  FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a configuration of an embodiment of a data processing device according to an embodiment. As the data processing device 100, for example, a device such as a personal computer (personal computer) or a server is used. The data processing device 100 includes an operation member 101, a connection IF 102, a control device 103, a recording device 104, and a display device 105.

  The operation member 101 includes various devices operated by an operator of the data processing device 100, such as a keyboard and a mouse.

  The connection IF 102 is an interface for connecting the data processing apparatus 100 to a communication line such as a LAN or the Internet. For example, a wired communication module for connecting to the communication line by wire, or a wireless connection to the communication line. A wireless communication module or the like is used.

  The control device 103 includes a CPU, a memory, and other peripheral circuits, and controls the entire data processing device 100. The memory constituting the control device 103 is a volatile memory such as SDRAM, for example. This memory is used as a work memory for the CPU to expand the program when the program is executed and a buffer memory for temporarily recording data. For example, data read through the connection IF 102 is temporarily recorded in the buffer memory. In the present embodiment, processing for data recording and data retrieval, which will be described later, is executed by the control device 103.

  The recording device 104 is a recording device for recording various data stored by the data processing device 100, data of a program to be executed by the control device 103, and the like, for example, HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or SSD (Solid State). Drive) or the like is used. The program data recorded in the recording device 104 is provided by being recorded on a recording medium such as a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, or provided via a network, and records the program data acquired by the user. By installing in the device 104, the control device 103 can execute the program.

  The display device 105 is, for example, a liquid crystal monitor, and displays various display data output from the control device 103.

  In data processing apparatus 100 in the present embodiment, control apparatus 103 is associated with area specifying information for uniquely specifying a plurality of areas indicating a predetermined range set on a map, and the area specifying information. A data set composed of related information is set, and data corresponding to a set of region specifying information and related information is recorded in the recording device 104 for the data set. Further, from a search request terminal (not shown) connected via a communication line, the search request terminal receives the current position information and the related information, receives a data search request, and based on the received current position information, The area specifying information of the area to which the current position of the search requesting terminal belongs is specified, and the data recorded for the data set composed of the specified area specifying information and the received related information is read from the recording device 104 and searched. Send to requesting terminal. Hereinafter, processing in the data processing apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment will be described in detail.

  The control device 103 sets a data set based on an instruction from the user of the data processing device 100 and records it in the recording device 104. As described above, the data set includes area specifying information for uniquely specifying a plurality of areas indicating a predetermined range set on the map, and related information associated with the area specifying information. . The area is arbitrarily set by a user of the data processing apparatus 100 as a closed area that can specify a range on the map, such as a rectangle or a circle. For example, FIG. 2 shows an example in which areas 2b, 2c, 2d, and 2e are set on the map 2a.

  In FIG. 2, roads and the like on the map are represented by solid lines, and regions are represented by broken lines. Note that the areas can be set so that the ranges on the map partially overlap like the areas 2b and 2c, or can be set so that the ranges do not overlap like the areas 2d and 2e. . In addition, in FIG. 2, a range where no area is set is included on the map, but a plurality of areas are set so as to cover the entire map so that each point on the map belongs to one of the areas. You may make it do. How to set the area may be arbitrarily determined by the user according to the purpose of use of the data set described later.

  The control device 103 assigns area specifying information for uniquely specifying each area to each of the set areas. For example, a unique ID (hereinafter referred to as “area ID”) may be attached to each area.

  In addition, the user defines related information associated with each area. What information is defined as related information depends on what data the user wants to record in the data set. For example, assuming a case where a user provides a service for delivering an advertisement to an advertisement space on a WEB page displayed on a search request terminal, information for specifying the advertisement space may be defined as related information. In this case, the user can record information for specifying the advertisement data displayed in the advertisement space with respect to the data set including the area ID and the information for specifying the advertisement space.

Specifically, when X, Y, and Z are variables, the area ID is polyX, the information for specifying the advertisement space is publisherY, and the information for specifying the advertisement data is contentsZ, the following formula (1) Record data in the data set in the format shown in.
publisherY: polygonX = contentsZ (1)

  By defining such a data set and recording data, the user can use the map space specified by the region ID and the advertisement space on the WEB page specified by the information for specifying the advertisement space. Can be recorded as the range on the map and the contentsZ of the advertisement data highly relevant to the advertisement space.

  For this reason, when a WEB page is browsed on the search request terminal in a data search process described later, a control device (not shown) of the search request terminal specifies an advertisement space arranged on the WEB page. Information (publisherY) and the current position information of the search request terminal are transmitted to the data processing device 100, and a search for advertisement data to be displayed on the advertisement space is requested, the current position of the search request terminal and the WEB page It is possible to acquire advertisement data that is highly relevant to the advertisement space arranged in and to be displayed in the advertisement space.

  In the data processing device 100, the control device 103 identifies the region ID (polygonX) of the region including the current location of the search request terminal based on the current location information received from the search request terminal, and identifies the identified polygonX and the search request terminal. ContentZ recorded in the data set composed of publisherY received from the. The read contentsZ and the corresponding advertisement data for distribution are recorded in the recording device 104 in association with each other in advance, and the control apparatus 103 reads out the advertisement data for distribution corresponding to the read contentsZ from the recording device, Send to search request terminal. As a result, the control device 103 can distribute the contents of the WEB page being browsed at the search request terminal and the advertisement data highly relevant to the point where the WEB page is being browsed.

  For example, when publisherY = Y1, a case will be described in which advertisement data is recorded for each group shown in FIG. The region 2b shown in FIG. 2 is set to polygonX = X1, the region 2c is set to polygonX = X2, the region 2d is set to polygonX = X3, and the region 2e is set to polygonX = X4. Further, advertisement data represented by contentsZ = Z1 is distributed to the search request terminal whose current position is in the area 2b, and contentsZ = Z2 is distributed to the search request terminal whose current position is in the area 2c. The search request terminal that distributes the advertisement data represented by contentsZ = Z3 to the search request terminal whose current position is in the area 2d and distributes the advertisement data represented by For the search request terminal having the current position within the range where the areas 2b and 2c intersect, the advertisement data represented by contentsZ = Z5 is distributed. Shall be distributed. In this case, when these data sets are expressed using the equation (1), the following equations (2) to (6) are obtained.

Y1: X1 = Z1 (2)
Y1: X2 = Z2 (3)
Y1: X3 = Z3 (4)
Y1: X4 = Z4 (5)
Y1: X1: X2 = Z5 (6)

  When the data set is recorded as shown in equations (2) to (6), the area for specifying the advertisement space from the search request terminal is publisherY = Y1, and the current position information is polygonX = X1 When the position information is received and the search request is received, the control device 103 reads from the recording device 104 the data set of the formula (2) in which publisherY: polygonX is Y1: X1 and stores the data set in the data set. Based on the recorded contentsZ = Z1, the advertisement data for distribution is specified and distributed to the search request terminal.

  When receiving the search request by receiving the position information in the area where the information for specifying the advertisement space from the search requesting terminal is publisherY = Y1 and the current position information is polygonX = X2, the control device 103 From the recording device 104, the publisherY: polygonX reads the data set of the formula (3) where Y1: X2 is specified, the advertisement data for distribution is specified based on the contentsZ = Z2 recorded in the data set, and the search request terminal Delivered to.

  When receiving the search request by receiving the position information in the area where the information for specifying the advertisement space from the search request terminal is publisherY = Y1 and the current position information is polygonX = X3, From the recording device 104, the publisherY: polygonX is Y1: X3, the data set of the formula (4) is read, the advertisement data for distribution is specified based on the contentsZ = Z3 recorded in the data set, and the search request terminal Delivered to.

  When receiving the search request by receiving the position information in the area where the information for specifying the advertisement space from the search request terminal is publisherY = Y1 and the current position information is polygonX = X4, From the recording device 104, the publisherY: polygonX is Y1: X4, the data set of the formula (5) is read, the advertisement data for distribution is specified based on the contentsZ = Z4 recorded in the data set, and the search request terminal Delivered to.

  When a search request is received by receiving position information in an area where publisherY = Y1 and current position information are polyX = X1 and X2 for specifying the advertisement space from the search request terminal, the control device 103 reads the data set of the formula (6) in which publisherY: polygonX is Y1: X1: X2 from the recording device 104, and specifies the advertisement data for distribution based on the contentsZ = Z5 recorded in the data set And distributed to the search request terminal.

  As described above, by using the above-described data set for advertisement distribution, advertisement data corresponding to the current position of the user can be distributed to the user of the search request terminal, thereby improving the advertising effect. be able to. For example, if an advertisement for a restaurant near the user's current location is distributed on a WEB page viewed by the user, the user may be interested in the advertisement rather than distributing an advertisement for a restaurant in an unrelated place. Can increase the sex.

  In addition, since the data set includes information for specifying the advertisement space, it is possible to distribute an advertisement along the contents of the WEB page being browsed by the user. For example, a music related facility existing in or near a region on a map specified by polygonX with respect to publisherY of an advertising space arranged on a music WEB site and polygonX of a region on a map, for example, Record advertisements for live houses and CD shops. If it does in this way, the advertisement regarding the music related facility near the present position can be distributed to the user who browsed the music WEB site, and the possibility that the user is interested in the advertisement can be further increased.

  FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing the flow of data set recording processing in the present embodiment. The processing shown in FIG. 3 is executed by the control device 103 as a program that is activated when the operation member 101 is operated by the user of the data processing device 100 and a data set is set.

  In step S10, the control device 103 sets the above-described data set based on an instruction from the user. Then, it progresses to step S20.

  In step S20, the control device 103 records data on the data set set in step S10 based on an instruction from the user, and records the data set on which the data is recorded in the recording device 104. Thereafter, the process ends.

  FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the flow of data search processing in the present embodiment. The process shown in FIG. 4 shows the flow of the data search process for performing advertisement distribution to the search request terminal as described above as an example of the data search process. The process shown in FIG. 4 specifies the current location information and information (publisherY) for specifying the advertisement space on the WEB page displayed on the search request terminal from the search request terminal described above. When the received search request is received, it is executed by the control device 103 as a program to be started.

  In step S110, the control device 103 specifies an area including the current position of the search request terminal based on the current position information received from the search request terminal, and specifies an area ID (polygonX) of the specified area. Then, it progresses to step S120.

  In step S <b> 120, the control device 103 specifies a data set composed of the specified polyX and the publisherY received from the search request terminal, and reads it from the recording device 104. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S130.

  In step S130, the control apparatus 103 reads the data (contentsZ) recorded in the data set read in step S130, and specifies the advertisement data corresponding to the read data as distribution advertisement data. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S140.

  In step S140, the control device 103 reads the specified distribution advertisement data from the recording device 104 and distributes it to the search request terminal that is the search request source. Thereafter, the process ends.

According to the embodiment described above, the following operational effects can be obtained.
(1) The control device 103 is a data set including area specifying information for uniquely specifying a plurality of areas indicating a predetermined range set on a map, and related information associated with the area specifying information. And data corresponding to a set of region specifying information and related information is recorded for the set data set. As a result, the user can set an arbitrary area on the map and record data in a data set composed of the area and related information. In addition, when performing a data search based on a request from the search request terminal, it is only necessary to read data recorded in a data set in which the region specifying information received from the search request terminal matches the related information. Search can be performed at high speed.

(2) The areas can be set so that the ranges on the map partially overlap like the areas 2b and 2c shown in FIG. 2, or the ranges do not overlap like the areas 2d and 2e. It can also be set to. Thereby, the user can set an area in an arbitrary range on the map. In addition, when the search request terminal specifies a plurality of area specifying information based on the current position, such as when the search request terminal is within a range where a plurality of areas intersect, each of the plurality of area specifying information And data recorded for a plurality of data sets composed of related information are read from the recording device 104. As a result, data corresponding to the point can be transmitted to the search request terminal at the point where the plurality of areas overlap.

(3) The control device 103 receives the current position information and related information of the search request terminal from the search request terminal, receives a data search request, and based on the received current position information, the current position of the search request terminal The area specifying information of the area to which the file belongs is specified, the data recorded for the data set composed of the specified area specifying information and the received related information is read from the recording device 104, and the read data is requested to be searched. Added to the terminal. This makes it possible to transmit data according to the current position of the search request terminal.

-Modification-
The data processing apparatus according to the above-described embodiment can be modified as follows.
(1) In the above-described embodiment, the areas can be set so that the ranges on the map partially overlap like the areas 2b and 2c shown in FIG. 2, and the current positions are the areas 2b and 2c. An example has been described in which the data set represented by the equation (6) is recorded in advance in order to distribute the advertisement data represented by contentsZ = Z5 to the search request terminals within the range where the However, the data set for dealing with a point where a plurality of ranges on the map overlap is not recorded in advance, and the control device 103 receives a search request from a user having that point as the current position. You may make it identify the advertisement data for delivery based on the data set set with respect to each area | region.

  For example, for the search request terminal whose current position is within the range where the areas 2b and 2c intersect, the control device 103 and the data set represented by the expression (2) and the data represented by the expression (3) By calculating the logical sum of the sets, the advertisement data for distribution is specified as advertisement data represented by Z1 or Z2. And the control apparatus 103 should just select either data based on the distribution rate set beforehand among the specified Z1 and Z2, and should just distribute the advertisement data represented by the selected data. Each distribution rate may be set to 50% and may be selected at the same ratio, or the distribution rate may be calculated using a predetermined algorithm. As in the above-described embodiment, when a data set for corresponding to a point where a plurality of ranges on the map overlap is recorded in advance, the data is recorded as the number of target points increases. Since the number of data sets increases, it takes time and effort to create the data sets, and a recording area for recording them is also required. However, these problems can be solved by calculating a data set corresponding to a point where a plurality of ranges on the map overlap at the timing when a search request is received.

(2) In the above-described embodiment, the control device 103 specifies the area specifying information for uniquely specifying a plurality of areas indicating a predetermined range set on the map, and the association associated with the area specifying information. An example of setting a data set composed of information has been described. However, the control device 103 may set the data set by associating the area specifying information with a plurality of related information. For example, taking the above-mentioned advertisement as an example, information publisherYa for specifying an advertisement space and data format formatYb of advertisement data distributed to the advertisement space may be recorded as related information as related information. As the data format formatYb of the advertisement data, a data format of advertisement data to be displayed in the advertisement space such as a banner advertisement or a moving image advertisement is stored. In this case, the above-described equation (1) becomes the following equation (7).
publisherYa: formatYb: polygonX = contentsZ (7)

For example, when publisherYa = Ya1 and the region 2b shown in FIG. 2 is polyGonX = X1, if the data format of the advertising space is the banner advertisement format, format = Yb1; = Yb2. In this case, when the data format of the advertisement space is the banner advertisement format, the advertisement data specified by the contentsZ = Za is distributed, and when the data format of the advertisement space is the video advertisement format, the contents Z = Zb. When data is recorded in the data set so as to distribute the specified advertisement data, the following equations (8) and (9) are obtained.
Ya1: Yb1: X1 = Za (8)
Ya1: Yb2: X1 = Zb (9)

  The control device 103 receives the current position information from the search request terminal, receives information for identifying the advertisement space (publisherYa), and information for identifying the data format that can be distributed to the advertisement space (formatYb) and performs a search. When the request is received, the data set corresponding to the received information can be read to determine the advertisement data to be distributed.

  This makes it possible to record data for a data set in which a plurality of related information is associated with the area specifying information. Therefore, when recording data according to the current location of the search request terminal, a plurality of related information Detailed data based on information can be recorded.

(3) In the above-described embodiment, the description has been given of the example in which the control device 103 sets a data set including region specifying information and related information associated with the region specifying information. And what kind of information is defined as related information depends on what kind of data the user wants to record in the data set. For example, the WEB page displayed on the search request terminal by the user When providing a service for distributing advertisements to the above advertisement space, information for specifying the advertisement space is defined as related information. Other examples of related information are as follows.

  For example, as related information, user profile information indicating an attribute of a user who accesses data recorded in the data set, and user information for specifying a user who is permitted to access data recorded in the data set are recorded. You can also. When the user profile information is related information and the user profile is the user's gender, the data to be transmitted to the men in the area as a data set in which the area specifying information and the user's gender are associated, and in the area Data to be transmitted to women can be recorded in different data sets. Further, when the user profile is a user's favorite music genre or movie genre, the data set in which the area specifying information and the user's favorite music genre or movie genre are associated with each other is a user who likes a specific music genre or a specific Data for a user who likes a movie genre can be recorded for each region where the user is located.

  Moreover, you may use several information as a user profile like sex, age, and a favorite music genre. For example, a male, 20-year-old, favorite music genre is set to a user profile that combines gender, age, and favorite music genre, like Western music, and a data set that records data corresponding to the user profile is set. For example, it is possible to provide optimal data that is highly likely to be of interest to the user for each gender, age, and favorite music genre. In addition, the age may be divided for each age such as 20 years old, 21 years old, 20 years old, 30 years old, 40 years old, 20 years old to 25 years old, 26 years old to 29 years old, 30 years old to 35 years old As described above, a predetermined range of ages may be grouped and classified.

  In addition, when user information is related information, data to be distributed for each user should be recorded for each region in which the user is located in a data set in which region specifying information is associated with user information. Can do. Further, terminal information for uniquely specifying the search request terminal may be defined as related information. In this case, data can be recorded for each search request terminal.

(4) In the above-described embodiment, the data set in which the data is recorded is recorded in the recording device 104, and the control device 103 performs data matching the search condition based on the data search request from the search request terminal. The example in which the set is read from the recording device 104 has been described. However, the control device 103 may read the data set from the recording device 104 to the RAM and read the data set that matches the search condition from the RAM based on the data search request from the search request terminal. As a result, the data search speed can be increased.

(5) In the above-described embodiment, as the data processing device 100, for example, an example using a device such as a personal computer (personal computer) or a server has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to a personal computer or a server as long as it is a recording apparatus for recording data or an apparatus or device that includes a control device for executing processing. For example, a portable terminal such as a PDA or a smartphone can be used as the data processing device 100.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to the configurations in the above-described embodiments as long as the characteristic functions of the present invention are not impaired. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which combined the above-mentioned embodiment and a some modification.
