Description

  The present invention relates to a technique in which a terminal notifies its partner terminal of its own location information.

  A mobile terminal typified by a smartphone is generally equipped with a GPS (Global Positioning System) and can measure current position information in real time. There are also many location tracking applications that can acquire the location information of the mobile terminal of the other party (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

  Conventionally, there is a technique using e-mail in order to notify the counterpart terminal of location information of its own mobile terminal (see, for example, Patent Document 1). According to this technique, a transmission source terminal transmits position information measured by its own GPS attached to an e-mail according to a user's selection. The information management device that relays the e-mail stores the location information included in the e-mail in association with the transmission source terminal. Then, the e-mail to be transmitted to the destination terminal is attached with a map indicating the position of the source terminal. The user of the destination terminal can know the position of the transmission source terminal by looking at the map attached to the e-mail.

  There is also a technique for converting a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of a map so as to include a parameter of pop-up information desired to be displayed on the map when a map is provided via a Web site (see, for example, Patent Document 2). According to this technology, the converted URL is transmitted to the counterpart terminal, and the counterpart terminal can browse the map on which the pop-up information is superimposed only by accessing the URL.
