(Example 2 of provided information selection method)
Example 2 of the provided information selecting method will be described. The same vehicle 50 may be used by multiple users. For example, in the car sharing service, a plurality of users alternately use the same automobile 50 repeatedly at the same time. In the rental car service, the user who uses the same automobile 50 changes over time. In consideration of such circumstances, in the example 2 of the provided information selecting method, when the same vehicle 50 is used by a plurality of users, the provided information to be delivered to the user of the vehicle 50 is appropriately selected.

  An example 2 of the provided information selecting method according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a procedure of Example 2 of the provided information selecting method according to the present embodiment.

(Step S61) The provided information acquisition unit 32 monitors a change in the mobile phone number associated with the vehicle information including the same VIN stored in the registration information storage unit 72 of the integrated database device 70. The monitoring is performed by requesting the search receiving unit 73 of the integrated database device 70 from the provided information acquiring unit 32. In the example of FIG. 6, the mobile phone numbers associated with the vehicle information including the same VIN (VIN_B) include a mobile phone number (mobile telno_b) and a mobile phone number (mobile telno_d).

(Step S62) Based on the monitoring result, the provided information acquisition unit 32 determines whether the monitored vehicle information is vehicle information on a plurality of users. In the example of FIG. 6, it is determined whether or not vehicle information including the same VIN (VIN_B) is vehicle information regarding a plurality of users. This determination method will be described.

  In the case where there are a plurality of mobile phone numbers “mobile telno_b, mobile telno_d” associated with the vehicle information including the same VIN (VIN_B), “mobile telno_b” and “mobile telno_d” are generated within a certain period of time, for example, one week. When the vehicle 50 is associated with the vehicle information including the same VIN (VIN_B), the vehicle 50 is repeatedly replaced by a plurality of users (users of the mobile telno_b and users of the mobile telno_d) at the same time by the car sharing service. Since it is considered that the vehicle information is used, it is determined that the vehicle information including the VIN (VIN_B) is vehicle information regarding a plurality of users. This is because in the case of the car sharing service, it is assumed that the vehicle information is not reset even if the user of the automobile 50 changes.

  On the other hand, when there are a plurality of mobile phone numbers “mobile telno_b, mobile telno_d” associated with the vehicle information including the same VIN (VIN_B), “mobile telno_b” and “mobile telno_d” within a certain period, for example, one week. Is not associated with the vehicle information including the same VIN (VIN_B). For example, during the first week of the same month, only “mobile telno_b” is associated with the vehicle information including the VIN (VIN_B). In the next week, when only “mobile telno_d” is associated with the vehicle information including the VIN (VIN_B), the car 50 is first provided to the user of the mobile telno_b as time passes by the rental car service. Since it is considered that the user of the mobile phone telno_d is next used after the use, the vehicle information including the VIN (VIN_B) is used. It is determined not to be a vehicle information regarding a plurality of users. This is because in the case of the rental car service, it is assumed that the vehicle information is reset when the user of the automobile 50 changes.

(Step S63) Based on the vehicle information including VIN (VIN_B), the provided information acquisition unit 32 selects provided information corresponding to a plurality of users from a plurality of provided information in the provided information storage unit 35. An example of a method of selecting provided information corresponding to a plurality of users will be described. For example, provided information corresponding to a plurality of unspecified users is selected. Alternatively, provided information corresponding to a plurality of specific users (a mobile telno_b user and a mobile telno_d user) is selected.

(Step S64) Based on the vehicle information including VIN (VIN_B), the provided information acquisition unit 32 selects provided information corresponding to each user from a plurality of provided information in the provided information storage unit 35. In this case, based on the vehicle information including the VIN (VIN_B) associated with the mobile phone number (mobile telno_b), the user-specific provided information of the mobile telno_b is selected. Further, based on the vehicle information including the VIN (VIN_B) associated with the mobile phone number (mobile telno_d), the user-specific provided information of the mobile telno_d is selected.

  According to Example 2 of the provided information selecting method described above, when the same vehicle 50 is used by a plurality of users, the provided information to be distributed to the users of the vehicle 50 can be appropriately selected.

[Application example of information provision system]
Next, an application example of the information providing system 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. This application example realizes a customer transfer business model which is one application example of the information providing system 1 described above.

Is displayed. The provided information such as advertisements and coupons presented to the user by the terminal device 40 has a customer sending effect of guiding a person (customer) riding the customer sending tool (automobile) 50 to the shop or service facility of the advertiser. Spawn.

(Step S104) The vehicle interface 41 of the terminal device 40 transmits the address of the advertiser's store or service facility included in the provided information such as an advertisement or a coupon to the customer sending tool (automobile) 50. When the IVI device 52 of the customer sending tool (automobile) 50 receives the address of the advertiser's store or service facility through the terminal interface 521, the navigation function of the IVI device 52 causes the IVI device 52 to reach the address of the advertiser's store or service facility. Give guidance. As a result, the customer visits the advertiser's store or service facility using the customer transfer tool (automobile) 50. Customers can receive benefits such as discounts by presenting advertisements and coupons for provided information at the advertiser's store or service facility.

(Step S105) The advertiser pays the operator of the information providing system a performance reward in accordance with the result of the customer sending by the advertisement of the provided information or the coupon. The payment information of the performance reward is notified to the performance processing unit 34 of the information distribution device 30.

(Step S106) The result processing unit 34 executes a process of distributing the result reward indicated by the payment information of the result reward according to a predetermined result processing method. In the example of FIG. 12, the performance reward is distributed to the vehicle maker of the automobile 50 which is a customer sending tool.

  According to the above-described embodiment, since the terminal information and the vehicle information are stored in association with each other by the integrated database device 70, the terminal information referred to when selecting the provided information such as the coupon suitable for the occupant of the vehicle. And vehicle information can be acquired efficiently.
