  The visited store receiving unit 103 may receive store identification information for identifying store information indicating a store selected by a user operation, and the location indicated by the current location information such as GPS acquired by the user's terminal device 2. You may receive the shop identification information which identifies the shop information which shows a shop. The visited store receiving unit 103 is usually realized by a wireless or wired communication means.

  The user visit history adding unit 104 adds the user identification information received by the visited store receiving unit 103 so that the user identification information received in association with the user identification information is included in the user information corresponding to the user identification information. The user visit history adding unit 104 may add store identification information to the existing user information, and newly creates user information that can be identified by the user identification information received by the visited store receiving unit 103. In the user information, You may accumulate | store including the shop identification information received by matching with the user identification information in the visiting shop receiving part 103. FIG.

  The receiving unit 105 repeatedly receives user position information, which is information indicating the current position of the user, from the user terminal device. The user position information is information indicating the current position of the user. The user position information may be expressed by any method as long as the user position can be expressed. For example, the user position information may be a coordinate value of the user's position, may be information indicating the address of a store or facility where the user is located, or information indicating the name of a store or facility where the user is located. May be. The coordinate value may be latitude and longitude, or may be a coordinate value of another coordinate system.

  As described above, the receiving unit 105 receives user position information as appropriate. That is, the user terminal device 2 repeatedly transmits user position information. The timing at which the receiving unit 105 receives may be any timing. The receiving unit 105 may receive periodically or irregularly. When the receiving unit 105 periodically receives the user position information, the timing may be every 10 seconds, every minute, etc., or every preset time point. . When the receiving unit 105 receives the user position information irregularly, the timing may be random, may be every time a specific distance is moved, or every time when the moving state is changed from the stopped state. Etc. Note that the timing received by the receiving unit 105 may be a combination of two or more of the above-mentioned regular or irregular timings.

  The receiving unit 105 may further receive user desired distance information, which is information set by the user and is information indicating a threshold used for determination in the store position information specifying unit 107, and user desired information indicating conditions regarding the store User identification information that identifies a user who uses a terminal device that transmits user location information, and may receive transmission information designation information that is information that designates information that the user wants to transmit. May also be received.

  The user desired distance information is information indicating a threshold set by the user in order to determine whether or not the distance condition is satisfied. The user desired distance information may be information indicating a geographical distance or information indicating a temporal distance. Details regarding the distance condition will be described later.

  The user request information may be any information as long as the information indicates a store that the user wants. For example, the user request information may be information that limits information included in the store information. Specifically, the user desired information may be information for limiting the name of the store, information for limiting the type information, information for limiting the store attribute information, or the like. The information may be a combination of the above information. Specifically, user request information of a user who is looking for a pub may be “type of store: pub”.

  The transmission information designation information is information used when the user designates information to be transmitted by the transmission unit 111. The transmission information designation information may be information that designates the name of information included in the store information. For example, the transmission information designation information may be “store name, type information” or the like.

  The user desired distance information, the user desired information, the user identification information, or the transmission information designation information must be associated with the user position information. The user position information and each information may be associated with each other by receiving the user position information and other information at the same time. The user position information including the same ID and the other information are separately provided. It may be associated by receiving, or may be associated by receiving user position information and other information in order. When receiving the user position information including the same ID, the receiving unit 105 stores the user desired distance information, the user desired information, the user identification information, and the transmission information designation information so that the ID can be referred to by the ID (not shown). Or may be stored in an external storage device. Note that user desired distance information, user desired information, user identification information, and transmission information designation information stored in a storage unit (not shown) or an external storage device are user desired distance information, user desired information, user identification information, and It may be overwritten when transmission information designation information is newly received. Further, the ID may be user identification information, and may be a session ID issued at the time of authentication when managed by a user name and password. If the ID is user identification information, the user identification information may be received without including the ID.

  Further, the receiving unit 105 may receive store desired distance information and store identification information in association with each other from a store person through a route (not shown). The store desired distance information received by the receiving unit 105 may be added to the store related information storage unit 101 by an adding unit (not shown). In that case, the adding unit (not shown) adds the desired store distance information received by the receiving unit 105 to the store related information identified by the store identification information corresponding to the desired store distance information. The receiving unit 105 is usually realized by a wireless or wired communication unit.

  In the type distance information storage unit 106, one type or two or more types of type information indicating the type of store and type distance information indicating a threshold value used for determination in the store position information specifying unit 107 are stored. The type distance information is information indicating a threshold for determining whether or not a distance condition is satisfied. The user desired distance information may be information indicating a geographical distance or information indicating a temporal distance. Details regarding the distance condition will be described later. For the type distance information, it is preferable that a distance suitable for the type of store indicated by the type information is set for each type information. The distance suitable for the type of store may be, for example, a distance indicating a range of a trade area where customers can be expected in the type of store.

  The store location information specifying unit 107 specifies store location information indicating a location that satisfies a distance condition that is a predetermined condition. The store position information specified by the store position information specifying unit 107 is store position information that is close enough to satisfy the distance condition from the position indicated by the user position information received by the receiving unit 105 to the position indicated by the store position information. is there. The distance condition is, for example, that the distance from the position indicated by the user position information received by the receiving unit 105 to the position indicated by the shop position information is closer than the distance set by the store personnel. It may be closer than the distance set by the user, or closer than the distance set according to the type of store. Therefore, the store location information specifying unit 107 determines the distance from the location indicated by the user location information to the location indicated by the store location information from the threshold value indicated by the store desired distance information included in the store related information including the store location information. Small store position information may be specified, and the distance from the position indicated by the user position information to the position indicated by the store position information is determined by the user desired distance information set by the user of the terminal device that transmitted the user position information. Store location information smaller than the indicated threshold value may be specified, and the distance from the location indicated by the user location information to the location indicated by the store location information is included in the store information included in the store-related information including the store location information. Store location information smaller than the threshold indicated by the type distance information corresponding to the type information It may be constant. The store location information specifying unit 107 may satisfy the distance condition when the threshold values are smaller than one or more types of threshold values, or may satisfy the distance condition when smaller than some threshold values. The distance condition may be satisfied when the threshold value is smaller than. Also, “close” may mean that the geographical distance is close, or that the temporal distance is close. Further, “smaller” may be a concept including equal or may not include a concept.

  The store position information specifying unit 107 may specify a route from the position indicated by the user position information to the position indicated by the store position information in order to calculate a geographical distance. The route can be identified by building a network consisting of nodes such as intersections or stations, and edges such as roads or tracks, and searching for routes using genetic algorithms, etc. Since it is a well-known technique for which various proposals, such as a method using statistics, have been made, description thereof will be omitted. The store location information specifying unit 107 may specify a route by accessing map information that is information related to a map stored in a storage unit (not shown) or an external server device via the network 100. The route may be specified by an external route specifying device via the. When calculating the temporal distance, it may be calculated by dividing the geographical distance by the average speed of each means of transportation, or using the required time between nodes such as between stations or stops, Two or more of these calculation methods may be combined for calculation. The store location information specifying unit 107 stores the time distance from the required time between stations or stops in a storage unit (not shown) or stored in an external server via the network 100 in advance. It may be calculated by accessing a required time, a timetable, or the like between stations or stops.

If the user position information or the expression of the store position information is inappropriate for calculating the distance, the store position information specifying unit 107 may convert the expression into an expression appropriate for the calculation. For example, when calculating the geographical distance, the store position information specifying unit 107 converts the position information into coordinate values when the position information is expressed by the name or address of a place such as a store or a facility. In calculating the temporal distance, if each position information is a coordinate value, it may be converted into the name of a station, a stop, a store, or the like that matches the coordinate value. The coincidence in this case may be a case where the coordinate value is included in the area of the facility, and the coordinate value is within a predetermined threshold value from a specific coordinate value in the facility.

  Hereinafter, a specific operation of the store information transmitting apparatus 1 in the present embodiment will be described. In addition, the information of each drawing shown in this specific example is prepared for convenience of explanation, and does not indicate actual data. Moreover, in a present Example, the shop information transmitter 1 shall be used only by the user who completed user registration. That is, it is assumed that the user information storage unit 102 stores in advance user information of all users who use the store information transmission device 1. In this specific example, it is assumed that the user normally uses the store information transmission device 1. Therefore, the visited store receiving unit 103 receives the user identification information for identifying the user and the store identification information that the user has visited in the past (step S205), and the user visit history adding unit 104 is responsible for the user. It is assumed that the store identification information is added to the user information identified by the identification information (step S206).

  In this specific example, it is assumed that the store-related information storage unit 101 stores the table shown in FIG. The table in FIG. 8 has a store ID and store-related information. The store related information includes store position information, store information, store desired distance information, and transmission period information. Further, the store information includes name, type information, priority information, and store attribute information. For example, the store ID “100” includes store location information “34.581496, 135.165825”, name “Vono”, type information “Italian restaurant”, priority information “1”, store attribute information “[ "Lunch, a lot of wine types, fashionable]", store desired distance information "1000m", and transmission period information "[11: 00 to 14:00, 18: 00 to 23:00]" ing.

  It is assumed that the user is walking around the town with the user's terminal device 2. Then, it is assumed that the user terminal device 2 transmits user position information “34.66302, 135.165739” indicating the current position to the store information transmitting device 1. The receiving unit 105 receives the user position information “34.66302, 135.165739” (step S201).

  When the user position information is received, the store position information specifying unit 107 specifies store position information close to the user's position from the store related information stored in the store related information storage unit 101 (step S202). . “Specify” may be to store information for identifying a specified target in a storage unit (not shown), and to set a flag indicating that the target is specified for the specified target. Also good. It is assumed that the store location information specifying unit 107 calculates the distance from the store location information of the store ID “100” (steps S301 to S303). The distance between the user position information “34.66302, 135.165739” and the store position information “34.581496, 135.165825” corresponding to the store ID “100” is “about 1691 m”. The store location information specifying unit 107 determines that the condition is not satisfied because the distance “about 1691 m” is farther than the desired store distance information “1000 m” corresponding to the store ID “100” (step S304). Then, the store location information specifying unit 107 performs the same process for the next store ID “101” (step S306). The store location information specifying unit 107 calculates a distance “about 274 m” between the user location information “34.66302, 135.165739” and the store location information of the store ID “101” (step S303). The store location information specifying unit 107 determines that the condition is satisfied because the distance “274 m” is closer than the desired store distance information “1500 m” of the store ID “101” (step S304). Since the condition is satisfied, the store location information specifying unit 107 specifies store location information of the store ID “101” (step S305). Further, the store location information specifying unit 107 similarly stores store location information of the store ID “102” whose distance from the user location information “34.66302, 135.165739” is “about 330 m” and “about 297 m”. The store location information of the store ID “103” that is “” and the store location information of the store ID “104” that is “about 269 m” are identified.

  When the store location information specifying unit 107 specifies store location information, the transmission unit 111 selects a part of store information that matches a predetermined condition from store information corresponding to the store location information (step S203). The transmission unit 111 uses the priority information corresponding to the store location information specified by the store location information specifying unit 107 to rearrange the store information corresponding to the store location information in descending order (step S601). The transmission unit 111 selects the store information of the store ID “102”, the store information of the store ID “104”, and the store information of the store ID “101”, which are the top three items of the rearranged store position information (step S602). ). Then, the transmission unit 111 includes a part of information included in the selected three store information and store position information “[formulation drug, 34.563404, 135.166512, {• coupon voucher, • pharmacist resident,・ Time sale (10: 00 to 12:00)}], [Sakeshin, 34.563899, 135.165997, {・ There are many types of shochu, ・ Course, ・ Night view spot, ・ Dinner, ・ Private room}] , [Nagomi-don, 34.563969, 135.164695, {Many types of cocktails, ・ Private rooms, ・ Dinner, ・ Happy time (16:00 to 18:00)}] ”are transmitted to the terminal device 2 of the user (Step S204). As a result, on the display of the user's terminal device 2, as shown in FIG. 13, the information transmitted by the transmission unit 111 is displayed as a star icon on the map. Furthermore, the user can confirm the details by selecting a star icon.

  The receiving unit 105 repeatedly receives user position information. Therefore, when the user has moved to the current position “34.77704, 135.1569797”, the distance from the store position information of the store ID “100” is “about 998 m”. Store information of “100” is transmitted.

  When the receiving unit 105 receives the user desired distance information “300 m” in association with the user position information “34.66302, 135.165739”, the store position information specifying unit 107 sets the user desired distance. The store location information of the store ID “101” closer to the information “300 m”, the store location information of the store ID “103”, and the store location information of the store ID “104” may be specified (steps S401 and S305). ).

  Further, when the store information transmitting apparatus 1 uses the type distance information storage unit 106, the store position information specifying unit 107 may specify the store position information using the information stored in the type distance information storage unit 106. good. It is assumed that the type distance information storage unit 106 stores the table shown in FIG. The table in FIG. 9 has type information and type distance information. For example, type information “sporting goods store” and type distance information “2000 m” are registered in this table. In this case, when the receiving unit 105 receives the user position information “34.66302, 135.165739”, the store position information specifying unit 107 sets the type distance information “1500 m” corresponding to the type information “Izakaya”. Store location information of store ID “101”, store location information of store ID “104”, store location information of store ID “102” closer to type distance information “1000 m” corresponding to type information “drug store” In addition, the store location information of the store ID “103” closer to the type distance information “2000 m” corresponding to the type information “sporting goods store” may be specified (step S501, step S502, and step S305).

  The receiving unit 105 also receives user desired information “store information: drug store” in association with the user position information “34.66302, 135.165739”, and the store position information specifying unit 107 stores the store ID. When the store location information of “101”, the store location information of the store ID “102”, the store location information of the store ID “103”, the store location information of the store ID “104”, and the like are specified, Of the store information corresponding to the store location information specified by the store location information specifying unit 107, the transmission unit 111 only stores store information of the store ID “102” whose type information corresponding to the store location information is “drug store”.

When it is assumed that the location information is specified, and the transmission unit 111 acquires “Monday 23:00” at the present time, the transmission unit 111 corresponds to the store location information specified by the store location information specification unit 107. Store information of store ID “103”, which is transmission period information whose transmission period information corresponding to the store position information currently includes “Monday 23:00”, store information of store ID “104”, May be selected (step S701 to step S702, step S801, and step S704 to step S705).

  When the store information transmitting apparatus 1 uses the store attribute period information storage unit 108, the transmission unit 111 may select store information using information stored in the store attribute period information storage unit 108. Assume that the store attribute period information storage unit 108 stores the table shown in FIG. The table in FIG. 10 has store attribute information and attribute period information. For example, store attribute information “lunch” and attribute period information “12: 0 to 15:00” are registered in this table. In this case, when it is assumed that the current time is “16:00”, the condition configuration unit 110 stores the store attribute information “happy time (16: 00 to 18: 18) corresponding to the attribute period information including the current time“ 16:00 ”. 00) ”(step S1001), and a condition that includes the store attribute may be configured (step S1002). Then, the store location information specifying unit 107 stores the store location information of the store ID “101”, the store location information of the store ID “102”, the store location information of the store ID “103”, and the store of the store ID “104”. If the location information or the like has been specified, the transmission unit 111 has the store ID “101” that matches the condition “including happy time (16:00 to 18:00)” configured by the condition configuration unit 110. Only store information may be selected (Steps S701 to S702, Step S902, and Steps S704 to S705).
