<Overall configuration of future potential evaluation system 1>
First, the future potential evaluation system 1 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be outlined. FIG. 1 shows the overall configuration of the future potential evaluation system 1.
As shown in FIG. 1, the future potential evaluation system 1 includes an in-vehicle navigation device 10, a mobile terminal 20, a future potential evaluation device 30, a user terminal 40, and a communication network 50. It should be noted here that the future potential evaluation device 30 is described as being provided with an FCD (Floating Car Data) collecting means and a mobile parking data creation / updating means, but the present invention is not limited to this. Even if the FCD collecting means and the mobile parking data creation / updating means are configured as a device (for example, an FCD server) separate from the future potential evaluation device 30, and are communicably connected to the future potential evaluation device 30 directly or via a network. Good.
Each of these devices and each terminal is communicably connected to each other via the communication network 50. In the figure, the information transmitted and received by each of these devices and each terminal is also shown, but these information are merely examples. In the present embodiment, information other than those shown in the illustration may be transmitted and received.
The mobile object means a mobile body described later, a user who moves by carrying a mobile terminal 20, a user who moves, and the like. In this embodiment, as the moving object, for example, a moving body representing a vehicle 60a equipped with an in-vehicle navigation device 10 or a vehicle 60b on which a user carrying a mobile terminal 20 rides is illustrated.
In the figure, one set each of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the vehicle 60a and one set of the mobile terminal 20 and the vehicle 60b are shown, but the number of these sets is not particularly limited. Further, in the following description, when the vehicle 60a on which the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is mounted and the vehicle 60b on which the user using the mobile terminal 20 rides are described without distinction, the alphabet at the end is omitted. It is simply called "vehicle 60". Further, the vehicle 60 means, for example, a means for moving a four-wheeled vehicle, a three-wheeled vehicle, a two-wheeled vehicle, a bicycle, or the like.

The in-vehicle navigation device 10 is a device that provides navigation (route guidance) to a user who has boarded the vehicle 60a. The in-vehicle navigation device 10 provides route guidance from the current position to the destination based on the user's request. The vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 also has a function of positioning the position information of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 (that is, the position information of the vehicle 60a). The position information positioned by the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is appropriately transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30 together with the moving body identification information for identifying the vehicle 60a.
The in-vehicle navigation device 10 can be realized by a car navigation device installed on a moving vehicle 60a or a portable PND (Portable Navigation Device) simply installed on the moving vehicle 60a. In addition to this, the in-vehicle navigation device 10 can be realized by an electronic device such as a smartphone in which a predetermined application is installed.

The mobile terminal 20 is a mobile terminal used by a user who gets on the vehicle 60b. The mobile terminal 20 has a function of positioning the position information of the mobile terminal 20 (that is, the position information of the vehicle 60b), similarly to the in-vehicle navigation device 10 described above. The position information positioned by the mobile terminal 20 is appropriately transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30 together with the moving object identification information for identifying the vehicle 60b, similarly to the position information positioned by the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10. The moving body identification information may be acquired by the mobile terminal 20 from the vehicle 60b, or the identification information of the mobile terminal 20 itself may be regarded as the moving body identification information.
The mobile terminal 20 can be realized by a smartphone, a mobile phone, a tablet terminal, a laptop computer, or other portable electronic device on which a predetermined application is installed.
In the present embodiment, the detection of a visit to a facility of a mobile body exemplifies a case based on FCD which is position information of the mobile body collected from an in-vehicle navigation device 10 and a mobile terminal 20 or the like.

The future potential evaluation device 30 is a device that analyzes the future potential of a company or the like based on various information such as the position information of each vehicle 60 that is a moving body as a process peculiar to the present embodiment.
Therefore, the future potential evaluation device 30 includes map information 321 or the like that stores facility information including type information and location information of a plurality of facilities, and the position of a moving body collected from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 and the like. Based on the information FCD (Floating Car Data), for each facility 70 including business establishments of companies, parking information in which the moving body 60 is parked in the parking lot of the facility 70 (hereinafter, also referred to as "moving body parking data"). It can be calculated and created into a database (hereinafter, also referred to as "parking information database").
Here, the parking information (mobile parking data) of the facility 70 of the mobile body 60 corresponds to the facility ID related to the facility parking lot, and the date and time of entry into the facility parking lot of the mobile body 60 (“movement”). It also includes the "body entry time"), the date and time of exit from the facility parking lot of the mobile body 60 (also referred to as the "mobile body exit time"), the parking time of the mobile body 60, and the like. It is assumed that each moving body is identified by the identification ID of the moving body 60.

The future potential evaluation device 30 determines whether or not the moving body 60 parked in the parking lot of the facility 70 designated by the user corresponds to the visit of the facility 70 based on the moving body parking data. Specifically, for example, when the parking time of the vehicle 60 exceeds a preset first time, the user of the vehicle 60 is not a visitor of the facility 70, but an employee of the facility 70 or a person involved in construction work. By determining that, it may be determined whether or not the parking of the moving body 60 corresponds to the visit of the facility 70.
By doing so, the future potential evaluation device 30 can detect, for example, the mobile body 60 that has visited the facility 70 designated by the user during the designated predetermined period. In addition, the future potential evaluation device 30 can calculate the number of mobile objects 60 that have visited the facility 70 (that is, the number of visits that have visited the facility 70) within a designated predetermined period.

The future potential evaluation device 30 refers to the moving body parking data for the moving body that has visited the user-designated facility 70 designated by the user, and refers to the number of visits in the first predetermined period and the first predetermined period related to the user-designated facility 70. It is possible to calculate the number of visits in the second predetermined period different from the above, and create predictive index information regarding the future potential of the user-designated facility based on the comparison of these two visits. Here, the prediction index information is information indicating, for example, positive, negative, and neutral.
For example, by setting the first predetermined period as the period before or after the long vacation (for example, year-end and New Year holidays, Obon holiday, etc.) of the user-designated facility 70, and setting the second predetermined period as another period, the user-designated facility 70 Since the number of visits around greetings to companies, etc. is clarified, it is possible to predict the future potential of the companies, etc. The future potential evaluation device 30 compares the number of visits in the first predetermined period with the number of visits in the second predetermined period to predict index information (for example, positive, positive,) regarding the future potential of the facility 70 including the business establishment of the company. Information indicating negative and neutral) can be created.
Specifically, if the number of visits in the first predetermined period is equal to or greater than the number of visits in the second predetermined period, a positive determination can be made.
In addition, by setting the first prescribed period as the period before or after this year's long vacation and the second prescribed period as the period of the same period of the previous year, greetings to the business establishments of companies that are user-designated facilities 70 Since the difference in the number of visits between the previous year and this year becomes clear, it is possible to predict the future potential of the company.
Further, by calculating the number of visits to the facility 70, which is the business establishment of a plurality of companies belonging to a specific industry, it is possible to predict the future potential of the industry based on these.

The user terminal 40 is a terminal operated by the user, and is a terminal that acquires and inquires predictive index information regarding the future potential by communicating with the future potential evaluation device 30.

The future potential evaluation device 30 and the user terminal 40 described above can be realized by incorporating software for realizing the present embodiment into, for example, a server device or a personal computer.

The communication network 50 is realized by a network such as the Internet or a mobile phone network, or a network in which these are combined. Further, a LAN (Local Area Network) may be included in a part of the network (for example, between the future potential evaluation device 30 and the user terminal 40).
The above is the outline of the future potential evaluation system 1 according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
Next, the details of each device will be described.

<Functional block included in the in-vehicle navigation device 10>
First, the functional blocks included in the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG.
Here, the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 is supplied with power from the vehicle 60a, and is automatically activated when the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned on (starts the engine) by the user who gets on the vehicle 60a. Then, the in-vehicle navigation device 10 operates until the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned off (the engine is stopped) by the user who gets on the vehicle 60a.

As shown in FIG. 2, the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 includes a control unit 11, a storage unit 12, a communication unit 13, a sensor unit 14, a display unit 15, and an input unit 16.

The control unit 11 is composed of an arithmetic processing unit such as a microprocessor, and controls each unit constituting the in-vehicle navigation device 10. The details of the control unit 11 will be described later.

The storage unit 12 is composed of a semiconductor memory or the like, and is used to perform a control program called a firmware or an operating system, a program for performing route guidance processing, and a processing for transmitting position information to the future potential evaluation device 30. Each program such as the program of the above, and various other information such as map information are stored. In the figure, as the information stored by the storage unit 12, the position information 121 and the moving body identification information 122, which are information related to the transmission process of the position information, are shown.

The position information 121 is the position information (that is, the position information of the vehicle 60a) of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 positioned by the sensor unit 14 described later. The position information 121 includes not only the information indicating the positioned position but also the time when the positioning was performed.
Further, the moving body identification information 122 is information for identifying the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10. As the moving body identification information 122, for example, a serial number uniquely assigned to the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 can be used. In addition, in order for the communication unit 13 to connect to the communication network 50, which is a network such as a mobile phone network, the telephone number assigned to the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) inserted in the communication unit 13 is identified as a mobile phone. It can be used as information 122. In addition, the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) and license plate number uniquely assigned to the vehicle 60a can be used as the moving body identification information 122.

Each piece of information stored in these storage units 12 may be stored in the storage unit 12 in advance, or may be stored in advance from a server device (not shown) or the like connected to the communication network 50, if necessary. It may be configured to be downloaded as appropriate. Further, it may be appropriately modified according to the input of the user or the like.

The communication unit 13 has a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and the like, and has standards such as 3G (3rd Generation), LTE (Long Term Evolution), 4G (4th Generation), 5G (5th Generation) or Wi-Fi (registered trademark). In accordance with the above, wireless communication with another device (for example, a future potential evaluation device 30) via the communication network 50 via the communication network 50 is realized. In the communication unit 13, for example, the position information transmission unit 112 described later uses the position information 121 and the moving object identification information 122 stored in the storage unit 12 in the future potential evaluation device 30 (specifically, for example, the FCD described later). It is used to transmit to the collecting unit 310). However, the data transmitted / received between the communication unit 13 and the other device is not particularly limited, and information other than the position information 121 and the moving object identification information 122 may be transmitted / received.

The sensor unit 14 is composed of, for example, a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, or the like. The sensor unit 14 has a function as a position detecting means for detecting the position information, receives a GPS satellite signal by the GPS sensor, and positions the position information (latitude and longitude) of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10. Positioning by the sensor unit 14 is performed at predetermined time intervals (for example, 3 second intervals) as described above. The positioned position information is stored in the storage unit 12 as the position information 121.

The sensor unit 14 can further improve the positioning accuracy of the position information of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 based on the angular velocity measured by the gyro sensor and the acceleration sensor and the acceleration.
Further, when GPS communication becomes difficult or impossible, the sensor unit 14 uses AGPS (Assisted Global Positioning System) communication, and the position information of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is based on the base station information acquired from the communication unit 13. It is also possible to calculate.

The display unit 15 is composed of a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic electroluminescence panel. The display unit 15 displays an image in response to an instruction from the control unit 11. The information displayed by the display unit 15 includes, for example, the current position of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10, map information around the current position of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 read from the map information, a destination set by the user, and other vehicle-mounted information. Examples include the meeting information, route information, and various user interfaces notified from the navigation device 10.

The input unit 16 is composed of a physical switch called a numeric keypad, an input device (not shown) such as a touch panel provided on the display surface of the display unit 15. Operation input from the input unit 16, for example, by pressing the numeric keypad by the user and outputting a signal based on the touch of the touch panel to the control unit 11, it is possible to realize operations such as selection operation by the user and enlargement / reduction of the map. it can.

In addition, although not shown, a speaker, a microphone, or the like may be provided. The speaker outputs voice to the driver, and the microphone collects the voice and the like emitted by the driver.
By doing so, the information can be output by voice from the speaker, and various selections and instructions by the driver input by voice through the microphone can be input to the control unit 11 by the voice recognition technology.

Next, the details of the control unit 11 will be described. The control unit 11 is composed of a microprocessor having a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a RAM (Random access memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), an I / O (Input / output), and the like. The CPU executes each program read from the ROM or the storage unit 12, reads information from the RAM, the ROM, and the storage unit 12 at the time of execution, and writes the information to the RAM and the storage unit 12. Signals are exchanged with the communication unit 13, the sensor unit 14, the display unit 15, and the input unit 16. Then, in this way, the processing in the present embodiment is realized by the cooperation of the hardware and the software (program).

The control unit 11 includes a route guidance unit 111 and a position information transmission unit 112 as functional blocks.

The route guidance unit 111 is a part that performs route guidance processing to a destination such as a facility input or selected by the user.
The route guidance process to the destination is equivalent to the route guidance process in a general car navigation system. That is, the route guidance unit 111 generates a map to the destination based on the map information (not shown) stored in the storage unit 12, and the vehicle-mounted navigation system positioned on this map by the sensor unit 14. Route guidance can be performed by superimposing the current position of the device 10, the position of the destination, and the route information to the destination, and displaying this on the display unit 15. In this case, further, the sound for route guidance may be output from the speaker (not shown). In addition, information on road congestion status, weather information, and the like may be acquired by communication by the communication unit 13, and the acquired information may be used for route guidance processing.
Since the route guidance process to the destination is well known to those skilled in the art, further detailed description thereof will be omitted. Further, since the map information for performing the route guidance processing is also well known to those skilled in the art, further detailed description and illustration will be omitted.

The position information transmitting unit 112 transmits the position information 121 and the moving object identification information 122 stored in the storage unit 12 to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310) by wireless communication using the communication unit 13. This is the part to be sent.
When the position information transmitting unit 112 transmits the position information 121 and the moving object identification information 122 to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310), the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned on (the engine is started) by the user who got on the vehicle 60a. ), The operation is periodically performed from the time when the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 is automatically started until the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned off (the engine is stopped). For example, each time the sensor unit 14 performs positioning at a predetermined time interval (for example, every 3 seconds), transmission is performed in real time. Further, instead of transmitting to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310) in real time, a plurality of them are collectively (for example, position information 121 updated at 3 second intervals in 3 minutes and moving object identification information). You may send them all at once (collectively with 122). That is, so-called burst transmission may be performed. The length of the predetermined time interval and whether to transmit in real time or burst can be arbitrarily set according to the environment to which the present embodiment is applied and the like.

By performing real-time transmission and burst transmission in this way, the position information transmission unit 112 provides the position information 121 for identifying the movement route of the vehicle 60a positioned by the sensor unit 14 and the moving body identification information 122. , Is transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30.

In this case, the position specified by the position information 121 determined immediately after the ignition switch is turned on (the engine is started) and the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is automatically started is used as the first vehicle position, that is, the departure position to evaluate the future potential. It can be transmitted to the device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310). Further, the position specified by the position information 121 determined immediately before the ignition switch is turned off (engine stopped) is transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310) as the final vehicle position, that is, the parking position. Can be done.

In this case, after adding the start information indicating that the position information 121 represents the departure position and the stop information indicating the position information 121 indicating the parking position to the position information 121, the future potential evaluation device 30 ( It may be transmitted to the FCD collecting unit 310). For example, the flag indicating that it is start information may be set to 1 for transmission, or the flag indicating that it is stop information may be set to 1 for transmission. Regarding the position information 121 (that is, the parking position) positioned immediately before the ignition switch is turned off (engine stopped), when the ignition switch is turned on (engine is started) and the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is started again. May be sent to.

Further, even in the case of burst transmission, if the route guidance unit 111 determines that the vehicle 60a has arrived at the destination (for example, a certain facility), the position information transmission unit 112 transmits in real time. It is good to switch to do. In this way, after arriving at a certain facility, the ignition switch is turned off (engine stopped) before the parking position position information 121 is transmitted, and the location information 121 of the destination such as the facility has a future potential. It is possible to prevent a situation in which transmission is not performed to the evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310).

<Functional block included in mobile terminal 20>
Next, the functional block included in the mobile terminal 20 will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG.
Here, the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 described above receives power from the vehicle 60a, but the mobile terminal 20 receives power from its own battery (not shown). However, the mobile terminal 20 may be supplied with power from a cigar socket or the like of the vehicle 60b in order to charge the battery.

As shown in FIG. 3, the mobile terminal 20 includes a control unit 21, a storage unit 22, a communication unit 23, a sensor unit 24, a display unit 25, an input unit 26, and a short-range communication unit 27. Consists of.
Here, the control unit 21, the storage unit 22, the communication unit 23, the sensor unit 24, the display unit 25, and the input unit 26 have the same functions as the functional blocks of the same name included in the in-vehicle navigation device 10 described above. Have. That is, by substituting the wording of the "vehicle-mounted navigation device 10" and the wording of the "mobile terminal 20" in the above-mentioned description of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10, each functional block of the mobile terminal 20 will be described. Is omitted.

On the other hand, the mobile terminal 20 is different from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 in that it includes the short-range communication unit 27 and the like, and this difference will be described below.
The short-range communication unit 27 performs non-contact short-range communication conforming to standards such as NFC (Near Field Communication) and Bluetooth (registered trademark), or wired short-range communication via a USB (Universal Serial Bus) cable or the like. It is a part for.
On the other hand, the vehicle 60b includes a short-range communication unit for communicating with the short-range communication unit 27. For example, the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) of the vehicle 60b includes a short-range communication unit.
The case where the mobile terminal 20 can communicate with the ECU by short-range communication is a case where the mobile terminal 20 exists in the vehicle 60b. In this case, the position information positioned by the sensor unit 24 of the mobile terminal 20 corresponds to the position information of the vehicle 60b.

Therefore, the mobile terminal 20 activates the position information transmission unit 212 while the mobile terminal 20 can perform short-range communication with the ECU via the short-range communication unit 27. Then, the activated position information transmitting unit 212 identifies the moving body and the position information 221 for identifying the moving route of the vehicle 60b positioned by the sensor unit 24 in the same manner as the position information transmitting unit 112 of the in-vehicle navigation device 10. The information 222 and the information 222 are transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30.

For example, when the user possesses the mobile terminal 20 and gets on the vehicle 60b and turns on the activation switch of the vehicle 60b such as the ignition switch, the vehicle 60b and the mobile terminal 20 are connected (paired) and the mobile terminal 20 is connected. The positioned position information 221 and the moving object identification information 222 are transmitted from the mobile terminal 20 to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310). In this case, the position specified by the position information 121 determined immediately after the pairing of the vehicle 60b and the mobile terminal 20 is transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310) as the first vehicle position, that is, the starting position. be able to.

Further, when the start switch of the vehicle 60b such as the ignition switch is turned off, the pairing between the vehicle 60b and the mobile terminal 20 is released. In this case, the position specified by the position information 121 determined immediately before the release can be transmitted to the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD collecting unit 310) as the final vehicle position, that is, the parking position.
In this case, the point may be transmitted in real time, the point may be burst transmission, the point that burst transmission may be switched to real-time transmission when it is determined that the parking position has been reached, and the departure position. Alternatively, the same as the position information transmitting unit 112, the starting information and the stopping information indicating that the parking position may be added, and the parking position may be transmitted at the time of restarting.

When the vehicle 60b has a function of positioning the position information, the future potential evaluation device 30 (FCD) uses the position information positioned by the vehicle 60b as the position information 121 instead of the position information positioned by the sensor unit 24. It may be transmitted to the collecting unit 310). In this case, the sensor unit 24 may be omitted from the mobile terminal 20.

The map information 321 may be stored in the storage unit 32 in advance, or may be appropriately downloaded from a server device (not shown) or the like connected to the communication network 50 as needed. .. Further, it may be appropriately modified according to the input of the user or the like.

The calendar information 322 includes, for example, long-term holiday information for each facility in addition to the calendar information for the past several years. By doing so, as will be described later, the visit detection unit 312 or the characteristic index calculation unit 313 will perform the first predetermined period and the first predetermined period corresponding to the facility based on the long holiday of the calendar information of the facility specified by the user. 2 A predetermined period can be set.
Further, as will be described later, even when predicting the future performance of a specific industry, the visit detection unit 312 or the characteristic index calculation unit 313 uses the long-term holiday information of the calendar information for each facility belonging to the specific industry. Based on this, the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period of each facility can be set.

The parking information database 323 is constructed based on the position information 121 and the position information 221 received from each of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20, and the mobile body identification information 122 and the mobile body identification information 222. A database that contains data. The parking information database 323 is constructed by the parking information database update unit 311 described later. The details of the parking information database 323 will be described later when the parking information database update unit 311 is described. In the following description, when the position information 121 and the position information 221 are described without distinction, the reference numerals are omitted and they are referred to as "position information". Similarly, when the moving body identification information 122 and the moving body identification information 222 are described without distinction, the reference numerals are omitted and they are referred to as "moving body identification information".

The communication unit 33 has a DSP or the like, and performs wireless communication with other devices via the communication network 50 in accordance with communication standards such as 3G, LTE, 4G, 5G or Wi-Fi (registered trademark). Realize. The communication unit 33 is used, for example, to receive the position information and the moving body identification information transmitted from each of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20.
However, there is no particular limitation on the data transmitted / received between the communication unit 33 and the other device, and information other than these information may be transmitted / received.

Next, the details of the control unit 31 will be described. The control unit 31 is composed of a microprocessor having a CPU, RAM, ROM, I / O, and the like. The CPU executes each program read from the ROM or the storage unit 32, reads information from the RAM, ROM, and the storage unit 32 at the time of execution, writes information to the RAM and the storage unit 32, and writes the information to the RAM and the storage unit 32. Sends and receives signals to and from the communication unit 33, the display unit 34, and the input unit 35. Then, in this way, the processing in the present embodiment is realized by the cooperation of the hardware and the software (program).

The control unit 31 includes an FCD collection unit 310, a parking information database update unit 311, a visit detection unit 312, a characteristic index calculation unit 313, a prediction condition reception unit 314, an evaluation unit 315, and an evaluation information provision unit 316 as functional blocks.

As described above, the FCD collecting unit 310 receives and collects the FCD which is the position information of the moving body collected from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 and the like. Based on the position information received from each of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20, the FCD collecting unit 310 obtains the departure position, the departure position information including the departure time, the arrival position, and the arrival time for each identification information of the vehicle 60. Travel history data having arrival position information and movement route information as attributes may be created and updated according to the movement order.
Here, the "departure position information" in the travel history data is information for specifying the position and departure time when the user departs from the vehicle 60. Further, the arrival position information in the travel history data is information for specifying the position where the user arrived by the vehicle 60 and the departure time.
FCD collection is a technique known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, WO2019 / 082826, WO2019 / 065349, etc.), and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The parking information database update unit 311 is a part that constructs the parking information database 323 and updates the parking information database 323 as appropriate based on the travel history data collected by the FCD collection unit 310. An example of the data structure of the parking information database 323 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the data structure of the parking information database 323.

<Parking information database 323>
As described above, the parking information database 323 includes mobile parking data at each facility 70. Specifically, the parking information database 323 includes "facility identification information" for identifying a facility including a business entity of a company visited by the vehicle 60. Further, the parking information database 323 includes "moving object identification information" received from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 of the vehicle 60 parked in the parking lot of the facility including the business entity of the company corresponding to the facility identification information. .. Further, the parking information database 323 parks based on the "location information" received from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 of the vehicle 60 parked in the parking lot of the facility including the business entity of the company corresponding to the facility identification information. Includes "parking date and time information" and "movement route information" specified by the information database update unit 311.
Then, the parking information database update unit 311 constructs and updates the parking information database 323 by storing each of these pieces of information in the corresponding fields in the parking information database 323.

The "facility identification information" in the parking information database 323 is information for identifying a facility including a business entity of a company in which the vehicle 60 is parked, and is acquired from the map information 321 described above. As the facility identification information, for example, numbers and alphabets uniquely assigned to the facility including the business entity of the company, the facility name, the telephone number of the facility, and the like can be used.

The "moving object identification information" in the parking information database 323 is information for identifying the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 which are the transmission sources of the position information as described above. That is, it is information for identifying the vehicle 60 corresponding to the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20.

The "parking date / time information" in the parking information database 323 is information related to the date and time when the vehicle 60 corresponding to the moving object identification information has moved. Specifically, for example, the parking day (YYYY / MM / DD) of the parking lot of the moving body 60 related to the facility, the entrance time (hh / mm) of arrival at the parking lot of the moving body 60, and the movement. The exit time (hh / mm) of leaving the parking lot of the body 60 related to the facility, the parking time of the moving body 60, and the like may be included.

The "movement route information" in the parking information database 323 is based on, for example, location information that changes discretely with time received during the movement until the arrival at the facility and during the movement after the departure from the facility. It may include information indicating the movement route specified by the user. In the environment in which the present embodiment is implemented, when the accuracy of the position information is low, the parking information database update unit 311 specifies the movement route by performing map matching that compares the map information 321 with the position information. You may do so. However, when the accuracy of the position information is high, it is not always necessary to perform map matching.

The parking information database update unit 311 is based on the received position information and moving object identification information each time the transmission of the position information and the moving object identification information is started and then ended from any of the in-vehicle navigation devices 10 or the mobile terminal 20. The parking information database 323 is updated by storing each of the above-mentioned information in the new field.

Further, when constructing and updating the parking information database 323, the parking information database updating unit 311 needs to specify which vehicle 60 is parked in the parking lot of which facility.
Therefore, the parking information database update unit 311 identifies the position where the user parked in the vehicle 60 from the received position information. For example, as described above, if the position information includes information indicating the parking position, the parked position is specified by this information. If the position information does not include information indicating the parking position, for example, the position corresponding to the last received position information from the start to the end of the transmission of the position information, or a constant position. A position that does not change with time can also be regarded as a parking position.

Then, the parking information database update unit 311 compares the specified parking position with the position of each facility (and the position of the parking lot associated with the facility) included in the map information 321 and determines which of the specified parking position. When the positions of the facilities (and the positions of the parking lots associated with the facilities) match, it is determined that the vehicle 60 has parked in the matching facilities. Then, it is determined that the position information corresponding to the parking position on the outbound route has been received before it is received. The degree of "matching" between the parking position and the facility position may be arbitrarily determined. For example, when the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 or the mobile terminal 20 can measure the position information with high accuracy, the range for determining the match may be narrowed. On the other hand, when the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 or the mobile terminal 20 cannot measure the position information with such high accuracy, the range for determining the match may be widened. That is, even if the positions are slightly deviated, it may be determined as a match.
The user of the future potential evaluation device 30 may modify the parking information database 323 as appropriate.

<Visit detection unit 312>
The visit detection unit 312 is based on the parking information database 323 and based on the prediction conditions related to the facility 70 and the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period specified by the user via the prediction condition reception unit 314 described later. , Detects whether or not the moving body 60 parked in the parking lot of the facility 70 during the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period corresponds to the visit of the facility 70. Specifically, for example, when the parking time of the vehicle 60 exceeds a preset first time, the user of the vehicle 60 is not a visitor of the facility 70, but an employee of the facility 70 or a person involved in construction work. By determining that, it may be detected whether or not the parking of the moving body 60 corresponds to the visit of the facility 70.
By doing so, the visit detection unit 312 can detect the mobile body 60 that has visited the designated facility 70 during the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period designated by the user.
As described above, when the first predetermined period is a long holiday, the visit detection unit 312 determines the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period corresponding to the facility based on the long holiday of the calendar information of the facility 70. Can be set.
The default values may be set in advance for the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period.

<Characteristic index calculation unit 313>
The characteristic index calculation unit 313 includes a facility including the number of mobiles 60 that visited the facility 70 (that is, the number of visits that visited the facility 70) within the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period specified by the user. Calculate the characteristic index.
Here, the facility characteristic index means various indexes that can be calculated based on the parking information of the moving body 60 that visited the facility 70. Specifically, the facility characteristic index includes, for example, the number of visits of the mobile body that visited the facility 70 during the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period specified by the user.
As will be described later, the facility characteristic index is an index for evaluating the future potential of the facility 70 including the business entity of the company. The facility characteristic index is not limited to the above-mentioned index. Any characteristic information that can be calculated based on the parking information of the moving body 60 that visited the facility 70 may be adopted.
7a and 7b are diagrams showing an example of the number of moving objects (number of visits) that visited the facility 70 during the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period.
FIG. 7a shows the period before the long vacation (year-end and New Year holidays) as the first predetermined period, the average second predetermined period different from the first predetermined period as the second predetermined period, and the number of visits in each period. ..
In addition, FIG. 7b shows the period before the long vacation (year-end and New Year holidays) as the first predetermined period, the period of the same period of the previous year as the second predetermined period, and the number of visits in each period.

<Forecast condition reception department 314>
The prediction condition reception unit 314 receives the conditions related to the facility characteristic index calculated by the characteristic index calculation unit 313 from, for example, the user terminal 40 via the communication network 50. The prediction condition reception unit 314 may generate a user interface for receiving input of a condition for specifying the facility characteristic index from the user, and display the generated user interface on the user terminal 40. By doing so, the user can refer to the user interface and input the prediction condition.

Here, the forecast condition includes, for example, designation of a facility including a business entity of a company for which a forecast index information regarding future potential is calculated. Further, the designation of the period, the designation of the information related to the moving body 60, etc., which are the bases of the facility characteristic index, may be included.
For example, the user specifies the facility A to be evaluated via the user terminal 40, for example, the first predetermined period (the period before the year-end and New Year holidays) based on the calendar information 322, and the second predetermined period (the vacation). By specifying the average business period excluding the period before and after, and inputting the conditions for the number of visits of the moving object, the characteristic index calculation unit 313 visited the user-designated facility A as described above. For the body, the number of visits in the first predetermined period and the number of visits in the second predetermined period different from the first predetermined period can be calculated by referring to the moving body parking data. By doing so, the evaluation unit 315 relates to the future potential of the user-designated facility A based on the comparison of these two facility characteristic indexes (here, the number of visits in the first predetermined period and the number of visits in the second predetermined period). Predictive index information can be created.

Further, the user may specify a specific industry as an evaluation target instead of designating the specific facility A. In that case, the visit detection unit 312 extracts a plurality of facilities belonging to the specific industry, the characteristic index calculation unit 313 calculates the facility characteristic index for each facility, and based on the facility characteristic index calculated for each facility. , The characteristic index (for example, average, maximum value, minimum value, median value, sum, etc.) related to a specific industry may be calculated.

<Evaluation unit 315>
The evaluation unit 315 is a business of a company that is the facility 70 based on the facility characteristic index in the first predetermined period and the facility characteristic index in the second predetermined period of the user-designated facility 70 calculated by the characteristic index calculation unit 313. Create predictive index information about the future of the body. Here, the prediction index information is, for example, information indicating positive, negative, and neutral.
For example, as shown in FIG. 7a, the first predetermined period is the period before or after the long holiday (for example, year-end and New Year holidays, Obon holiday, etc.) of the facility 70, and the second predetermined period is the long holiday. In the case of an average business period excluding the period before and after the day, the evaluation unit 315 presets the number of visits to the facility 70 in the first predetermined period to the number of visits to the facility 70 in the second predetermined period. A positive determination may be made when the ratio is equal to or greater than the first predetermined ratio. On the contrary, a negative determination may be made when the number of visits to the facility 70 in the first predetermined period is equal to or less than the preset second predetermined ratio of the number of visits to the facility 70 in the second predetermined period. .. If neither of the above applies, a neutral determination may be made.
By doing so, by comparing the number of visits before and after the long vacation with the number of visits other than that, for example, the number of visits around greetings to the company becomes clear due to the difference between the two, so it is objective and observable. The future potential of companies can be predicted using only the data.
Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 7b, the first predetermined period is the period before or after the long holiday (for example, year-end and New Year holidays, Obon holiday, etc.) of the facility 70, and the second predetermined period is. In the case of the same period as the first predetermined period in the past, the evaluation unit 315 determines that the number of visits to the facility 70 in the first predetermined period is preset to the number of visits to the facility 70 in the second predetermined period. A positive determination may be made when the ratio is equal to or higher than a predetermined ratio. On the contrary, a negative determination may be made when the number of visits to the facility 70 in the first predetermined period is equal to or less than the preset fourth predetermined ratio of the number of visits to the facility 70 in the second predetermined period. .. If neither of the above applies, a neutral determination may be made.
By doing so, for example, the number of visits around greetings to companies during the same period before and after the long vacation of this year and the previous year can be compared, so the future of companies, etc. can be compared using only objective and observable data. Gender can be predicted.
The first predetermined period is not limited to the period before or after the long holiday of the facility 70 (for example, year-end and New Year holidays, Obon holidays, etc.). The first predetermined period may be set to a period different from the period before or after the long holiday of the facility 70 (for example, year-end and New Year holidays, Obon holidays, etc.). In this case, it is preferable that the second predetermined period is the same as the past first predetermined period. In this case, the evaluation unit 315 determines positive when the number of visits to the facility 70 in the first predetermined period is equal to or greater than the preset fifth predetermined ratio of the number of visits to the facility 70 in the second predetermined period. You may do. On the contrary, a negative determination may be made when the number of visits to the facility 70 in the first predetermined period is equal to or less than the preset sixth predetermined ratio of the number of visits to the facility 70 in the second predetermined period. .. If neither of the above applies, a neutral determination may be made.
As a result, for example, since the number of visits around greetings to companies in the same period of this year and the previous year can be compared, the future potential of companies can be predicted using only objective and observable data. ..
In the above description, it is preferable that the first predetermined ratio, the third predetermined ratio, and the fifth predetermined ratio, which are the basis of the positive determination, are each larger than 1. Further, the second predetermined ratio, the fourth predetermined ratio, and the sixth predetermined ratio, which are the basis of the negative determination, are preferably about 1 (or 1 or less), respectively. These ratios can be appropriately set by the user.

The case where the evaluation unit 315 creates the forecast index information regarding the future potential of the designated facility 70 has been described above. As described above, the evaluation unit 315 has described the case where the forecast index information regarding the future potential of the specific industry (specific industry) is created. It is also possible to create information.
The processing in this case will be briefly described.
Hereinafter, the user-designated facility designated by the user is defined as a plurality of facilities 70 (j) (1 ≦ j ≦ M) belonging to a specific industry. Here, M is the number of user-designated facilities 70, which is a business entity of a company belonging to a specific industry designated by the user.
First, the visit detection unit 312 visits the facility 70 (j) in the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period specified by the user for each facility 70 (j) belonging to the specific industry designated by the user. Detects body 60.
The characteristic index calculation unit 313 determines the number of mobiles 60 that visited the 70 (j) within the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period (that is, the facility 70 (j)) for each facility 70 (j). The facility characteristic index (j) including the number of visits) is calculated.
Hereinafter, the number of mobile bodies 60 that visited the facility 70 (j) during the first predetermined period is _{indicated by N 1} (j), and the number of mobile bodies 60 that visited the facility 70 (j) during the second predetermined period is N _2. It is shown by (j).
The evaluation unit 315 compares the first set {N ₁ (j): 1 ≦ j ≦ M} and the second set {N ₂ (j): 1 ≦ j ≦ M} to specify a specific industry (specific industry). It is possible to create forecast index information regarding the future potential of.
When comparing the first set {N ₁ (j): 1 ≦ j ≦ M} and the second set {N ₂ (j): 1 ≦ j ≦ M}, as described above, for example, the first set. The average value of one set and the average value of the second set may be compared. Further, the total value of the first set and the total value of the second set may be compared. Further, the present invention is not limited to this, and any statistical value (for example, intermediate value, maximum value, minimum value, etc.) for comparing sets may be used.
By doing so, the future potential of a specific industry (specific industry) can be predicted using only objective and observable data.
The prediction condition reception unit 314 may accept a specific industry to which the user-designated facility belongs, instead of accepting a plurality of user-designated facilities from the user. In this case, the prediction condition reception unit 314 has a correspondence table (not shown) in which the plurality of facilities 70 (j) belonging to the specific industry are associated with the preset industry and the plurality of facilities 70 (j). ) May be used for selection.

<Evaluation Information Providing Department 316>
The evaluation information providing unit 316 provides the user terminal 40 (future evaluation inquiry unit 411) with predictive index information regarding the future potential of the designated facility 70 or the designated specific industry determined by the evaluation unit 315.
The evaluation information providing unit 316 provides predictive index information (for example, positive, negative, neutral) together with a graph showing the number of visits in the first predetermined period and the second predetermined period, as shown in FIG. 7A or FIG. 7B, for example. You may.

<Operation of this embodiment>
Finally, the operation of the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 8 and 9. Here, FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an operation at the time of collecting location information and updating the parking information database 323, which is performed by the FCD collecting unit 310 and the parking information database updating unit 311. Further, FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a basic operation when creating prediction index information regarding the future, which is performed by the visit detection unit 312, the characteristic index calculation unit 313, the prediction condition reception unit 314, and the evaluation unit 315. ..

First, the operation when the parking information database 323 is updated by the position information collected from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 will be described with reference to FIG.
It is determined whether or not the position information transmitting unit 112 starts transmitting the position information (step S11). Here, as described above, transmission is started when the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned on. If the ignition switch remains off (No in step S11), transmission by the position information transmitting unit 112 is not started. On the other hand, when the ignition switch is turned on (Yes in step S11), the process proceeds to step S12.

In step S12, the sensor unit 14 acquires position information by positioning the position of the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 (step S12).
The position information transmission unit 112 acquires position information from the sensor unit 14, and transmits the acquired position information to the FCD collection unit 310 in real time or burst transmission at a predetermined cycle (step S13).

Next, it is determined whether or not the position information transmission unit 112 ends the transmission of the position information (step S14). As described above, the transmission ends when the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned off. If the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a remains on (No in step S14), the positioning in step S12 and the transmission in step S13 are repeated.

On the other hand, when the ignition switch of the vehicle 60a is turned off (Yes in step S14), the process proceeds to step S15.

In step S15, the parking information database update unit 311 of the future potential evaluation device 30 updates the parking information database 323 based on the position information transmitted by repeating steps S12 and S13 (step S15).
