Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to a method of searching for a specific divided area from a wide range of pattern areas. A desired sub-division area is searched for by repeating area limitation from a large-division area to a small-division area using a specific small-area pattern from a wide-range pattern area consisting of a set of area patterns. The present invention relates to a method of searching for a specific divided area.

[Prior Art] When searching for specific information from a large amount of information sources, it is generally not done to index using symbols, etc. attached in advance to each piece of information within a minimum range based on a specific idea. It is.

For example, like a map, the desired location is indexed from the surface of the map using n2 squares obtained by dividing the latitude and longitudinal directions into n equal parts as the minimum range. Since the direction was simply divided into n equal parts, it was not possible to create an index that subdivided the region, and due to the relationship with the scale, it was not possible to create a fine-grained and detailed index.

[Objective of the Invention] The present invention aims to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and is characterized by the fact that 41. A transparent sheet with a hexadecimal mesh code on which rectangular mesh division areas (n is a positive integer of 2 or more) are drawn corresponding to a predetermined mesh division level based on hexadecimal values is applied and localized, and the planned 16 By repeating area limitation from the mesh division area at the upper level to the division area at the lower level of the mesh division level in accordance with the hex call code, a desired specific division area is searched from the wide pattern area. This invention provides a method of searching for a specific divided area from a wide range pattern area.

[Summary of the Invention] The basic concepts of a hexadecimal mesh, a hexadecimal mesh code, a quaternary mesh, and a quaternary mesh code for carrying out the search method of the present invention will be described.

The basic concept of this invention is to divide a specific area into four equal parts vertically and horizontally, forming a total of 16 large-scale divided areas, as shown in FIG.
Assign a hexadecimal number from rAJ to "F". Next, each large-scale divided area is divided into four equal parts vertically and horizontally to form 16 medium-sized divided areas, and the divided area designation codes rOJ~``9'' and rAJ~rFJ 16 Assign a base number.

Furthermore, each medium-sized divided area is divided into four equal parts vertically and horizontally to form 16 small-scale divided areas, which are assigned divided area designation codes "0" to "9" and rAJ to rF in the same manner as described above.
Assign the hexadecimal number of J. By preparing 16 sheets of hexadecimal mesh code table 016 as described above, 16
The division area of all sheets is 16X16X16X16-65.
536 small-scale (unit) division areas are formed. Therefore, the division area designation codes rOJ~'9' and rAJ~r
Ultra-large division area G written on each sheet to which the hexadecimal number of FJ is assigned.

~Gp is the division area designation code "0" ~rFF, respectively.
FFJ will have a small division area assigned to it.

In this way, the divided areas in units of 16 are defined as a hexadecimal mesh 16M, and the divided area designation code is defined as a hexadecimal mesh code 16MC.

Next, as an example of dividing into 4 instead of 16 as described above, the ultra-large hexadecimal mesh divided into 4 as described above is divided into 22, in other words, it is divided into 16 large-scale 1 hexadecimal meshes as described above.
A specific divided area (extremely large-scale divided area) having a hexadecimal mesh is divided into extremely large-scale divided areas as shown in FIG. Assign a quaternary number from ``0'' to ``3'' as a designation code. Next, the area is divided into large-scale divided areas each having 16 large-scale hexadecimal meshes, and a quaternary number of divided area designation codes "0" to "3" is assigned to each large-scale divided area. Similarly, the next medium-sized 16 meshes have 16 small-sized hex meshes.
The meshes are divided into large and medium-sized divided areas in groups of four, and quaternary numbers of divided area designation codes "0" to "3" are assigned to these divided areas. Next, the area is divided into medium-sized divided areas each having 16 medium-sized hexadecimal meshes, and a quaternary number of divided area designation codes "0" to "3" is assigned to each medium-sized divided area. Next, divide the 16 small-scale hexadecimal meshes into four medium-sized division areas, and assign division area designation codes "0" to "3" to each area.
Assign a quaternary number of ``.

Furthermore, it is divided into small-scale division areas with 16 small-scale hexadecimal meshes as a unit, and divided area designation codes rOJ ~ "
Assign a quaternary number of 3. By preparing 16 such quaternary mesh code tables G4, 4X4x4x4X4x4X16=65,536 small-scale (unit) divided areas are formed in the specific divided area. Therefore, the super-large-scale divided areas GO-G33, which are grouped into groups of 4 with quaternary numbers of divided area designation codes rOJ to ``3'' assigned and written on each sheet, are divided into divided area designation codes ``0'' to ``3'', respectively. 333:3-3333J is assigned.In this way, a divided area in units of four is defined as a quaternary mesh 4M, and its divided area designation code is defined as a quaternary mesh code 4MG. do.

In this way, there are divided areas in units of 16 and divided areas in units of 4, in other words, hexadecimal meshes in units of 16, hexadecimal mesh codes (addresses) that specify the divided areas in hexadecimal numbers, and 4. It is used as a quaternary mesh code (address) that specifies a divided area using a quaternary mesh and a quaternary number.

The following table is a conversion table between the hexadecimal code and the quaternary code that mediates the binary values of the aforementioned hexadecimal mesh code that specifies the division areas in hexadecimal numbers and the quaternary mesh code that specifies the division areas in quaternary numbers. .

The attached parts have the same configuration as described above, and numbers 61^ and 61B corresponding to the decimal values of the XY coordinates are added to the two sides of the table 61.

Figure 6 is one of the three code assignment tables mentioned above.
As an example, the Shinmesh code assignment table is shown superimposed on a 1:50,000 map (northeastern Tokyo) 62.
Below, before describing the procedure for creating data specifying the location of a specific area on a map, in this case Tokyo Station, I will summarize the explanation a little. The relationship between the quaternary mesh designation code shown in FIG. 3 and the hexadecimal mesh designation code shown in FIG. The vertical and horizontal sides are divided into two halves as shown in Fig. 7, and one of the four ultra-large-scale division areas obtained is referred to as mesh level 0.5.
Divided area designation codes rOJ ~ Quaternary mesh codes of "3" are attached, and when each of these four mesh codes is expressed in binary, the quaternary mesh code "0" is roOJ, the quaternary mesh code "1" is "01", and the quaternary mesh code is "2
” is “10” and the quaternary mesh code “3” is “11”
'', and the upper left corner of this area A to which 2 bits of b are assigned is set as the origin of mesh coordinates ``oO''.

Next, divide area “Oj” with mesh level 0.5.

As shown in Figure 7 (C), rIJ, r2J, and r3J are each divided into 16 large-scale divided areas obtained by dividing the length ratio into two, and the numbers ``0'' to ``9'' and rAJ to rFJ are also assigned. Further display the division area designation code in hexadecimal numbers, b
2 bits are assigned to the mesh level 1.0.
The divided areas, arrangement order, and hexadecimal mesh code are fixed in hexadecimal numbers.

As shown in Figure 7 (Small), the 16 ultra-large-scale divided areas shown in Figure 7 (+C) are divided into
Divide into four divided areas for each ultra-large hexadecimal mesh obtained by dividing into equal parts, and use the divided area designation code rOJ.
~ Add a quaternary mesh code of "3" and use b4. to display this quaternary mesh code in binary. 2 bits of b6 are assigned, and this state is called mesh level 1.5.

As shown in Figure 7(e), the side length of each of the 1.5-dimensionally divided maximum-scale 4-part areas is divided into 1/2 equal parts, and the area is divided into 16 large-scale areas obtained by dividing the area in the same way. 16 of the designated codes “70” to “79” and “7A” to “7F”
A hexadecimal mesh code is assigned and two bits (b) are assigned to display these 16 hexadecimal mesh codes, and this state is called mesh level 2.0.

Below, as shown in Figure 7 +f+~(i+, 4
Area A is subdivided based on the concept of division and 16 division.

Figure 8 (ω is a diagram showing the relationship between mesh level, bit level, quaternary mesh and hexadecimal mesh, and quaternary mesh code and hexadecimal mesh code (address).Here, the hexadecimal mesh code for 1-th to n-th division is A hexadecimal mesh code (0 to FFFFn) that can be carried in units of 4 pits and divided by the most significant 4 bits is fixed as an absolute address, and by selecting a certain number of divided mesh levels, it becomes a relative address.

The number of meshes when treated as an absolute address is 65,536 (8 bits vertically and 8 bits horizontally) from O to FFFF.
The mesh number for each level, when treated as a relative address, is 4 at mesh level 0.5 and 16 at mesh level 1.0, as described above and shown in Figure 7 (ω ~ mountain).
Similarly, at mesh level 4 and 0, the number is 65,536, resulting in a total of 87,382.

The digits of the mesh code represent the level of each division mesh, and the relationship between the quaternary mesh and hexadecimal mesh is shown in Figure 8 (b).
As shown in , the division area of the hexadecimal mesh is obtained by dividing each primary division mesh (1st, 2nd, 3° 4th, Nth division) into 16 parts, and the division area of the 4-bit mesh is divided into 4 meshes at the primary level. It is a combination of decimal number (10), hexadecimal mesh code (168C), and quaternary mesh code (48C).
and the relationship between the binary code and the binary code is shown in FIG. 8+C).

At this point, we go back again and apply the hexadecimal mesh code assignment table 61 on the map 62 of northeastern Tokyo on a scale of 1:50,000, and find the location of "Tokyo Station" in the data entry form 6 shown in Figure 9.
Fill in 3. In this table shown in Figure 9, 64 is the mesh data entry field for 1/200,000, and 65 is 1.2, 5/50,000.

70 to 73 are columns for entering the name of the administrative district, and data names for 70 to 73 are, for example, "Tokyo,""Higashi,""Northern," or "Tsuka" and "Kyoto."
A data name entry column 74 is a column for entering the type of mesh, such as "station", which is expressed by a maximum of six characters, including three kanji characters such as "neck part" or three special characters.

Here, the mesh code of 1/200,000 is "0CO1",
This 1:50,000 map is the 1:200,000 map mentioned above.
If you guess the hexadecimal mesh code allocation table, you will find that it falls in the divided area of hexadecimal mesh code r7J, and Tokyo Station is located in the divided area of hexadecimal mesh code rAJ as shown in Figure 6 on a 1:50,000 scale map, and then this divided area 0 divided by 1/4
, 1/31.25 million is in the rBJ division area, so
The location data for Tokyo Station can be entered as r7A9BJ. That is, it is possible to zoom in and extract a map from a scale of 1/200,000 to a scale of 1/031,250,000.

The above is an example displayed in hexadecimal mesh code,
As shown in Figure 7 (ω~(i)), if a quaternary mesh code is used, it can be displayed as [1322-21, 23J, and in a binary code, it can be displayed as [01111010-10011011J.Furthermore, a hexadecimal pattern code and a quaternary pattern code can be displayed. If used, it can be displayed as shown in FIG.

The hexadecimal mesh code is a code to correspond to the CPU address, and the quaternary mesh code is a code to correspond to an external manual key and an index pattern code. The quaternary mesh code specifies the division area of the quaternary mesh by pressing the four input keys from rOJ to "3", and the mesh level by the number of times the mesh is pressed, and the hexadecimal mesh code specifies the mesh level by pressing the four input keys rOJ to "3". By pressing the 16 input keys of ~ rFJ, the hexadecimal mesh division area can be specified by the number of times the mesh level can be specified, or by filling in the area where information is located for each level, the external input key can be specified. It can also be made to correspond to

Information on these main points on the map is stored in the CPU's memory in hexadecimal mesh codes, that is, hexadecimal codes, as shown in Figure 9. From the mesh code or the map itself, it becomes "Tokyo 0CO1", [Tokyo Station 7A9BJ, and as mentioned above, "7" is the 7th page of the atlas, "A" is the A division area of the 7th page,
By indicating that "9" is a 9-division area within the A-division area and "B" is a B-division area within the 9-division area, the location of Tokyo Station can be accurately known.

Although not shown, by assigning one character to each mesh based on the mesh code table in a kanji character table, it is possible to assign a four-digit code to each kanji or character as described above, and it can also be used as a character search code. Can be used.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, the present invention divides a wide pattern area into 4n (n is a positive integer of 2 or more) square meshes into a wide pattern area consisting of a set of many small area patterns such as figures, characters, symbols, etc. A transparent sheet with a hexadecimal mesh code on which the area is drawn corresponding to a predetermined mesh division level based on hexadecimal values is applied and localized, and a mesh division level higher than the mesh division level is applied in accordance with a predetermined hexadecimal call code. By repeating the area limitation from the mesh division area to the lower level division area, the desired specific division area is searched from the previous two wide pattern areas, so that all the meshes at level n are located at the CPU address. By specifying the mesh level and division area at the same time, you can accurately specify the position and range of the whole. Selecting level 1 means reducing the whole to 1/16, and one of these meshes Specifying the mesh level means extracting a specific range from the whole, and here, controlling the mesh level means shifting the bit level, changing level 2 to C.
When supporting the entire RT screen (assuming mesh accuracy up to level 4), as mentioned above, shifting 2 bits to the upper bits will enlarge (doubling the mesh level accuracy), and shifting 2 bits to the lower bits. This can reduce the size (mesh accuracy becomes 1/2), and the mesh level, division area, and code (address) can be specified with four input keys, which has the effect of significantly increasing search speed.
