Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle allocation management system high in flexibility of allocating a vehicle to a transport order or high in flexibility for correcting a vehicle allocation rule by allocating a vehicle of highest priority to a generated transport order based on vehicle allocation rule information and vehicle movement information. SOLUTION: A management station 30 retrieves vehicles suited to movement and a belonging group included in vehicle allocation rule information stored in a vehicle allocation rule storing means 32a as to an area including the start position of a generated transport order based on vehicle movement information stored in a movement storing means 31 and informs of the retrieved vehicles in the order of priority. Consequently the transport order is informed of candidate vehicles in the high priority order regulated by the vehicle allocation rule information stored in the means 32a. Since the priority is an allocation index, the transport order is informed of a vehicle of low priority when there is no high priority vehicle corresponding to the rule, so that the flexibility of vehicle allocation to a transport order is high.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dispatch management system for allocating vehicles to transfer demands (transport orders) that occur at substantially irregular intervals, and more particularly, but not exclusively, to taxi management systems. The present invention relates to the assignment (deployment) of business vehicles, such as passenger cars and passengers, which carry pedestrians or customers to transport orders.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A commercial vehicle equipped with a wireless mobile station is used for a GPS.
The current position and the vehicle dynamics information such as empty and actual vehicles are notified to the management station through the wireless mobile station, and the management station, which is a fixed wireless station, uses the received information to determine the position of each business. Ascertains the position of the vehicle and the dynamics of the vehicle such as an empty vehicle or an actual vehicle, as well as the transportation order from the customer (usually notified by telephone)
Upon receiving the information, the location of the boarding place is searched from the telephone number of the customer, the telephone number used by the customer, or, in the case of a regular customer, the code number of the customer assigned to the sales office, and the location information of the boarding location (longitude, latitude) ) Is calculated, and there is a business vehicle dispatching system which searches for the nearest empty business vehicle and notifies the transportation order by wireless communication. The route guidance device of the commercial vehicle that has received the transportation order performs route guidance based on the map database based on the ground position information of the boarding place. For example, an example is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-315292.

[0003] The management bureau assigns to the transportation order a business vehicle which is empty and which is closest to the boarding place, that is, has the shortest distance from the current position to the boarding place. Therefore, if there is an empty vehicle near the boarding place, it is possible to quickly respond to the transportation order.

[0004]

By the way, in areas such as station squares, recreational facilities, public facilities, business offices and the like where passengers get on and off relatively frequently, business vehicles of different companies or different business offices even if the same company is used. Often business vehicles are on standby. It is uneconomical for each company and each sales office to operate the above-mentioned business vehicle dispatching system individually, assuming that those business regions are one unit. There are also small businesses or individuals who cannot build or maintain a business vehicle dispatch system. Therefore, it is preferable that a company and an individual operating a business vehicle in the same region jointly construct and maintain one business vehicle allocation system jointly. However, not only is it easy to cause problems in system construction costs and maintenance costs, but also the business policies and dispatch rules of each company cannot be applied individually. If each company's sales priority area is different, applying the same rules to all company sales vehicles in each area within the controlled area will result in the number of dispatches (passengers Operating results), and in the past, it was necessary to go to a distant area where the business results were small and receive a dispatch, and there was a concern that the management would actually worsen. Therefore, it is preferable that the dispatching rule is flexible and that the dispatching rule can be easily modified or changed. In particular, it is preferable that the dispatching rule can be easily corrected in response to the occurrence of a problem immediately after the commercial dispatching system for joint dispatching is constructed.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a dispatch management system that responds quickly to transportation demand and has high flexibility in assigning a vehicle to a transportation order, or with high flexibility in modifying a routing rule. The purpose is to:

[0006]

[0007] In order to facilitate understanding, in the parentheses, reference numerals or corresponding items of corresponding elements of the embodiment shown in the drawings and described later are added for reference.

[0008] According to this, a high-priority vehicle specified by the dispatching rule information of the dispatching rule storage means (32a: 321n) is assigned to the transportation order. Since the priority is an assignment index, if there is no vehicle corresponding to a rule having a high priority, a vehicle having a low priority is assigned, so that the flexibility of vehicle assignment to the transportation order is high. By modifying a part of the dispatching rule information in the dispatching rule storage means (32a: 321n), for example, by modifying the priority for the affiliation of the vehicle, the allocation rate of the transportation order by affiliation changes, High flexibility in modifying dispatching rules. Also, for example, when a new vehicle operating company enters or a member company withdraws, the vehicle allocation rule storage means (32a: 321n) rewrites vehicle allocation rule information to a new one, or partially subscribes or Such as erasing,
The vehicle allocation rule can be modified or changed by rewriting the memory, and the vehicle allocation rule can be modified or changed with high flexibility.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS (2) Mobile station transmitting means (2) for transmitting vehicle dynamic information including information indicating the current position of a vehicle and whether or not an object to be transported is present on each vehicle. Mobile station (1) including mobile station receiving means (8, 2) for receiving a transport order from the management station (30).
And a dispatching route in which the priority, the dynamics of the vehicle to be assigned to the transportation order, and the affiliation (company name) are assigned to each of a plurality of areas (A, B,...) Defined in the management area. Vehicle allocation rule storage means (32a: 321n) for storing vehicle information; management station receiving means (37, 34) for receiving the vehicle dynamic information; storing the vehicle dynamic information to the vehicle that generated it. Dynamic storage means (31: 312b); departure place (departure place) of generated transportation order
The vehicle allocation rule storage means (32a: 321n) in an area including
The vehicle that matches the dynamics and affiliation included in the vehicle allocation rule information based on the vehicle allocation rule information is stored in the dynamic storage means.
(31a: 312b) Vehicle dispatching means (32a: 321) for searching based on the vehicle dynamics information and notifying in order of priority; and for transmitting the generated transport order to the vehicle selected by the operator. A management station (30) including a management station transmitting means (34, 37).

According to this, the candidate vehicles are notified to the transportation order in the order of higher priority specified by the vehicle allocation rule information of the vehicle allocation rule storage means (32a: 321n). Since the priority is the assignment index, if there is no vehicle corresponding to a rule with a high priority, a vehicle with a low priority is notified, and the flexibility of vehicle assignment to the transportation order is high. The operator can select a vehicle suitable for the current situation by checking, for example, in order of priority from the notified candidate vehicles, and the operator can select a transportation order in response to the traffic conditions that change every moment. The flexibility to assign vehicles to vehicles is high.

Further, by correcting a part of the dispatching rule information of the dispatching rule storage means (32a: 321n), for example, by correcting the priority for the affiliation of the vehicle, the transportation order by affiliation can be adjusted. The allocation ratio changes, and the flexibility of modifying the dispatching rules is high. Also, for example, when a new vehicle operating company enters or a member company withdraws, the vehicle allocation rule storage means (32a: 321n) rewrites vehicle allocation rule information to a new one, or partially subscribes or The dispatching rule can be modified or changed by rewriting the memory such as erasing, and the flexibility of modifying and changing the dispatching rule is high.

(3) The dispatching rule information further includes a search target area for searching for a vehicle, and the priority in the dispatching rule information corresponds to the search target area.

According to this, for example, even in the case of joint dispatch, the business area (single or plural) of each taxi company
Is set as a search target area, and a high priority is given to a combination of the area and the taxi company (affiliation), so that the area becomes an area mainly including the taxi company, By defining the dispatching rule of the taxi company (for example, the dynamics of the vehicle to be assigned priority) in the rule information, the operation can be performed by substantially the rule of one company. For example, if the same priority is given to Company A and Company B in the same area, the probability that both companies' business vehicles will be assigned to the transportation order is 5
Since it is 0%, the two companies will operate jointly on an equal basis.

Further, by giving a high priority to the departure place (riding place) of the transportation order, that is, the area to which the demand place belongs or a search target area near the place, the priority of the vehicle near the demand place becomes high. In addition, the allocation rate of vehicles close to the demand area is high, and it is possible to respond more quickly to transportation demand, and the operation efficiency of vehicles is improved.

(4) The vehicle dynamics information includes "standby" which does not carry an object to be transported and is at a predetermined standby place; the dynamic storage means (31: 312b) also stores the start time when "standby". When searching for a plurality of "standby" vehicles having the same priority, the vehicle allocation means (32a: 321) sets the vehicle with the earliest standby start time as the first priority.

According to this, a vehicle having a long waiting time is preferentially assigned to the transportation order, and equivalence of the vehicle assignment is realized. In particular, when it is highly efficient to always or temporarily wait at places with high demand, such as in front of stations, leisure facilities, public facilities, and sales offices, it is expected that business vehicles will actively wait, and passengers will quickly You can get on.

(5) The vehicle dynamics information includes an “empty vehicle” that does not carry any items to be transferred;
A map information storage means (32a: 321a, 321b) including road distribution and travel time information addressed to the road included therein; the dispatch means (32a: 321) refers to the information of the map information storage means, When the route and time from the current position of the vehicle to the departure place (boarding place) of the transportation order are calculated, and a plurality of "vacant" vehicles having the same priority are searched, the vehicle with the shorter calculated time is ranked first. And According to this, the vehicle quickly arrives at the boarding place of the transportation order.

(6) The vehicle dynamics information in the dynamic storage means (31: 312b) is "scheduled to be vacant" which carries the transporting object.
And its "destination"; said management bureau (30) further comprises:
A map information storage means (32a: 321a, 321b) including road distribution and travel time information addressed to the road included therein; the dispatch means (32a: 321) refers to the information of the map information storage means, Calculate the route and time from the current position of the vehicle to the departure place (boarding place) of the transportation order via the "destination",
When a plurality of vehicles having the same priority are searched, the vehicle having the shorter calculated time is set as the first priority. According to this,
The vehicle will quickly reach the boarding point in Da.

Is written in the vehicle dynamics table (66, 67), and the update time is rewritten to the current time (65). When the vehicle is on the operation plan table (ie, when the vehicle of interest is to be used for business on the day), the vehicle of interest (FM)
No. ) Is read and the estimated remaining time from the start of work, after subtracting the current time, is
It is checked whether it is less than the scheduled start time (set value) that can be allocated to the vehicle (63). In other words, the vehicle of interest is changed to the transportation order,
Check if it can be assigned without any particular inconvenience in time. If the value is equal to or less than the set value, the given dynamic data is changed to the one indicating "scheduled to be opened" and the vehicle dynamic data is changed.
The updated time data is rewritten to the current time data (64). If the set value is exceeded, it is regarded that the transportation order cannot be assigned, and if the dynamic data of the vehicle dynamic table is closed, the data of the table is not rewritten. Rewriting (66, 67) and updating time to current time (65).

Receiving devices 32a, 32b and dispatching device 3
3, 34 reception data processing devices 321, 333, 343
The "vehicle search" function 321f (FIG. 6), 331d (FIG. 7) and 341d (FIG. 8) are the same. Therefore, here, the contents of the "vehicle search" function 321f of the reception data processing device 321 of the reception device 32a are shown in FIGS. 16 to 20, and the contents will be described.

The operator displays a road map including the boarding place of the transportation order received by telephone on the display device 323 with pen input, and designates the boarding place by pen input on the displayed map. When the ground mark is displayed and a vehicle allocation instruction input is given by pen input or key input, the "vehicle search" function 321f of the reception data processing device 321 performs "vehicle search". Alternatively, it requests the D / B server 31 to transfer the undelivered vehicle transport order group, receives them, displays it on the display device 323 with pen input, and displays one of the undelivered vehicle transport order groups. And a road map including the boarding place is displayed on the display device 323 with pen input, and the boarding place mark is displayed on the displayed map by specifying the boarding place with pen input, and the pen input is performed. Alternatively, when a vehicle allocation instruction input is given by key input, the "vehicle search" function 321f of the reception data processing device 321 performs "vehicle search".

When the reception data processing device 321 proceeds to the "vehicle search" 321f, when the search output mode specified by the operator's selection input is "only the highest priority vehicle", FIG. "Search for optimal vehicle" 321f1
When the search output mode is "assignment priority order", the process proceeds to "optimal vehicle search" 321f2 shown in FIG.

First, an "optimum vehicle search" 32 shown in FIG.
The content of 1f1 will be described. When proceeding to this, the reception data processing device 321 determines the district (area) α to which the position (latitude, longitude) of the boarding place of the transportation order belongs (1). Then, the highest priority 1 is given to the priority data j (2),
From the vehicle allocation rule table of the vehicle allocation rule memory 321n,
The area to which the boarding place belongs is α, and the priority is j = 1.
The search information [search area β, dynamics and company name (code)] is read out (3, 4), and the information is read out to the search area β read out by “distribution candidate vehicle search” (5). A search is made to see if there is a vehicle with the read dynamic of the company name, and if there is no corresponding vehicle, the priority data j is updated to the next rank (6, 7), and the search is performed in the same manner as described above. (3-7). If there is a corresponding vehicle, the vehicle having the highest priority is extracted and displayed on the display device 345 in the "vehicle allocation candidate vehicle search" (5), and the vehicle allocation data in which this vehicle is assigned to the currently allocated transport data. Is generated, and is generated by the D / B server 31 and the map display data.
To the data processor 341. In response to this, the D / B server 31 sends the vehicle FM No. in the vehicle allocation data to the vehicle allocation reserved table in the vehicle dynamic memory 312b. (This data is cleared when the vehicle changes from a state other than the actual vehicle to an actual vehicle), and the order memory 312a
(If this has not yet been created, create it and assign it to) the assigned vehicle FM No. Write.

Upon receiving the transportation order, the map display data processing device 341 automatically transmits the dispatch instruction to the vehicle assigned to the transportation order. This is performed by voice transmission using a voice synthesizer and subsequent data transmission. In the mobile station 1 of the vehicle, the transportation order is notified by voice, and then the transportation order is displayed on the display device 4.

FIG. 17 shows the contents of the "distribution candidate vehicle search" (5). In this candidate vehicle search, the reception data processing device 321 stores the vehicle dynamic memory 321 in the D / B server 31.
The vehicle dynamic data of the vehicles (i = 1 to n) registered in the vehicle dynamic table (Table 3) of b are sequentially requested (11 to 1).
3, 20), every time the dynamic data of one vehicle is received, the processing of steps 14 to 23 is executed. That is, first, in "Narrowing down candidate vehicles by vehicle allocation rule" (14) showing details of the contents in FIG. 18, a district γ in which a vehicle (attention vehicle) having obtained dynamics exists is determined (31). It is checked whether or not the district γ matches the search district β (32). If the district γ matches, the dynamics and affiliation (company name) of the target vehicle match the search information [dynamics and company name (code)]. Check (34, 35), and if they match, the target vehicle is set as a vehicle allocation candidate (36).

Then, referring again to FIG. 17, the dynamics of the target vehicle as a vehicle allocation candidate are checked (16, 2).
2) If the dynamic state is empty, a route between the current position of the vehicle of interest and the boarding place of the transportation order to be dispatched is searched for with reference to the road information in the map memories 321a and 321b ( Route search). Then, the travel distance and traffic regulation speed on each road on the searched route (route) are extracted from the road additional data included in the road information, and each road on the route is run at each speed limit. Are calculated, and the sum of them is calculated as an estimated arrival time (predetermined pick-up time). In the case where the dynamic state is “scheduled to be opened after a break”, a value obtained by adding a set time (a dispatchable time after a break: step 42 in FIG. 13) to the estimated arrival time calculated similarly is set as the estimated arrival time. If the vehicle of interest is “Scheduled to open after refueling”, a value obtained by adding the set time (reservable time during refueling: step 52 in FIG. 14) to the calculated expected arrival time is set as the expected arrival time. When the vehicle of interest is “Scheduled to open”, the calculated estimated arrival time is added to the set time (estimated opening time: FIG. 1).
The value obtained by adding the step 63) of 5 is set as the estimated arrival time.
Then, the information of the vehicle of interest is written in the allocation candidate second table (Table 5) (21, 22, 19).

[0093]

[Table 5]

If the vehicle of interest is "scheduled to be vacant", the estimated time of disembarkation (the time until the current passenger is unloaded) is calculated from the estimated arrival time and the current time (17). Next, a route from the scheduled drop-off position to the boarding place is searched, and the mileage and the traffic regulation speed on each road on the searched route are extracted from the road additional data included in the road information. -Calculate the time required to travel on each road on the road at each speed limit, and calculate the estimated arrival time obtained by adding the estimated time to get off to the sum of the times (18). Then, the dispatching candidate second table (Table 5)
Then, information of the vehicle of interest is written (19).

If the vehicle of interest is “standby”, the standby time from the update time (the time when the dynamic state becomes standby) to the current time is calculated, and attention is paid to the second vehicle allocation candidate table (Table 5). The vehicle information is written (23).

The above-mentioned search processing is performed by the vehicle dynamics memory 321.
When the execution is completed for all the vehicles (i = 1 to n) registered in the vehicle dynamics table (Table 3) of b, the vehicles that satisfy the condition of the priority order j are included in the second allocation candidate table. If there is, the vehicle No. And its activity and waiting time (if the activity is on standby) or expected arrival time (if the activity is not on standby)
Has been written. The reception data processing device 321 transfers the vehicle having the longest standby time (when the dynamic state is standby) or the vehicle having the shortest estimated arrival time (when the dynamic state is other than standby) to the transportation station.
(Distribute) vehicles (24, 2)
5).

Therefore, when the search output mode is "only the highest priority vehicle", the reception data processing device 321 matches the vehicle allocation conditions (search target area, dynamics, company name) from the highest priority. Search for vehicles that meet the same dispatching condition, the vehicle with the longest waiting time is searched for when the search condition is dynamic, and the estimated arrival time when the search condition is other than standby. The shortest vehicle,
The vehicle is determined to be dispatched, and the search for candidate vehicles stops,
The vehicle search for the low priority is not performed.

When the search output mode is "vehicle allocation prioritization", the reception data processing device 321 sets the priority in FIG.
321f2 shown in FIG. In this case, even if a candidate vehicle is searched for in a "distribution candidate vehicle search" 45 (detailed in FIG. 17) corresponding to the "distribution candidate vehicle search" 5 (detailed in FIG. 17), the search is performed there. Without ending the search, a vehicle that satisfies all the vehicle allocation conditions of all priorities is also searched (45-46-43 in FIG. 19). Then, in the “distribution candidate vehicle search” 45 (FIG. 20), “distribution route
Searching candidate vehicles (vehicle No.) in "Narrowing down candidate vehicles by vehicle allocation rule" 54 (FIG. 20) having the same contents as "Narrowing down candidate vehicles by vehicle allocation" 14 (FIG. 17 and FIG. 18 for details). , Dynamics, standby time or estimated arrival time, company name) are written in the second dispatching candidate table, and this data group is written in the first dispatching candidate table (FIG. 5) in the order of priority j. In the same priority order, writing is performed in the order of long waiting time (when the dynamics of the search condition is standby) or shortest expected arrival time (when the dynamics of the search condition is other than standby) (64:
(FIG. 20). When the search is completed up to the lowest rank, the reception data processing device 321 determines the data of the second vehicle allocation candidate table.
Are displayed in a list on the display device 345 with pen input.

When the operator designates a vehicle (for example, the first vehicle) in the list display and inputs an execution instruction by pen input or key input, the reception data processing device 321
Generates the dispatch data in which the designated vehicle is assigned to the current dispatch data, and transfers it to the D / B server 31 and the map display data processing device 341. D / B
In response, the server 31 responds to the request by the vehicle dynamics memory 312b.
The vehicle FM in the dispatch data on the dispatch reserved table
No. And the corresponding transport address in the order memory 312a.
Assigned vehicle FM No. Write. Upon receiving the transportation order, the map display data processing device 341 automatically wirelessly transmits the dispatch instruction to the vehicle assigned to the transportation order. This is performed by voice transmission using a voice synthesizer and subsequent data transmission. In the mobile station 1 of the vehicle, the transportation order is notified by voice, and then the transportation order is displayed on the display device 4.

After inputting the execution instruction, for confirmation or confirmation, the operator of the receiving device 32a uses the microphone 38 to transmit the voice to the vehicle which has issued the dispatch instruction as described above by wireless communication. Make calls. The driver on the vehicle can also use the microphone MIC with a built-in speaker to make a confirmation call or make an acknowledgment report.

The dispatching devices 33 and 34 include map data processing devices 331 and 341 and display devices 332 and 342.
These are road map displays 332, 342
The vehicle is displayed on the display map, and the vehicle present at the boarding place of the unordered transportation order and the area of the display map (to which the current position belongs) and its FM No. Are indicated by a mark and a number that can identify the vehicle dynamics. A boarding place and a vehicle that are out of the display map area are displayed in a blank area outside the map area.

The map data processing devices 331 and 341 read out the data of the vehicle dynamics memory 312b of the D / B server 31 at a predetermined cycle and display the data on the display devices 332 and 342 (vehicle dynamic marks). And its position: vehicle position). When a transportation order for an undelivered vehicle occurs, the boarding location is determined by the transportation order No. Is displayed together with the transportation order, and when the dispatch to the transportation order is completed, the boarding place and the transportation order No. are displayed. Clear the display of. The operator can visually recognize the position of the unordered transportation order (boarding place) and the dynamics of vehicles near the vehicle from the display on the display devices 332 and 342.

For example, as described above, when the reception data processing device 321 displays the candidate vehicle list on the display device 345 with pen input, the operator operates the display device 33.
2, 342, it is possible to determine a vehicle which the operator himself / herself sees as suitable, and designate it as the optimum vehicle on the list display. Also, the distribution of the transportation orders of unallocated vehicles on the display of the display devices 332 and 342 is compared with the distribution of waiting or empty vehicles, and the boarding places are densely distributed in the waiting or empty vehicles. The shift to the area can be instructed by wireless data transmission or telephone call, or the area where the transportation order (riding place) has a high density can be notified.

The operator of the vehicle allocation device 34 uses an index value referred to by the map display data processing device 341 in the determination of the excess or deficiency of the number of available vehicles in the index value table for each day of the week (weighted average for each past day of the week). Value) or a vehicle allocation result value on an arbitrary day in the past. When an index value table for each day of the week is designated, the map display data processing device 341 stores the index value table 341L in the index value table 341L.
The index value of the index value table for each day of the week in the demand number memory 311c of the D / B server 31 is written. Then the date (day of the week)
Map display data processor 341 automatically changes when
Obtains the index value of the changed day of the week from the D / B server 31 and writes it in the index value table 341L. When the dispatching actual value is set to an arbitrary date in the past, the operator is the date, year, month and day of the week (first, second,... Day) or year, month and holiday (first, second, second).・ ・ Holiday). This can be done at any time. For example, the operator instructs the map display data of the vehicle allocation device 34 to store an instruction to store the actual vehicle allocation result on the corresponding day (for example, a holiday) one year ago in the index value memory 341L.
When input to the data processing device 341, the map display data processing device 341 uses the index value storage function 341j to handle the date specified in the D / B server 31 via the data communication function 341f. Request the transfer of holiday dispatch results. The D / B server 31 that has received the request uses the demand number search function 319 to
From the demand number memory 311c, the vehicle allocation result (the vehicle allocation result for each area of the available vehicle number management area in the management area, for each area, for all areas) is searched and read out, and the data communication function 313 is read. The data is transferred to the map display data processing device 341 via the control unit. The processing device 341 writes the received data into the index value memory 341L.

The above is the description of the "setting of the index value for generating the excess / unsatisfied empty vehicle information".

The vehicle transmits the mobile station state information to the processing device 341 when the dynamic changes, and in response, the processing device 341 responds to the dynamic change from the empty vehicle to the other or vice versa. The data of the in-region empty vehicle number register of the transmitted vehicle addressed to the empty vehicle number management region to which the current location belongs.
When the data is updated (one decrement or one increment of the number of empty vehicles) and when the processing device 341 requests (polling) the transmission of the mobile station state information to each vehicle sequentially, the processing device 341 In the supply and demand transmission function 341k, the number of vacant vehicles in the vacant vehicle number register in each vacant vehicle number management region and the index value of each corresponding region in the time zone to which the current time belongs in the index value memory 341L (vehicle allocation result: past In this case, excess / deficiency data indicating “excess”, “appropriate” or “insufficient” is generated, and empty / excess information on the number of vacant vehicles (vacant vehicle number and excess / deficiency data) in each area is generated. Transmit to all vehicles for all areas. That is, the information on the excess / deficiency of the empty space for the entire area is transmitted to each vehicle. The following Table 6a shows an example of empty / excess information when a relatively narrow standby place such as a station, a recreational facility, a public facility, a business office, or the like is set as an empty vehicle number management area. An example of empty / excess information is shown when the management area is divided into a plurality of search target areas (Table 4) and each search target area (area) is used as an empty vehicle number management area. Note that both the standby place and the area may be set as the empty vehicle number management area.

[0107]

[Table 6]

[0108] Upon receiving the empty / excess information for all areas, the mobile station ECU 2 on the vehicle reads the information from the IC card CRD and writes it in the internal memory (display control memory) according to the display layout information. Then, the information on the excess / deficiency of the empty vehicle (the number of empty vehicles and the excess / deficiency data) is displayed on the two-dimensional display of the display device 4. The following Table 7a shows an example of display position information when a standby place is set as an empty vehicle number management area, and Table 7b shows an example of display position information when an area is an empty vehicle number management area.

[0109]

[Table 7]

The display position information designates a display position corresponding to the distribution of the waiting place or the area on the ground, and the display device 4 makes the two-dimensional display substantially correspond to the distribution on the ground according to the display position information. In accordance with the distribution, the number of vacant vehicles in the standby place or area is displayed, and each area corresponding block on the display is displayed in blue when it indicates "excess" according to the excess / deficiency data in the empty / vacant information,
Green display is used to indicate “suitable”, and red display is used to indicate “insufficient”. The following Table 8a shows a display example when a standby place is set as an empty vehicle number management area,
Table 8b shows a display example in the case where the area is the empty vehicle number management area.

[0111]

[Table 8]

From this display, the driver on the vehicle recognizes the distribution of the number of empty vehicles, the current number of empty vehicles in each region, and the excess or deficiency of empty vehicles. It is possible to operate with high operating efficiency, such as heading.

In the above-described embodiment, the excess or deficiency of the number of empty vehicles is represented by color-coded display, but may be displayed by characters such as characters and symbols. If there is a standby place or area that cannot be used due to the day of the week, time of day, etc., set “Unavailable” as the excess or deficiency display of the corresponding place and display it (for example, black display). An indication of what is not possible is also possible.
