[System configuration]
First, the configuration of the tourism information providing system according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The ticket purchaser can access the tourist information providing server 100 from the ticket purchase means 601 for purchasing a railway ticket, and can access the SNS using the SNS access means 603. The purchaser's friend or other member in the SNS used by the purchaser also has the SNS access means 701. The ticket purchase means 601 may be, for example, a ticket vending machine and a website that sells tickets. It is assumed that the purchaser has a user ID for ticket purchase in advance, and an SNS member ID is registered in association with the user ID. There may be a plurality of SNS member IDs registered in association with the user ID.

  The tourism information providing server 100 includes a service reception unit 101, an SNS member search unit 103, an information request notification unit 105, an information posting unit 107, an information reception unit 109, an information reception notification unit 111, a tourism information DB ( Database) 113 and an information display unit 115 are mainly included.

  The service reception unit 101 determines the presence / absence of SNS usage registration from the user ID of the ticket purchaser and accepts the use of the tourism information providing service. Here, the user ID is a user-specific ID related to the use of the tourism information providing service, and information related to the user is registered in advance in association with the user ID. The service reception unit 101 acquires the user ID of the ticket purchaser, and determines whether or not there is a SNS member ID associated with the user ID from user information registered in advance. When the SNS member ID is registered in association with the user ID, the service accepting unit 101 accepts the use of the tourist information providing service, acquires the member ID in the purchaser's SNS, and the SNS member search unit. The member ID is supplied to 103. That is, the service reception unit 101 can function as an identifier acquisition unit that acquires an identifier of a ticket purchaser at a predetermined membership system community site. When a plurality of SNS member IDs are registered in association with the user ID, the service receiving unit 101 acquires a plurality of member IDs and acquires the plurality of member IDs acquired by the SNS member search unit 103. Supply.

  The SNS member search unit 103 has a function of extracting a member corresponding to the search condition from the SNS member DB 500 based on the SNS member ID supplied by the service reception unit 101. Here, the SNS member search unit 103 can search, for example, members registered as friends of the ticket purchaser and members who live around the destination of the purchased ticket. The member searched here is requested to post tourist information to be provided to the purchaser later. For this reason, it is possible to request posting from a person who has a connection with the purchaser by setting the search condition as a member registered as a friend of the purchaser. Further, by making the search condition a member resident in the vicinity of the purchased ticket destination, it becomes possible to collect tourist information from local residents who know the target area well. Note that the SNS member search unit 103 searches for members from the plurality of SNS member DBs 500 when member IDs of a plurality of types of SNSs are supplied from the service reception unit 101. The SNS member search unit 103 supplies the search result to the information request notification unit 105.

  When extracting members who live in the vicinity of the destination of the purchased ticket, specifically, the following search conditions can be used. For example, the search condition may be that the distance between the purchaser's expected drop-off station and a place registered in advance as a member's residence is within a predetermined distance. In addition, the search condition may be that the time required from the purchaser's planned drop-off station to a location registered in advance as a member's residence is within a preset time. Further, the search condition may be that the shortest required time from the purchaser's scheduled departure station to the station registered in advance as a station where the member gets off when returning home is within a preset time.

  The information request notification unit 105 notifies the member searched by the SNS member search unit 103 of a request for tourism information regarding a place associated with the purchased ticket. For example, when the purchased ticket is a Shinkansen ticket bound for Kyoto, the information request notification unit 105 requests posting of tourist information about Kyoto. Here, the information request notification unit 105 may notify a request for information using an SNS message function. In addition, the information request notification unit 105 may notify the request for information by e-mail using an e-mail address registered in association with the user ID of the tourism information providing service. In addition, when the SNS member search part 103 searches a member from several SNS member DB500, a request notification process is performed about each SNS.

  The information posting unit 107 has a function of receiving posts of tourist information from the purchaser's friend who has been notified by the information request notification unit 105 or a member residing in the vicinity of the purchaser's destination. Specifically, the information posting unit 107 provides a posting screen for an SNS member to post tourist information. When an SNS member performs an operation of posting tourist information from the posting screen, the information posting unit 107 supplies information input from the posting screen to the information receiving unit 109. Here, on the posting screen, for example, it is possible to post tourist information including information such as the name of the target facility, the type of information, the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of the site of the facility, a photograph, a location, and a comment. .

  The information receiving unit 109 has a function of receiving the posted tourist information supplied from the information posting unit 107 and storing it in the tourist information DB 113. At this time, the posted tourist information is stored in association with an identifier for identifying ticket purchase. When receiving the posted information, the information receiving unit 109 supplies the information reception notification unit 111 that the tourist information has been posted, and information used for the information reception notification among the posted tourist information. That is, the information posting unit 107 and the information receiving unit 109 are examples of a posting unit that receives sightseeing information posted by a member who has been notified of a request for information in response to the request.

  The information reception notification unit 111 has a function of notifying the purchaser that the tourist information has been posted. The information reception notification unit 111 may notify the purchaser every time post information is received, for example. Or you may confirm the presence or absence of information reception regularly and you may notify several posted information collectively. The information reception notifying unit 111 may notify the reception of information by an SNS message function. In addition, the information reception notification unit 111 may notify the reception of information by e-mail using an e-mail address registered in association with the user ID of the tourism information providing service.

  The tourist information DB 113 is a database that stores the tourist information received by the information receiving unit 109. The tourism information DB 113 stores the posted tourism information in association with ticket purchase. Further, the tourism information DB 113 can store the tourism information in association with the information of the member who posted the tourism information. The tourist information stored here may include information such as the name of the target facility, the type of information, the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of the website of the facility, a photograph, a location, and a comment.

  The information display unit 115 has a function of generating a display screen that displays posted sightseeing information. When the purchaser accesses the SNS and performs an operation of displaying the posted tourism information, the information display unit 115 has a function of displaying the tourism information associated with the user ID in response to the operation. For example, the information display unit 115 may generate a display screen for each category for the categorized tourism information. At this time, a display format may be selected and provided from list display, thumbnail display, map display, or the like, or these display formats may be switched and displayed. The information display unit 115 is an example of a posted information providing unit that provides posted tourist information to a ticket purchaser.

  Heretofore, an example of the function of the tourism information providing server 100 according to the present embodiment has been shown. Each component described above may be configured using a general-purpose member or circuit, or may be configured by hardware specialized for the function of each component. Further, the function of each component is determined by a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), or the like that stores a control program that describes a processing procedure in which an arithmetic unit such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) realizes these functions.

[Operation of tourism information provision system]
Next, the operation of the tourism information providing system according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing the operation of the tourism information providing system. In the explanation, the explanation diagrams for the screens of FIGS. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a tourist information request notification using an SNS screen. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a tourist information request notification by e-mail. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a sightseeing information posting screen. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of the tourist information reception notification using the SNS screen. FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a tourist information reception notification by mail. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a detailed display screen for sightseeing information. FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a map display screen for sightseeing information.

  First, in order to purchase a ticket, a ticket purchaser logs in using a user ID to a ticket vending machine or a Web site where the ticket is purchased (S101). At this time, as a user ID input method, a method using a membership card, biometric authentication, manual input using a keyboard or a touch panel, and the like can be given.

  Then, the purchaser performs ticket purchase processing (S103). For example, ticket purchase processing may include entry of a boarding place and alighting place, designation of a boarding flight, input of date and time, number of people, settlement processing, and the like. When the service reception unit 101 of the tourism information providing server 100 detects that the ticket purchase processing is completed, the service reception unit 101 refers to the user information based on the purchaser's user ID and determines whether or not there is an SNS usage registration ( S105). If it is determined in step S105 that there is no registration for using the SNS, the tourism information providing service cannot be used, and the process is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined that SNS is used, the SNS member search unit 103 searches the SNS member DB 500 for members that match the search conditions (S107). For example, here, the search condition is a member registered in the SNS as a friend of the ticket purchaser and a member residing in the vicinity of the ticket arrival station.

  Then, the information request notifying unit 105 notifies the request for information provision to the search person in step S107 (S109). For example, the information provision request notification may be notified by an information provision request notification screen 711a using the message function of the SNS site as shown in FIG. At this time, it is desirable that the information provision request notification screen 711a includes a link button 713a for transitioning to the posting screen so that the corresponding person can easily post information. Further, the information request notification unit 105 may perform a request for information provision on an information provision request notification screen 711b by e-mail as shown in FIG. Also in this case, it is desirable that a link 713b to the posting screen is included in the body of the e-mail. Then, the information posting unit 107 determines whether or not the corresponding person has responded to the request (S111). When the information posting section 107 responds to the request, the information posting section 107 performs information posting processing of the corresponding person (S113). For example, when the information posting unit 107 detects that the corresponding person has pressed the link 713 to the posting screen of the information provision request notification screen 711, for example, the information posting unit 107 displays a posting screen 715 shown in FIG. Then, the information posting unit 107 performs information posting processing according to the input operation of the corresponding person on the posting screen 715 (S113). The information posting unit 107 determines the presence / absence of information posting based on, for example, whether or not a determination button (not shown) on the posting screen 715 is pressed (S115). When it is determined that information has been posted, the information reception unit 109 stores the posted information in the tourism information DB 113, and the information reception notification unit 111 notifies the purchaser of the reception of the tourist information (S117). ).

  For example, the information reception notification unit 111 may notify the purchaser that the tourist information has been posted on the information reception notification screen 611a using the message function of the SNS site as shown in FIG. At this time, the information reception notification screen 611a preferably includes a link 613a to the posted information browsing screen so that the purchaser can easily refer to the tourist information posted. Further, the information reception notification unit 111 may notify the purchaser that the tourist information has been posted on the information reception notification screen 611b by electronic mail as shown in FIG. Also in this case, it is desirable that the text of the e-mail includes a link 613b to the posted information browsing screen. Then, when the purchaser presses down the link 613 to the posted information browsing screen, the information display unit 115 displays a tourist information provision screen 615a based on the detailed display of the tourist information as shown in FIG. 8, for example (S119). Moreover, you may display the sightseeing information provision screen 615b by the map display of sightseeing information as shown in FIG. The tourist information provision screen 615a based on the detailed display and the tourist information provision screen 615b based on the map display can be switched to each other by a switching button 617 included in each screen.

[Example of effects]
The configuration and operation of the tourism information providing system according to the first embodiment of the present invention have been described above. According to such a configuration, a member who has a connection with the ticket purchaser from the SNS member using the SNS member ID registered in advance by the purchaser who purchases the boarding ticket of the railway company in association with the user ID ( For example, a member registered as a friend) and a member residing in the destination of the boarding ticket can be searched. And it can request | require the contribution of the tourist information provided to a purchaser with respect to the applicable person by search.

  At this time, a member search and information request are automatically made in conjunction with ticket purchase. Also, when tourist information is provided in response to a request, the purchaser is notified that it has been automatically received. For this reason, the purchaser can automatically acquire the tourist information of the travel destination without the trouble of searching for the travel destination information separately.

  In addition, at this time, it is possible to request provision of sightseeing information to a member who has a connection with the purchaser in advance by SNS. Those who have a connection with the purchaser are likely to know well about the purchaser's hobbies and preferences. For this reason, by requesting posting from a friend of the purchaser, there is a very high possibility that tourism information that matches the purchaser's preference can be collected. Further, in the case of tourist information collected by requesting posting from an unspecified person on a bulletin board site on the Web, the purchaser does not know the poster of the tourist information. For this reason, the purchaser cannot evaluate the posted tourist information based on who posted the information. On the other hand, by requesting posting from the purchaser's friend, the purchaser can evaluate the posted tourist information based on the friend's hobbies and preferences. For example, it is assumed that tourist information about a museum is posted by a friend B. At this time, when the purchaser feels that his / her hobbies are suitable for the friend B and the art, the purchaser can evaluate that the reliability of the tourist information is high. On the other hand, it is assumed that tourist information about a restaurant is posted by a friend B. At this time, if the purchaser feels that the friend B does not agree with the food preference, the purchaser can evaluate that the reliability of the tourist information is low.

  Moreover, SNS has member's personal information beforehand. This member information often includes information on the place of residence. For this reason, it is possible to request the provision of tourist information to the members who live at the destination of the ticket purchaser. People who live in an area are very likely to know the area well. For this reason, it becomes possible to collect information from a person who knows the area well by requesting a member who lives in the area to post tourism information.

<3. Second Embodiment>
[System configuration]
Next, the configuration of a tourism information providing system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10 is a configuration diagram of a tourism information providing system according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

  The tourist information providing server 200 according to the present embodiment is different from the tourist information providing server 100 according to the first embodiment in that it further includes a navigation use determining unit 201 and a point providing unit 203. Also, in the first embodiment, the explanation has been made assuming that the purchaser accesses the SNS mainly from a PC (Personal Computer). However, in this embodiment, the purchaser uses the mobile application 605 of the SNS. To access the SNS. This mobile application of SNS has a navigation function and can guide the route to the facility when the location information of the target facility is associated with the posted tourist information. Hereinafter, a description will be given focusing on differences from the first embodiment.

  The navigation usage determination unit 201 has a function of detecting that the purchaser has moved to the location of the facility introduced by the tourist information posted by the navigation function of the SNS mobile application that operates on the mobile terminal used by the purchaser. . When the navigation usage determination unit 201 detects that the purchaser has moved to the facility introduced by the posted tourist information, the navigation usage determination unit 201 notifies the point granting unit 203 of the detection. That is, the navigation usage determination unit 201 is an example of a movement detection unit that detects that a ticket purchaser has moved to a location associated with sightseeing information.

  The point granting unit 203 has a function of granting incentive points to the member who has posted the tourist information related to the facility where the purchaser has moved when receiving the notification from the navigation usage determining unit 201.

[Operation of tourism information provision system]
Next, the operation of the tourism information providing system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the operation of the tourism information providing system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Note that in the description, reference will be made to the explanatory diagrams of the display screens shown in FIGS. FIG. 12 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a tourist information reception notification by the mobile application. FIG. 13 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a tourist information reception notification by the mobile application. FIG. 14 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the start of navigation from the detailed screen of the posted tourist information.

  In FIG. 11, operations from step S201 to step 215 are the same as steps S101 to S115 in the flowchart shown in FIG. 2, and thus detailed description thereof is omitted here. When the tourist information is posted by the operation up to step S215, the information reception notifying unit 111 notifies the purchaser that the tourist information has been posted (S217).

  In the present embodiment, the information reception notification unit 111 notifies that the tourist information has been posted by a mobile application that operates on the mobile terminal of the purchaser. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 12, the information reception notification unit 111 displays the number of new tourism information received on the mobile application application selection screen 621 on the SNS mobile application icon 623, thereby creating a new tourism information. Notify buyers that information has been posted. When this icon 623 is selected, the information reception notifying unit 111 can display the notification screen 625 shown in FIG. 13 simultaneously with the activation of the application to indicate the purchase information to the purchaser (S219).

  Moreover, the information display part 115 may display the sightseeing information provision screen 627 shown, for example in FIG. The sightseeing information provision screen 627 includes a navigation button 629 that activates a navigation function. When the navigation button 629 is pressed, the mobile application automatically sets the position described in the tourist information as the destination and starts the navigation function.

  After the navigation function is started, the navigation usage determination unit 201 determines whether or not the purchaser's current position has arrived at a position associated with the tourist information (S221). When it is detected that the purchaser has moved to the location associated with the tourist information using the navigation function, the point granting unit 203 gives points to the poster of the tourist information (S223). The points given here may be points issued by a company that provides a tourist information providing service, such as a railway company. Alternatively, it may be a point that can be used by electronic money or a point service operated by another company.

[Example of effects]
As described above, according to the configuration of the tourism information providing system according to the second embodiment of the present invention, in addition to the effects described in the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained. For example, according to such a configuration, it is possible to improve the willingness to post a lot of tourist information to a poster who has posted the tourist information. That is, according to the configuration according to the second embodiment, a person who posts tourism information refers to the tourism information actually posted by the ticket purchaser and moves to the facility introduced by the posted tourism information. Then, you can earn incentive points. This increases the likelihood that contributors will endeavor to make tourism information attractive so that buyers really want to visit the facility.

  In such a system, securing the quality and quantity of tourism information to be posted is an issue. Even if the mechanism described in the first embodiment is provided, the satisfaction of the ticket purchaser will be low if the number of people who actually post the tourist information is small. Even if tourism information about a certain facility is posted, the posted tourism information may not be used effectively if the content of the information is poor. Therefore, by introducing the point system described in the present embodiment, it is possible to improve the willingness to post a lot of high-quality tourist information to those who post the tourist information.

<4. Third Embodiment>
[System configuration]
Next, the configuration of the tourism information providing system according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 15 is a configuration diagram of a tourism information providing system according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

  The tourist information providing server 300 according to the third embodiment of the present invention further includes an information search unit 301 and a public information notifying unit 303 in addition to the configuration of the tourist information providing server 100 according to the first embodiment.

  The information search unit 301 has a function of searching for sightseeing information about a destination of a purchased ticket from sightseeing information posted in the past. At this time, it is preferable that the tourism information DB 113 stores information on whether or not the posted tourism information is open to the public. For this purpose, the information posting unit 107 provides a posting screen that allows the poster to select whether or not to open to the public. When searching for tourist information, the information search unit 301 extracts relevant tourist information and supplies it to the public information notification unit 303.

  The public information notification unit 303 has a function of notifying the purchaser of sightseeing information corresponding to the search of the information search unit 301. The notification method here may be the same as that of the information reception notification unit 111. That is, the public information notifying unit 303 notifies the purchaser of a notification screen including a link to a Web page for referring to sightseeing information as a search result, using an SNS message function or an e-mail.

  In this embodiment, the information display unit 115 is searched not only by the function of displaying the tourist information posted in response to the information provision request notified in conjunction with the ticket purchase, but also by the information search unit 301. It also has a function to display the public information. In other words, in this embodiment, the information display unit 115 functions as a public information providing unit that provides tourist information searched by the information search unit 301 to the ticket purchaser.

Next, the operation of the tourism information providing system according to the third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 16 is a flowchart showing the operation of the tourism information providing system according to the third embodiment of the present invention.

  Note that the operations from step S301 to step S305 are the same as the operation of the tourism information providing system according to the first embodiment described with reference to FIG.

  If it is determined in step S305 that the ticket purchaser has already registered for use of the SNS, the information search unit 301 searches for information that is set to be publicly available from past posts. Then, the information search unit 301 determines whether there is tourism information that can be opened to the public and matches the search conditions (S309).

  If it is determined in step S309 that there is information around the destination of the ticket in the publicly available tourist information, the public information notifying unit 303 provides the tourist information as a search result to the purchaser (S311). On the other hand, if it is determined in step S309 that there is tourist information that can be opened to the public and there is no information around the destination of the ticket, the process in step S311 is omitted and the process proceeds to step S313.

  Here, the operations in steps S313 to S325 are the same as the operations in steps S107 to S119 of the tourism information providing system according to the first embodiment described in FIG. Note that the posting screen provided in the information posting processing executed in step S319 may be a posting screen 731 shown in FIG. This posting screen 731 has a field for selectively inputting whether public disclosure is possible.

[Example of effects]
According to the configuration of the tourism information providing system according to the third embodiment of the present invention described above, a ticket purchaser is notified in conjunction with ticket purchase from a friend of SNS and a member residing in the destination. It is possible to acquire not only the sightseeing information posted according to the above but also the sightseeing information posted in the past, the one posted to the same destination.

  Therefore, it is possible to acquire the latest information posted in conjunction with ticket purchase and to effectively use the tourist information posted in the past. At this time, since posting can be made by selecting whether or not to open to the public, the contributor must post with a setting not to open to the public, especially when posting including a personal message to the purchaser. Therefore, it is possible to convey information only to a specific person while protecting privacy.
