  The above summary of the invention does not enumerate all the necessary features of the present invention, and sub-combinations of these feature groups can also be the invention.

  According to the present invention, since the requester who can acquire the target person information is set asynchronously with the setting of the target person while the target person is set by an instruction from the requester terminal, the target person information is sent to the requester. It can be provided flexibly.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described through embodiments of the invention. However, the following embodiments do not limit the claimed invention, and all combinations of features described in the embodiments are included. It is not necessarily essential for the solution of the invention.

  1 to 5 show an outline of a flow in which a requester who requests provision of user information receives provision of target person information via the user information provision apparatus 20 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The user information providing apparatus 20 transmits target person information, which is information related to the target person who owns the target person terminal 14, to the requester terminal 12 owned by the requester 1 who requests the target person information. The user information providing apparatus 20 includes a target person list 200 for recording target person identification information for identifying a target person having target person information desired by the requester 1, and a request from a requester permitted to provide the target person information. A permission list 204 for recording person identification information. The requester terminal 12 and the target person terminal 14 are communication terminals having a communication function, and are, for example, mobile phone terminals.

  The user information providing apparatus 20 according to the present embodiment sets the target person according to the instruction from the requester terminal 12, while setting the requester capable of acquiring the target person information asynchronously with the setting of the target person. The objective is to provide target information flexibly to the requester.

  First, refer to FIG. The requester 1 (for example, Mr. A) who requests acquisition of the target person information applies to the user information providing apparatus 20 for an acquisition service for the target person information in order to acquire the target person information at the requester terminal 12. (S1). Thereby, the requester 1 can acquire the right to search the target person information of the target person who has the target terminal 14 in the requester terminal 12 (S2). When the requester 1 acquires the right, the user information providing apparatus 20 first creates an empty target person list 200 for the requester 1. Then, in response to a request from the requester 1, the user information providing apparatus 20 registers a target person for whom the requester 1 desires to acquire target person information in the target person list 200.

  In addition, when the requester 1 applies for a service that controls access from the target person terminal 14 to the permission list 204 for registering a requester who can acquire target person information, the user information providing apparatus 20 requests The target person permission list 204 is generated in response to the request of the person 1. Then, in response to the request from the requester 1, the user information providing apparatus 20 registers a requester who can acquire target person information in the permission list 204. The requester 1 visits a service shop equipped with a terminal accessible to the user information providing device 20 and applies for a contract, mails the contract to the service shop, or applies for a telephone call. The right can be obtained by applying from the service provider's website. The requester 1 may register the target person in the target person list 200 and register the requester in the permission list 204 by giving an instruction to an operator such as a service shop.

  Here, the target person information is personal information of the target person, for example, target person position information indicating a position where the target person terminal 14 exists. Further, the target person information is a history of terminal identification information (for example, a telephone number) for identifying a communication terminal of a communication partner with which the target person terminal 14 has established a communication connection, and / or contents of mail transmitted / received by the target person terminal 14. There may be. When the target person terminal 14 has a prepaid charge settlement function, the target person information is a balance of the amount of money. When the target person terminal 14 has a post-pay charge charge settlement function, the target person information is It may be the total amount paid and / or the amount per payment. Further, the target person information may be the attendance status of the target person in the school, the grade, and the like when the target person goes to school. Further, the target person information may be a deposit balance of the target person's bank account.

  The requester 1 transmits the target person identification information for identifying the target person from the mobile phone terminal (for example, the requester terminal 12) of the requester 1 to the user information providing device 20. It may be requested to register the target person identification information in the list 200 (S3). For example, the requester 1 inputs the telephone number of the target person terminal 14 to the requester terminal 12. The requester terminal 12 transmits the telephone number of the target person terminal 14 input by the requester 1 to the user information providing apparatus 20. Then, the user information providing apparatus 20 may record the telephone number received from the requester terminal 12 in the target person list 200 for the requester 1. In such a case, the requester 1 may transmit the nickname of the subject together with the telephone number to the user information providing apparatus 20. The user information providing apparatus 20 records the nickname (for example, Mr. B) of the subject in the subject list 200 in association with the telephone number of the subject terminal 14.

  Next, the user information providing apparatus 20 notifies the subject terminal 14 that the telephone number of the subject terminal 14 has been registered in the subject list 200 (S4). For example, the user information providing apparatus 20 notifies the target person terminal 14 that the telephone number of the target person terminal 14 is registered in the target person list 200 using mail (for example, a short message service (SMS)). Here, when the requester 1 has not applied for a service for controlling access from the target person terminal 14 to the permission list 204 for registering the requester who can acquire the target person information, the target person The requester 1 is permitted to provide the target person information.

  For example, when the target person determines that the requester 1 may refer to the target person information of the target person, the user information providing apparatus 20 is permitted to provide the target person information from the target person terminal 14. The information shown is transmitted (S5). On the other hand, when the subject determines that the requester 1 does not allow the requester 1 to refer to the subject information, the subject terminal 14 does not perform any particular process. The target person separately registers the requester identification information (for example, the telephone number of the requester terminal 12) in the permission list 204 regardless of whether or not the mail is received from the user information providing device 20. Also good.

  Here, when the subject determines that the requester 1 may refer to the subject information of the subject, the subject further selects one response method selected from a plurality of predetermined response methods as the user information. It can be transmitted to the providing device 20. A plurality of response methods include, for example, a response method for notifying the target person of an acquisition request for the target person information and then asking the target person for consent / non-consent for the acquisition of the target person information, and a request for acquiring the target person information from the target person. After the notification, the response method of sending the target person information without asking the target person for consent, and the target person information without sending the target person the acquisition request of the target person information and without requesting the target person for consent It may be a response method to be transmitted.

  The user information providing apparatus 20 stores requester identification information (for example, the telephone number of the requester terminal 12) for identifying the requester terminal 12 of the requester 1 in the permission list 204 according to the information received from the target person terminal 14. Record. In such a case, the subject can transmit the requester's nickname together with the telephone number of the requester terminal 12 to the user information providing apparatus 20. The user information providing device 20 records the nickname (for example, Mr. A) of the target person in the permission list 204 in association with the telephone number of the requester terminal 12.

  Next, FIGS. 2 to 4 show an outline of a flow in which a requester receives provision of subject information according to each of response methods set by the subject.

  FIG. 2 shows an outline of a flow in a case where a response method for requesting consent / non-agreement for acquisition of the subject information is set for the subject each time after the subject information is notified of the subject information acquisition request. In the following description, an example in which the target person position information indicating the position where the target person terminal 14 exists is the target person information will be described. First, the requester terminal 12 causes the requester 1 to select a target person (for example, Mr. B) from the target person list 200. Then, the requester terminal 12 transmits to the user information providing device 20 a search request indicating that the requester 1 wants to search for target person position information of the target person selected (S6). When the user information providing apparatus 20 receives the search request, the user information providing apparatus 20 determines whether requester information for identifying the requester who has transmitted the search request is registered in the permission list 204 of the subject person B. (S7).

  If the requester M is registered in the permission list 204, the user information providing apparatus 20 further determines the response method recorded in the permission list 204 (S7). Then, the user information providing apparatus 20 transmits the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 to the requester terminal 12 according to the response method recorded in the permission list 204. That is, first, the user information providing apparatus 20 notifies the external positioning system 30 of a search request indicating that the requester 1 requests acquisition of the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 (S8). Then, the positioning system 30 notifies the target person terminal 14 of a search request indicating that the requester 1 requests acquisition of the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 (S9). The subject person terminal 14 notifies the subject person B that the search request has been received. Then, the target person determines whether or not to respond to the request request from the requester 1 (S10).

  When the target person decides to respond to the search request of the requester 1, the target person terminal 14 transmits information indicating the response to the search request to the positioning system 30 (S11). Then, the positioning system 30 acquires target person position information indicating the position where the target person terminal 14 exists, and transmits it to the user information providing apparatus 20 (S12). Note that the user information providing apparatus 20 may notify the target terminal 14 of a search request without using the positioning system 30. In such a case, the target person terminal 14 notifies the target person that the search request has been received. When the target person decides to respond to the search request, the target person terminal 14 transmits information indicating that the search request is satisfied without using the positioning system 30 to the user information providing apparatus 20. Then, the user information providing apparatus 20 may request the positioning system 30 to acquire the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 and cause the positioning system 30 to acquire the target person position information.

  Here, the external positioning system 30 is, for example, a positioning system 30 that uses assist GPS (AGPS). The user information providing apparatus 20 that has acquired the position information of the subject terminal 14 from the positioning system 30 acquires map data indicating a map in a predetermined range including the position indicated by the position information. Subsequently, the user information providing device 20 generates composite map data including the position indicated by the position information received from the positioning system 30 in the acquired map data. Then, when the requester terminal 12 requests a search result (S13), the user information providing device 20 transmits the generated synthetic map data to the requester terminal 12 (S14). Thereby, the requester terminal 12 can confirm the position where the target person terminal 14 exists, that is, the position where the target person B exists on the map.

  On the other hand, when the requester M is not registered in the permission list 204, the user information providing apparatus 20 has a predetermined time elapsed from when a search result request is received from the requester terminal 12, Information indicating that the target person position information could not be acquired is transmitted to the requester terminal 12 (S14). Further, even when the target person decides not to respond to the request request from the requester 1, the user information providing apparatus 20 responds to the requester terminal 12 in response to the reception of the search result request from the requester terminal 12. Information indicating that the person position information could not be acquired is transmitted (S14).

  FIG. 3 shows an outline of a flow in a case where a response method is set in which a target person information acquisition request is transmitted to the target person without requesting consent from the target person. In the following description, an example in which the target person position information indicating the position where the target person terminal 14 exists is the target person information will be described. The step of S16 performs substantially the same operation as the step of S6 in the above description of FIG. When the user information providing apparatus 20 receives a search request from the requester terminal 12, is requester information for identifying the requester who has transmitted the search request registered in the permission list 204 of Mr. B who is the target person? It is determined whether or not (S17). When the requester A is registered in the permission list 204, the user information providing apparatus 20 further determines the response method recorded in the permission list 204 (S17). Then, the user information providing apparatus 20 transmits the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 to the requester terminal 12 according to the response method recorded in the permission list 204.

  That is, first, the user information providing device 20 sends a search request indicating that the requester 1 is requesting acquisition of the target person position information of the target terminal 14 via the external positioning system 30. (S18). The subject person terminal 14 notifies the subject person B that the search request has been received. The user information providing apparatus 20 notifies the target person terminal 14 of the search request via the positioning system 30 and requests the positioning system 30 to acquire the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 (S19). The positioning system 30 acquires target person position information (S20, S21). Then, the positioning system 30 transmits the acquired target person position information to the user information providing device 20 (S22). The user information providing device 20 generates composite map data based on the position information received from the positioning system 30 in the same manner as described with reference to FIG. Then, when the requester terminal 12 requests a search result (S23), the user information providing apparatus 20 transmits the generated synthetic map data to the requester terminal 12 (S24).

  When the target terminal 14 receives a search request from the user information providing apparatus 20 via the positioning system 30 (S18), the target terminal 14 performs the step of S21 without passing through the steps of S19 and S20. May be executed. That is, the target person terminal 14 may transmit the target person position information to the positioning system 30 when a search request is received from the user information providing apparatus 20 via the positioning system 30.

  FIG. 4 shows an outline of a flow in a case where a response method for transmitting the target person information without setting the target person's acquisition request for the target person information and without requesting the consent of the target person is set. In the following description, an example in which the target person position information indicating the position where the target person terminal 14 exists is the target person information will be described. The step of S24 performs substantially the same operation as the step of S6 in the above description of FIG. When the user information providing apparatus 20 receives a search request from the requester terminal 12, is requester information for identifying the requester who has transmitted the search request registered in the permission list 204 of Mr. B who is the target person? It is determined whether or not (S25). If the requester M is registered in the permission list 204, the user information providing apparatus 20 further determines the response method recorded in the permission list 204 (S25). Then, the user information providing apparatus 20 acquires the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 according to the response method recorded in the permission list 204.

  That is, the user information providing apparatus 20 requests the positioning system 30 to acquire the target person position information of the target person terminal 14 (S26). The positioning system 30 acquires target person position information in response to a request from the user information providing apparatus 20 (S27, S28). Then, the positioning system 30 transmits the acquired target person position information to the user information providing apparatus 20 (S29). The user information providing device 20 generates composite map data based on the position information received from the positioning system 30 in the same manner as described with reference to FIG. When the user information providing apparatus 20 receives a search result request from the requester terminal 12 (S30), the user information providing apparatus 20 transmits the generated composite map data to the requester terminal 12 (S31).

  FIG. 5 shows an outline of a flow for controlling access to the permission list 204 from the target person terminal 14. First, the requester 1 (for example, Mr. A) who requests acquisition of the target person information sends the target person to the user information providing apparatus 20 in order to manage the setting of the permission list 204 of the target person terminal 14 desired to be managed. A service for managing the permission list 204 of the terminal 14 is applied (S40). And the user information provision apparatus 20 produces | generates the target person list 200 (A) for the requester 1 according to the request of the requester 1 (S40a). Further, the user information providing apparatus 20 generates the permission list 204 of the target person (for example, Mr. B) designated by the requester 1 (S40b). In such a case, the user information providing apparatus 20 requests the requester's requester in accordance with the request of the requester 1 so that the requester can acquire the target person information of Mr. B who is the target person in the permission list 204. The identification information and the acquisition method (for example, setting c) of the target person information are registered. The requester 1 may register the target person identification information in the target person list 200 (A) for the requester 1 through the requester terminal 12 in the same manner as described above with reference to FIG.

  Thereby, the requester 1 can acquire the right that the subject person terminal 14 prohibits the change of the contents of the permission list 204 (S41). In other words, the user information providing apparatus 20 responds to the request of the requester 1 by applying for the service of the requester 1. Number) is registered in the lock list 282. The requester 1 may register a plurality of target person identification information in the lock list 282. The user information providing device 20 prohibits the target person terminal 14 possessed by the target person identified by the target person identification information registered in the lock list 282 from changing the contents of the permission list 204 of the target person. Furthermore, when the lock list 282 for Mr. B who is the target person is generated in response to the request from the requester 1, the user information providing apparatus 20 receives other requesters (for example, the requester 2) other than the requester 1. However, it is prohibited to generate the lock list 282 for Mr. B who is the target person. That is, requester identification information of one requester is registered in the lock list 282 for one target person.

  And the requester 1 registers the person who has the authority which can acquire the subject information of the subject who uses the subject person terminal 14 to the permission list 204 using the requester terminal 12 (S42). For example, the requester 1 registers the requester identification information of the requester 1 in the permission list 204 using the requester terminal 12. Further, the requester 1 can also register in the permission list 204 other requesters who may be allowed to acquire the subject information, for example, requester identification information of Mr. C who is the requester 2. In such a case, the requester 1 can also register the response method described in FIGS. 2 to 4 in the permission list 204. On the other hand, the contents of the permission list 204 can only be referred to from the target person terminal 14 (S43).

  On the other hand, the requester 2 (Mr. C) who requests acquisition of the target person information is directed to the user terminal 14 for the user information providing device 20 in order to manage the setting of the permission list 204 of the target terminal 14 that is desired to be managed. Apply for a service that can manage the permission list 204 (S44). However, in the present embodiment, the user information providing apparatus 20 has already generated the permission list 204 in response to the request from the requester 1. Therefore, the user information providing apparatus 20 does not generate the permission list 204 in response to the request from the requester 2 (S44b). However, the user information providing apparatus 20 generates the target person list 200 (C) for the requester 2 (S44a).

  Then, the user information providing apparatus 20 prohibits the requester terminal 16 from changing the contents of the permission list 204 generated by the user information providing apparatus 20 in response to the request from the requester 1. However, when the requester identification information of the requester 2 and the acquisition method of the target person information are registered in the permission list 204 by the request from the requester terminal 12 of the requester 1, the user information providing apparatus 20 The target person information is provided to the requester terminal 16 according to the acquisition method. Thereby, although the requester 2 cannot change the setting content of the permission list 204, the requester terminal 16 can refer to the target person information. Note that the target person terminal 14 refers to the permission list 204 so that the requester 1 has the authority to change the setting of the permission list 204, and the requester 2 does not have the authority. That the user information can be referred to.

  For example, the target person terminal 14 displays the contents of the permission list 204 on the display unit of the target person terminal 14 according to the operation of the target person. Specifically, the target person terminal 14 displays image data indicating that the requester 1 has authority to change the setting of the permission list 204 together with text data indicating the requester 1 who is Mr. A. On the other hand, although the target person terminal 14 displays the text data indicating Mr. B who is the requester 2, the requester 2 does not have the authority to change the setting of the permission list 204. The displayed image data is not displayed together with the text data indicating Mr. B. In the present embodiment, since only one person is permitted to have the authority, a plurality of image data indicating that the authority is not displayed.

As a result, for example, the requester 1 can be prevented from referring to the permission list 204 of the target person, so that the target person can know to whom the target person is allowed to provide the target person information. Can be easily prevented. In addition, the content of the permission list 204 is not changed according to the change of the content of the target person list 200, and the content of the target person list 200 is not changed according to the change of the content of the permission list 204. Management of the addition of the list 200 and the permission list 204 becomes easy.

  FIG. 7 shows an example of the data structure of the target person list 200 according to the present embodiment. The target person list 200 records target person identification information in association with the requester identification information. The requester identification information is, for example, the telephone number of the requester terminal 12 used by the requester. The requester identification information may be identification information that uniquely identifies the requester, such as a mail address of the requester. The subject identification information is a telephone number of the subject terminal 14 used by the subject. Similarly to the requester identification information, the target person identification information may be the email address of the target person. Further, the target person identification information may record the nickname of the target person in association with identification information that can uniquely identify the target person such as a telephone number.

  For example, the target person list 200 records a telephone number 7100 and a telephone number 6200 in association with the telephone number 6000. The target person list 200 records the nickname (for example, “C-chan”) of the target person identified by the telephone number 7100 in association with the telephone number 7100. Similarly, the target person list 200 records the nickname (for example, “dad”) of the target person identified by the telephone number 6200 in association with the telephone number 6200.

  Further, the target person list 200 records a telephone number 6000 and a telephone number 6200 in association with the telephone number 7100. The target person list 200 records the nickname (for example, “mom”) of the target person identified by the telephone number 6000 in association with the telephone number 6000. Similarly, the target person list 200 records the nickname of the target person identified by the telephone number 6200 in association with the telephone number 6200.

  Thereby, the requester terminal 12 can notify the requester of the target person identification information recorded in the target person list 200 as a nickname recorded in the target person list 200. Therefore, as compared with the case where the requester is notified of the telephone number as the target person identification information, the requester can easily grasp at a glance who is recorded as the target person in the target person list 200. .

  FIG. 8 shows an example of a plurality of response methods according to this embodiment. The registration notification unit 224 notifies the requester terminal 12 of a plurality of predetermined response methods for the request information together with the registration notification.

In the response method 500 (method a), the registration notification unit 224 notifies the target person terminal 14 that a request for acquiring the target person position information is received from the requester, and the target person is provided with the target person position information. It is a method of requesting consent / non-consent of whether or not it may be provided.

  Further, in the response method 510 (method b), the registration notification unit 224 notifies the target person terminal 14 that an acquisition request for the target person position information is received from the requester. This is a method of providing subject position information to the requester without asking the requester for consent. Further, in the response method 520 (method c), the registration notifying unit 224 does not notify the target person terminal 14 that the request for acquiring the target person position information is received from the requester, and the target person is notified of the target person position. This is a method of providing target person position information to a requester without seeking consent to provide the information to the requester. Note that the response method is not limited to the above, and other response methods, for example, a method of forcibly providing the target person position information to the requester regardless of the setting of the target person may be defined.

  FIG. 9 shows an example of the data structure of the permission list 204 according to this embodiment. The permission list 204 records requester identification information of a requester who is permitted to acquire the target person information of the target person in association with the target person identification information. The permission list 204 further records a response method in association with each requester identification information. For example, the permission list 204 stores a telephone number 6000 and a telephone number 6200 in association with the telephone number 7100. The permission list 204 records the method c in association with the telephone number 6000. In addition, the permission list 204 records the method a in association with the telephone number 6200. Similarly, the permission list 204 records the telephone number 8500 in association with the telephone number 8000. The permission list 204 records the method b in association with the telephone number 8500.

  FIG. 10 shows an example of the data structure of the lock list 282 according to this embodiment. The lock list 282 records the subject identification information in association with the requester identification information. For example, the lock list 282 records a telephone number 7100 and a telephone number 6200 in association with the telephone number 6000. The requester identified by the telephone number 6000 can record a plurality of target person identification information in the lock list 282. Thereby, each of the target person terminals 14 identified by the telephone number 7100 and the telephone number 6200 is prohibited from changing the contents of the own permission list 204, and the change of the contents of the permission list 204 is performed by the telephone number 6000. Only the identified requester terminal 12 can do it.

  FIG. 11 shows an example of the flow of processing in the user information providing apparatus 20 according to the present embodiment. First, the requester terminal 12 requests transmission of a target person list. The target list request receiving unit 260 receives the request. Then, the target person list request receiving unit 260 supplies the request to the target person list transmitting unit 262. When receiving the request, the target person list transmission unit 262 displays the target person identification information recorded in the target person list 200 of the requester 1 who uses the requester terminal 12 that has transmitted the request. 12 (S1000). The requester terminal 12 displays the target person identification information transmitted by the target person list transmission unit 262 on a display unit included in the requester terminal 12, for example.

  Subsequently, the requester terminal 12 uses the target person identification information selected by the requester 1 from the target person identification information displayed as a list on the display unit, and requests information indicating an acquisition request for target person position information of the target person. At the same time, it is transmitted to the user information providing apparatus 20. The request information receiving unit 226 receives the target person identification information and the request information from the requester terminal 12 (S1005). The request information receiving unit 226 supplies the received subject identification information and the requester identification information of the requester who transmitted the subject identification information to the collation determining unit 210. The collation determining unit 210 determines whether the requester identification information received from the request information receiving unit 226 is registered in the permission list 204 (S1010). When the collation determination unit 210 determines that the requester identification information is not registered in the permission list 204 (S1010: No), the acquisition impossibility notification unit 228 acquires the target person position information in the requester terminal 12. Notify that it is not possible (S1060).

  On the other hand, when the collation determining unit 210 determines that the requester identification information is registered in the permission list 204 (S1010: Yes), the collation determining unit 210 associates any response with the requester identification information. It is further determined whether the method is associated (S1020). When the collation determination unit 210 determines that the method a is associated with the requester identification information (S1020: a), the registration notification unit 224 indicates that the target person terminal 14 exists in the target person terminal 14. A positioning request indicating that the requester 1 is requested to acquire the target person position information indicating the current position is notified to the target terminal 14 via the positioning system 30 (S1030).

  When receiving the notification via the positioning system 30, the target person terminal 14 causes the target person using the target person terminal 14 to select whether or not to agree with the positioning request (S1050). When the target person does not agree with the positioning request (S1050: No), the acquisition impossibility notification unit 228 receives information indicating that the positioning request is not agreed from the positioning system 30, and receives the target person at the requester terminal 12. It is notified that the position information cannot be acquired (S1060). On the other hand, when the target person agrees to the positioning request (S1050: Yes), the target person information acquisition unit 230 determines the position information of the target person, that is, the position information indicating the position where the target terminal 14 exists. The system 30 is made to acquire (S1070).

  When the matching determination unit 210 determines that the method b is associated with the requester identification information (S1020: b), the registration notification unit 224 sends the positioning request to the target terminal via the positioning system 30. 14 (S1040). Then, the target person information acquisition unit 230 causes the positioning system 30 to acquire position information indicating the position where the target person terminal 14 exists (S1070). When the collation determination unit 210 determines that the method c is associated with the requester identification information (S1020: c), the target person information acquisition unit 230 determines the position where the target person terminal 14 exists. The positioning system 30 is made to acquire the position information shown (S1070). Subsequently, the map information acquisition unit 232 acquires map information indicating a map in a predetermined range including the position indicated by the position information acquired by the subject information acquisition unit 230 by the positioning system 30 (S1075).

  Next, the map generation unit 234 generates composite map information including the position where the target person terminal 14 indicated by the position information exists in the map indicated by the map information acquired by the map information acquisition unit 232 (S1080). . And the subject person information notification part 240 transmits the synthetic | combination map information which the map production | generation part 234 produced | generated to the requester terminal 12, when the acquisition request | requirement of object person position information is received from the requester terminal 12 (S1085). Thereby, in the requester terminal 12, the requester 1 can refer to the position where the target person terminal 14 exists in a state displayed on the map. For example, a predetermined mark is superimposed and displayed at a position where the target person terminal 14 exists on the map.

  FIG. 12 shows an example of a display screen on the requester terminal 12 according to the present embodiment. The user information providing apparatus 20 registers the target person identification information of the target person (for example, Mr. B) for whom the requester 1 requests acquisition in the target person list 200. The user information providing apparatus 20 may register the target person information in the target person list 200 in response to the request transmitted from the requester terminal 12. The requester terminal 12 responds to the inquiry from the notification permission / rejection transmission section by first registering “Mr. B. This service can be used when the other party has a GPS device. Do you have? "Is displayed. When the requester 1 selects “Yes” (S1200), the requester terminal 12 sends, for example, “a registration notification for allowing the positioning to be permitted to Mr. B” in response to the inquiry from the notification permission / inhibition transmission unit. The registration notification will be sent to the sender using your phone number. " On the other hand, when the requester 1 selects “No” or “I don't know” (S1205), the requester terminal 12 may, for example, “In this service, the location can be confirmed when the other party has a GPS device. If you are not a GPS machine, you will not be able to confirm the location. ”Is displayed.

  When the requester 1 selects “Yes” (S1210), the requester terminal 12 displays “The registration of Mr. B has been completed. Registration notification has been sent to Mr. B” and the acceptance information. Is transmitted to the user information providing apparatus 20. The notification permission / rejection receiving unit receives the acceptance information and supplies the registration notification unit 224 with information indicating that the acceptance information has been received. Then, the registration notification unit 224 transmits a mail, which is a registration notification in which requester identification information (for example, the telephone number of the requester terminal 12) is described in the transmission source, to the target user terminal 14 via the positioning system 30.

  In addition, when the requester 1 selects “No” (S1215), the requester terminal 12 has completed the registration of “Mr. B. In this service, the positioning is performed when the other party sets the positioning permission. You can see the results. We encourage you to contact the other party to confirm the settings. " Thereby, although the target person identification information is registered in the target person list 200, the registration notification is not transmitted to the target person terminal 14 via the positioning system 30. That is, when the requester's telephone number is not described in the registration notification, the registration notification is not transmitted to the target person terminal 14 via the positioning system 30. Therefore, since the subject person does not receive a registration notification if the person who requests the registration does not reveal his / her identity, the subject person is not bothered by a registration request from an unknown third party.

  FIG. 13 shows an example of the flow of processing in the user information providing apparatus 20 according to this embodiment. First, the requester terminal 12 transmits an acquisition request for the target person identification information to the user information providing apparatus 20 to notify the target person of the list of target person identification information (S100). The subject list transmission unit 262 transmits the subject identification information recorded in the subject list 200 to the requester terminal 12 in response to the subject list request receiving unit 260 receiving the acquisition request (S105). ). The requester terminal 12 displays the received target person identification information as a list and causes the requester 1 to select the target person identification information. Then, the requester terminal 12 transmits the target person identification information selected by the requester 1 and the request for acquiring the target person position information to the user information providing apparatus 20 (S110).

  The request information receiving unit 226 supplies the received subject identification information and the requester identification information of the requester who transmitted the subject identification information to the collation determining unit 210.

The requester terminal 12 that has received the retry response notifies the requester 1 that the search result should be requested again after a predetermined time has elapsed (S128).

  Then, the target person information acquisition unit 230 transmits a search request for requesting the positioning system 30 to acquire the position of the target terminal 14 (S125). The positioning system 30 acquires position information indicating the position where the target person terminal 14 is present in response to the search request (S130, S135). Subsequently, the positioning system 30 transmits the acquired position information to the user information providing apparatus 20 (S140). The subject information acquisition unit 230 receives the position information. Then, the subject information acquisition unit 230 supplies the received position information to the map information acquisition unit 232. The map information acquisition unit 232 transmits a map request indicating a request for map information indicating a map in a predetermined range including the position indicated by the received position information to the external map database 40 (S145).

  The map information acquisition unit 232 acquires the map information transmitted by the map database 40 in response to the map request (S150). The map information acquisition unit 232 supplies the acquired map information to the map generation unit 234. The map generation unit 234 generates a composite map in which the position indicated by the position information acquired by the target person information acquisition unit 230 is superimposed on the map indicated by the map information acquired by the map information acquisition unit 232 (S155). Here, when a request for a search result is received from the requester terminal 12 (S160), the target person information notification unit 240 transmits the composite map information indicating the composite map generated by the map generation unit 234 to the requester terminal 12. (S165). The requester terminal 12 notifies the requester 1 of the composite map indicated by the received composite map information (S170).
