment ”) It is displayed.

  The information displayed in the upper display area 501 and the lower display area 520 is not limited. For example, information related to a bus stop near the current location is displayed in the lower display area 520, and information related to boarding rules is displayed in the upper display area 501. May be displayed.

  The bus route guidance process has been described above.

  According to such an information display terminal according to the first embodiment, it is possible to provide guidance information related to the bus route in a display form that is easier to see. In particular, when the information display terminal accepts the input of the destination, the information display terminal divides the display area of the display, displays predetermined information about a bus stop around the destination in one display area, and displays the surroundings of the current position in the other display area. Predetermined information regarding the bus stop of the vehicle is displayed. This allows the user to get on the bus from which bus stop around the current location to get to the bus stop closest to the destination, or from which bus stop around the current location to shorten the required time to the destination. It is possible to judge whether it should be easy to see visually.

  The information display terminal also displays the walking route from the current location to the bus stop around the current location and the walking route from the bus stop around the destination to the destination and the required time, so that the user can reach the desired bus stop or destination without hesitation. Can do.

<Second embodiment>
Next, the information display terminal 100 according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. The information display terminal 100 according to the second embodiment provides the user with information related to the connecting route that transfers the bus to the bus stop near the destination. Note that the functional configuration and hardware configuration of the information display terminal 100 are the same as those in the first embodiment, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted. Further, the information display terminal 100 according to the present embodiment can execute the bus route search process and the bus route guidance process according to the first embodiment.

  12 and 13 are flowcharts showing an example of the bus route search process according to the present embodiment. In the following description, processing different from that of the first embodiment will be mainly described, and description of processing similar to that of the first embodiment will be omitted.

  When the bus route search process is started, the recommended route search unit 123 performs steps S031 to S034 and step S038, which are the same processes as steps S001 to S004 and S008 described above.

  Next, in step S035, the recommended route search unit 123 determines a bus stop on a route corresponding to each bus stop that is a candidate for getting off, and a bus stop included in a predetermined range from the current location and a bus stop not included. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies the position of the information display terminal 100 on the map using the signal output from the GPS receiver 306. The recommended route search unit 123 uses the map information 112 and the coordinate information 113c of the bus stop information 113, and is a bus stop on the route corresponding to each bus stop that is a candidate for getting off, and has a predetermined range (for example, a range having a radius of 500 m) from the current location. Bus stops included in (in) and bus stops not included.

  Then, the recommended route search unit 123 shifts to the process of step S036 for the bus stop determined to be included in the predetermined range, and performs the process up to step S041. On the other hand, the recommended route search unit 123 shifts to a transit route search process described later for a bus stop that is determined not to be included in the predetermined range. In addition, since the process of step S036-step S041 is the same as the process of above-mentioned step S006-step S012, description is abbreviate | omitted.

  14 and 15 are flowcharts showing an example of the connection route search process. When the transit route search process is started, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the bus stop information 113 to indicate that the route corresponds to the bus stop that is a candidate for getting off and is not included in the predetermined range from the current location in the process of step S035. The determined bus stop route is specified (step S051).

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 specifies the positions of all bus stops on the specified route using the bus stop information 113 (step S052).

  Next, using the bus stop information 113, the recommended route search unit 123 uses all the bus stops belonging to each route of the bus stop within a predetermined range (for example, within a radius of 500 m) from the current location excluding the bus stop candidate route. Is identified (step S053).

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the bus stop information 113 to determine whether any of the bus stops specified in step S053 is included in the predetermined range (for example, within a radius of 100 m) of the bus stop specified in step S052. Is determined (step S054). If it is determined that the bus stop in the predetermined range is not included (No in step S054), the recommended route search unit 123 determines in step S035 that the bus stop of the boarding candidate is not included in the predetermined range from the current location. The bus stop is excluded from the getting-off candidates (step S058), and the process proceeds to step S042. This is because there is no bus stop of another route that can be a transfer candidate in the vicinity of the bus stop on the route corresponding to the bus stop that is a candidate for getting off.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that any of the bus stops in the predetermined range is included (Yes in step S054), the recommended route search unit 123 shifts the processing to step S055.

  In step S055, the recommended route search unit 123 identifies each bus stop determined to be included in the predetermined range in step S054 as a transit stop candidate bus stop. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 sets a bus stop on the same route as a stop bus candidate bus stop as a transit destination candidate bus stop among the transit stop candidate bus stops, and is a bus stop within a predetermined range from the transit destination candidate bus stop. The bus stop on the same route as the boarding candidate bus stop is identified as the transit stop candidate bus stop.

  If there are a plurality of combinations of the bus stops of the connection source candidates and the connection destination candidates determined in step S054, the recommended route search unit 123 selects both bus stops of the set having the shortest distance between the bus stops of the connection source candidates and the connection destination candidates. Each is specified as a bus stop of a transfer source candidate and a transfer destination candidate.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates a walking route between the bus stops of the connection source candidate and the connection destination candidate by the same method as in step S004 (step S056). In addition, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates the distance and required time between both bus stops in the same manner as described above.

  Next, using the map information 112, the recommended route search unit 123 uses a bus stop on the same route as the transit stop candidate bus stop within a predetermined range (for example, a radius of 500 m) as the transit stop candidate bus stop. Specify (step S057).

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates a walking route to the bus stop of the boarding candidate by the same method as in step S007 described above (step S059 in FIG. 15). The recommended route search unit 123 also calculates the distance from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop and the required time in the same manner as described above.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the same method as in step S010 described above, the bus route from the boarding candidate bus stop to the connecting source candidate bus stop, and the bus route from the connecting destination candidate bus stop to the getting off candidate bus stop Are identified (step S060).

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates an estimated arrival time at the destination (step S061). Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the same method as in step S011 described above, the required time from the current location to the boarding candidate bus stop, the boarding time from the boarding candidate bus stop to the transit source candidate bus stop, The required time from the transit stop candidate bus stop to the transit destination candidate bus stop and the boarding time from the transit destination candidate bus stop to the exit candidate bus stop are calculated. In addition, the recommended route search unit 123 calculates an estimated arrival time at the destination using these.

  Next, the recommended route search unit 123 identifies the scheduled arrival time of the bus next to the boarding candidate bus stop and the scheduled arrival time of the bus next to the connecting destination candidate bus stop in the same manner as in step S012 described above. (Step S062).

  In specifying the scheduled arrival time of the bus next to the transfer destination candidate bus stop, the recommended route search unit 123 uses the time display information, for example, to calculate the boarding time from the transfer candidate bus stop to the transfer source candidate bus stop. calculate. Further, the recommended route search unit 123 gets off at the transit stop candidate bus stop based on the timetable information 115, the boarding time, and the required time from the transit stop candidate bus stop to the transit destination candidate bus stop, and then transits. The time difference until the next bus arrives at the previous candidate bus stop is calculated.

  In addition, when the recommended route search unit 123 performs the process of step S062, the process proceeds to step S042.

  In step S042 of FIG. 13, the recommended route search unit 123 generates display screen information of bus route candidates via the display information generation unit 122 and displays the information on the display. Specifically, the recommended route search unit 123 outputs an instruction to the display information generation unit 122 to generate bus route candidate display screen information including predetermined information.

  Upon receiving a display screen information generation instruction from the recommended route search unit 123, the display information generation unit 122 generates display screen information in a predetermined format in which predetermined information is arranged at a predetermined position. Specifically, the display information generation unit 122 determines whether or not the getting-off candidate bus stop closest to the destination is a route that passes through the connecting candidate bus stop.

  If it is determined that the bus stop of the candidate for getting off at the closest distance to the destination does not go through the bus stop of the connection candidate, the display area of the display is divided into two vertically, as in step S013, and the destination and the vicinity of the destination The bus route of the candidate to get off at the bus, the bus route that passes through the bus stop of the candidate to get off closest to the destination, the walking route from the bus stop to the destination, the required time from the bus stop to the destination and the destination The estimated arrival time to the ground is superimposed on the map, and this is temporarily stored in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the upper display area.

  In addition, the display information generation unit 122 superimposes a transfer mark on a map near a bus stop of a disembarkation candidate via a transfer destination candidate bus stop, and temporarily stores it in the storage unit 110 as information to be displayed in the upper display area.
