FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an example of a user and area owner matching process according to the first embodiment of the present invention. This process is realized, for example, by executing a program stored in the memory 11 of the service providing server 1 in the control unit 10.

First, the area related information management unit 21 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 refers to the area related information table 500 and transmits the area related information to the user terminal 3 via the transmission / reception unit 13 (S101). The user terminal 3 receives area-related information via this application, and displays a plurality of aerial-capable areas as a user interface as shown in FIG. The user can search for an area by entering an arbitrary keyword in the search window shown in FIG. 10A, or can browse by scrolling the displayed map or selecting an icon. To search for a desired area. Then, as shown in FIG. 10B, the user can select a desired area. In this example, the user searches for and selects “Kwanasaki Park” as an area. As described above, as the area-related information as information useful for searching for a desired area where the user wishes to take an aerial photograph, the area owner is previously provided with a name associated with the area, a reference photograph, and detailed information (for example, , Area intro) etc. can be provided as area related information. The user selects an area for which aerial photography is desired, and designates a date and time for which aerial photography is desired.

Next, the imaging management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 receives the information related to the area selected by the user terminal 3 and the information related to the desired date and time via the transmission / reception unit 13 (S102). The shooting management unit 23 refers to the shooting management table 700 and updates the received information regarding the selected area name, the user ID, and the reservation date and time (desired date and time in this step).

Next, the imaging management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 transmits an imaging request from the user terminal 3 to the area owner terminal 2 via the transmission / reception unit 13 (S103). The contents of the photographing request to be transmitted include, for example, the name of the area for which photographing is desired, the photographing date and time, information related to the user, for example, the user name (drone pilot name), contact information (for example, e-mail address), drone It is possible to transmit the model name, the presence / absence of insurance, and the insurance type. In particular, drone aerial photography requires safety considerations, including drone pilot handling skills and whether the drone pilot has interpersonal or objective insurance in case of an accident. Very important. Therefore, as described above, providing information related to the user to the area owner is important and useful information when the photographing request is permitted. In addition, by providing the user's aerial shooting history, the area owner can know the experience value of the user who requests the shooting.

Next, the photographing management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server receives photographing permission information from the area owner terminal 2 via the transmission / reception unit 13 (S104). As shown in FIG. 11, the area owner displays the contents of the photographing application by the user via this application on his / her area owner terminal 2, and permits or rejects the main photographing request while viewing the contents. Select whether to allow. The selected content is transmitted to the service providing server 1 via this application. When determining whether to permit or disallow, the service providing server 1 confirms in advance a conflict with the desired shooting date and time from another user, or an area in the application of the area owner terminal 1 The owner can also confirm. Alternatively, the user can confirm in advance whether or not there is a prior agreement on the date and time at which the user wishes to shoot in the application of the user terminal 3. In addition, when the area owner does not select the permission or non-permission for a certain period, it is possible to automatically set “permitted” or “non-permitted”. It is preferable to have the authority to set on the area owner side and the system management side.

  Subsequently, the imaging management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 confirms the contents of the permission / refusal information received by the service providing server 1 (S105). If the content of the permission / refusal information indicates permission for photographing, a notice of permission for photographing is transmitted to the user terminal 3 (S106). Further, if it indicates a disapproval, a notification to that effect is transmitted to the user terminal 3, and the processing returns to the original.

  In addition, the imaging management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 refers to the imaging management table 700 again to determine information related to the reservation date and time that has been set as the desired date and time.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a platform that efficiently matches a user who wants to shoot and an area owner, so that the user can perform shooting using an unmanned airplane. It is possible to easily contact the area owner who owns the area where photographing is desired and to obtain permission for photographing.

Hereinafter, a service providing system according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The basic functional configuration of the service providing server 1 described in the present embodiment is the same as that described in the first embodiment unless otherwise specified. In the first embodiment, mention has been made mainly of providing a platform for matching a user who wishes to shoot with an area owner. However, in this embodiment, the concept of a shooting ticket is further technically realized. By using this platform, both users and area owners can enjoy the benefits.

  FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing an example of ticket purchase processing according to the second embodiment of the present invention. First, the service providing server 1 transmits a photographing permission notification to the user terminal 3 as described in the first embodiment (S201).

  Next, the imaging management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 executes ticket sales processing for the user terminal 3 (S202). Here, the ticket will be described. The ticket is a purchase target for a predetermined area of the user in exchange for a photographing right associated with a photographing request using an unmanned aircraft. As described above, examples of ticket types include tickets based on a paid plan (for example, an amount of 5,000 to 20,000 yen per ticket) and tickets based on a free plan. The area owner can conclude a basic contract (paid ticket sales contract) and a free ticket contract as an additional option with the service provider. According to the former paid ticket sales contract, for example, when the area owner gives the user permission to shoot, it is possible to sell the paid ticket and return a certain percentage of the sales consideration to the area owner. . In addition, according to a free ticket contract of an additional option, the area owner, for example, purchases a certain number of paid tickets that are valid for a specified period from the service provider and provides the purchased tickets to the user free of charge. Can do. The user provides the area owner with image data taken as a replacement for purchasing a ticket free of charge. For example, the area owner purchases 60 tickets equivalent to 5,000 yen per ticket with a validity period of 3 months from the service provider and provides them free of charge to the user. Although the user can acquire the photographing right in exchange for a free ticket for the area owned by the area owner, it is necessary to provide the area owner with content (for example, image data) photographed by the user instead. . The service provider can also design the service so that the user cancels the paid ticket or the free ticket. In this case, the paid ticket can be refunded with a fixed cancellation fee, and the free ticket can be returned to the area owner with the right to provide the canceled free ticket again. In addition, it is assumed that cancellation is caused by bad weather, so it is possible to design a charge design or a monthly charge model that assumes that.

  At the time of ticket sales, the imaging management unit 23 determines whether the target area is a ticket sales target based on a paid ticket plan or a ticket provision target based on a free ticket plan (S203).

  If the determination in S203 is a paid ticket, the process proceeds to ticket sales processing (S204). The service providing server 1 sells a paid ticket to the user terminal 3. When the ticket management unit 23 sells a ticket, it can confirm the amount of the ticket set for the area. The area owner can arbitrarily determine the amount of the ticket in the target area, for example, in the range of 5,000 yen to 20,000 yen in increments of 5,000 yen. Alternatively, the area owner can arbitrarily determine the ticket amount itself. Alternatively, for example, the service provider refers to the number of shooting requests stored in the service providing server 1 to automatically calculate the popularity of the area, and automatically calculates the ticket sales amount according to the popularity. It can also be adjusted.

In the ticket sales process, the service providing server 1 can cooperate with other settlement processing servers. At the time of sales, a ticket purchase screen is displayed on the user terminal 3 via this application, and the user confirms the amount of money, specifies the number of tickets as necessary, and performs purchase confirmation processing. Upon receiving the purchase request, the imaging management unit 23 of the control unit 23 of the service providing server 1 executes a settlement process (S205).

When the payment for ticket purchase is executed, the shooting management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 grants a shooting right to the user terminal 3 (S206). More specifically, the shooting management unit 23 can manage the user's shooting right assignment by referring to the shooting management table 700 and updating the items of the purchase plan related to the target area and the target user. For example, in FIG. 7, when a user identified by the user ID “20001” purchases a paid ticket in relation to shooting of the area “Lake Inawashiro”, the “plan” item corresponds to the paid ticket. By performing flag processing for inputting “A” indicating “A plan” to be performed, it is possible to manage that the user's photographing right has been granted.

If the determination in S203 is a free ticket, the service providing server 1 provides the free ticket to the user terminal 3 (S207). Even when a free ticket is provided, the service providing server 1 checks the number of tickets provided by the area owner to the user, and performs a process of updating the remaining number of free tickets managed in the DB or the like. Can do.

When the provision of the free ticket is executed, the photographing management unit 23 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 grants the photographing right to the user terminal 3 (S208). More specifically, the shooting management unit 23 can manage the user's shooting right assignment by referring to the shooting management table 700 and updating the items of the purchase plan related to the target area and the target user. For example, in FIG. 7, when a user identified by the user ID “20001” is provided with a free ticket in relation to the shooting of the area “Lake Inawashiro”, a “free ticket” is displayed in the “plan” item. By performing a flag process for inputting “B” indicating “B plan” corresponding to, it is possible to manage that the user's photographing right has been granted.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the area owner can obtain the price for providing the photographing right of the area through ticket sales, and at the same time, the user can obtain the photographing right. In addition, the form of a free ticket allows the user to obtain a photographing right free of charge, while the area owner can widely publicize the area owned by the customer using the effect of attracting customers.

In the present embodiment, it is essential to use paid tickets and free tickets as consideration for the photographing right, and the timing of ticket purchase and settlement is not limited to the above-described form. For example, the user can purchase a ticket in advance, or the service providing server 1 obtains the position information of the unmanned aircraft (by tracking the GPS) that the user has actually shot in the target area. It is possible to automatically purchase a ticket and make a payment with the confirmation as a trigger.

Hereinafter, a service providing system according to a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The basic functional configuration of the service providing server 1 described in the present embodiment is the same as that described in the first and second embodiments unless otherwise specified. In the second embodiment, it is mentioned that both the user and the area owner can enjoy the merits by technically realizing the concept of the shooting ticket, and using this platform, but in this embodiment, Furthermore, it is characterized in that the area owner can enjoy further benefits in exchange for a free ticket.

It is the flowchart figure which showed the example of the content access provision process by 3rd Embodiment by this invention.

  First, as a result of the user who has acquired the photographing right actually performing aerial photography in the target area, the content management unit 24 of the control unit 10 of the service providing server 1 passes through the transmission / reception unit 13 to the unmanned aircraft or the user terminal 3. The image data taken from the sky is received (S301).

  Subsequently, the content management unit 24 stores the received image data in the content storage unit 35 of the storage 12 (S302). Also, the content management unit 24 refers to the content management table 800 and inputs a content ID corresponding to the received image data and a user ID corresponding to the user who is the content owner (user who is the transmission source of the image data). Manage content with.

Here, the content management unit 24 checks whether or not the user who is the content owner is a user who has acquired the photographing right through the free ticket (S303). For example, in the above-described photographing management table 700, it is possible to perform the main confirmation by confirming whether or not the flag “B” indicating a free ticket is set in relation to the target area and the target user.

If the confirmation in S303 is YES, the content management unit 24 grants the access right to the content to the area owner of the target area where the received content has been shot (S304). For example, the content management unit 24 refers to the content management unit 800 to indicate that the access right has been granted in association with the content ID (for example, “50001”) corresponding to the received image data. By performing the update by inputting (for example, “10001”), the access granting process can be executed. As a result, the area owner (owner ID “10001”) accesses the image (content ID “50001”) taken by the user (user ID “20002”) who has acquired the right to photograph the area “Lake Inawashiro” with a free ticket. The area owner can freely view, download and use the image. If necessary, the service providing server can provide a stage for the access authority of the area owner. For example, it is possible to grant an authority that allows the user to browse the image freely but cannot download it, and an authority that cannot be used even if browsing and downloading are possible. In addition, when storing image data in a third-party video distribution site or a cloud service DB (database) different from the service provider, a link (URL) to the video distribution site or the like is provided to the area owner. You can also.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the area owner can expect the effect of attracting customers in exchange for the provision of the free ticket, and further, the user can be provided with the image taken by the user. Can be linked to the promotion of the area.

Hereinafter, a service providing system according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The basic functional configuration of the service providing server 1 described in the present embodiment is the same as that described in the first to third embodiments unless otherwise specified. The fourth embodiment includes a confirmation process between the user and the area owner, which is executed on the shooting day of the user. FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing an example of a confirmation process in photographing according to the fourth embodiment of the present invention. For the following web pages, the items included in the web page can be displayed across multiple pages or scrolled down for screen display or design reasons, etc. It is not limited to.

First, the service providing server 1 generates a web page for shooting day and provides it to the user terminal 3 (S401). For example, the service providing server 1 generates a shooting day page based on the shooting management table 700 or the like on the shooting day (or a predetermined time or a predetermined time before the shooting reservation date and time). The contents of the current day page include shooting area information, area owner information, area owner contact information, emergency contact information, and the like. Further, the current day page includes a check-in button for the user to start shooting. The service providing server 1 generates a current-day page, which is transmitted to the user terminal when the user accesses it through a browser built in the user terminal or an application downloaded to the user terminal.

Next, when the user confirms the current day page and selects the check-in button to start shooting, the service providing server 1 receives the selection (S402). When the check-in button is selected, the service providing server 1 describes the prohibited items and local rules in the area, and transmits a page for confirming that the user starts aerial photography to the user terminal (S403). .

In order to indicate that the user has confirmed the contents described on the confirmation page, the user checks the check box included in the confirmation page and instructs to confirm that the aerial photography starts, such as the “Start aerial photography” button. Then, the service providing server 1 receives that effect (S404). At this point, if the user is performing a procedure for taking out insurance, the user is eligible for the insurance.

When the user displays an intention to confirm the notes via the check box on the confirmation page, the service providing server 1 notifies the area owner terminal 2 that the user has started shooting (S405). Here, as a notification method, for example, a mail address registered by the area owner may be used, or a push notification may be performed on the display screen of the area owner terminal 2.

Then, the user performs shooting without delay, and when completed, selects a checkout button included in a predetermined page. The service providing server 1 receives the checkout notice (S406), and notifies the area owner terminal 2 of the fact by the method exemplified above. Through the above processing, the user who takes a picture and the area owner can perform a smooth exchange related to the shooting even on the shooting day through the service provided by the service providing server.

If any trouble occurs during shooting, the user promptly contacts the emergency contact of the area owner and takes action according to the emergency manual. The shooting ends when the trouble has been settled. Further, as described above, regarding troubles to which insurance is applied, the process proceeds to predetermined insurance application processing.

In addition, the operation history and snapshot data related to the shooting day page of the user are stored in the user information management table 32 of the storage 12 or an arbitrary storage area as an activity log so that it can be used as a proof of the performance of the subsequent user pilot. You can also keep it. Since the information regarding the activity log has value as it is, for example, saving an activity log such as an operation history of the shooting day page for one year or more can be a paid option. The activity log can also include operation and flight histories collected through the unmanned aerial vehicle, which allows the user pilot activity record to be taken from the viewpoint of unmanned aircraft operation and safety. It can be done in many ways. It is also possible to provide a method in which photographing permission is automatically given to a user having a certain activity record depending on the setting of the area owner. If an area owner receives multiple requests for shooting permission, including competing times, such users are automatically granted so that they can be given priority to users with many such activity records. The user who should be permitted preferentially based on the activity record can be highlighted or displayed in order from the top.

  The above-described embodiments are merely examples for facilitating understanding of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. The present invention can be changed and improved without departing from the gist thereof, and it is needless to say that the present invention includes equivalents thereof.
