Hereinafter, a process of setting the first ROI will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 through 13.

10 to 13 are diagrams illustrating a first region of interest zone.

10 to 13, the first region of interest zone may be displayed as a closed region on the region of interest setting map. These examples are merely examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

The first region of interest zone includes an area set as a closed region on the region of interest setting map by the region of interest setter. In one embodiment, the first ROI area may be set through a relative coordinate system used by itself in the ROI monitoring server 110 as location information about an area displayed on the ROI setting map. In another embodiment, the first region of interest zone may be set through an absolute coordinate system such as GPS as position information on the region displayed on the region of interest setting map. In such embodiments, the interest zone monitoring server 110 may transmit a coordinate system together when transmitting the interest zone setting map to the interest zone setting terminal 120.

Here, the relative coordinate system adopts a map displayed on the interest zone setting terminal 120 and a relative coordinate with respect to the first region of interest zone on the map, and the interest zone monitoring server 110 may include an identifier corresponding to the map. You can calculate absolute values with relative coordinates. The absolute coordinate system adopts absolute coordinates such as a map in the interest zone setting terminal 120 and a GPS on the map, and the interest zone monitoring server 110 generates a first interest zone designed by the interest zone setting terminal 120. Receive coordinates relative to the area.

In one embodiment, each of the first region of interest zones may correspond to one of a safety zone or a danger zone. Here, each of the first ROI areas may correspond to a closed area set in the form of a circle, an ellipse, or a polygon through a drawing tool.

In one embodiment, each of the first region of interest zones may be comprised of an exclusive closed region. For example, in FIG. 10, each of the first region of interest zones is set independently of each other, and may be set in a separate region without including a specific region in common. That is, in FIG. 10, the monitoring information includes a first interest corresponding to the danger zone 1020 indicated by a circle on the interest zone setting map 1010, the safety zone 1030 indicated by an ellipse, and the safety zone 1040 indicated by a polygon. It may include a zone area. More specifically, the interest zone setter is a safety zone 1020 or a closed area in an area determined to be safe or dangerous when the interest zone monitoring target is located on the interest zone setting map 1010 provided to the interest zone setting terminal 120. Danger zones 1030 and 1040 may be indicated, and the interest zone setting terminal 120 may generate the area as the first ROI. Here, the first region of interest zone may be set to a circle, an ellipse, or a polygon according to the characteristics of the actual feature through the drawing tool, and thus, the first region of interest may be set in more detail.

In another embodiment, each of the first zones of interest may be comprised of non-exclusive closed regions. That is, each of the first region of interest zones may be non-exclusively including the specific region in common, not the exclusive closed region that does not include the specific region in common. Here, the first region of interest zone may constitute a nesting relationship. More specifically, the nested relationship means a relationship that may include another region therein, and the first region of interest zone may be a first region of interest zone different from the superzone region of interest that may include the region of interest subzone therein. It may correspond to a subzone region of interest that may be included in the. For example, in FIG. 11, the first region of interest zone 1110 corresponding to the safety zone may include at least one first region of interest 1120 and 1130 corresponding to the danger zone. That is, the safety zone 1110 corresponds to the superzone region of interest, and each of the danger zones 1120 and 1130 included in the superzone region of interest corresponds to the subzone region of interest. Herein, the superzone region of interest may include the subzone region of interest without excluding zones corresponding to each other. That is, the superzone of interest corresponding to the safety zone may include a subzone of interest corresponding to the danger zone, and the superzone of interest corresponding to the safety zone may also include the subzone of interest corresponding to the safety zone. have. Certain hazardous areas (eg hazardous locations) may exist within the safety zones, and safe areas (eg police stations) may also exist inside the danger zones. You can set the area.

In FIG. 12, each of the first ROI areas may have an interest zone level. Here, the zone of interest level may correspond to either a safety level or a risk level. More specifically, when the first zone of interest zone is set in the interested zone setting terminal 120, the safety level may be set together with the closed zone corresponding to the safety zone, or the closed zone corresponding to the danger zone may be set. You can set the risk level as well. For example, the risk level 1 may be set together with the risk zone 1210 corresponding to the superzone region of interest, and the safety zones 1220 and 1240 and the risk zone 1230 corresponding to the subzone region of interest may be set. The safety level 3, the risk level 2 and the safety level 1 can be set. Here, each subzone of interest may also include zones corresponding to each other, and the interest zone level may be set together.

Referring back to FIG. 2, the location reception verifying unit 230 verifies the location reception validity of the location transmission terminal associated with the identifier of the received location transmission terminal. More specifically, the location reception verification unit 230 may determine the location transmission terminal 130 based on the identifier of the location transmission terminal 130 received from the interest zone setting terminal 120. Here, the location reception verifying unit 230 may verify the location reception validity by verifying whether the determined location transmission terminal 130 exists and whether the location transmission terminal 130 transmits location information. That is, the location reception verifying unit 230 may verify the validity of the interest zone monitoring by considering the location information of the determined location transmission terminal 130 transmitted from the terminal of the interest zone monitoring target.

The position system converter 240 converts the first region of interest into a second region of interest having an absolute position system. Here, the transformation may include a simple pass, and if the first region of interest has an absolute position system, the position system converter 240 may use the first region of interest as the second region of interest.

More specifically, the first ROI area may be set through a relative coordinate system used by itself in the ROI monitoring server 110 as location information about the area displayed on the ROI setting map. Here, the relative coordinate system adopts a map displayed on the interest zone setting terminal 120 and a relative coordinate with respect to the first region of interest zone on the map, and the location system converter 240 may identify an identifier corresponding to the map. You can calculate absolute values with relative coordinates. That is, the absolute position system adopts absolute coordinates such as GPS, and the position system converting unit 240 converts the relative coordinates of the first region of interest zone designed by the zone of interest setting terminal 120 into absolute coordinates such as GPS. (E.g., latitude and longitude). That is, the second ROI is data obtained by converting the first ROI to absolute position coordinates, and the location determiner 250 may compare the second ROI to the absolute position of the location transmitter terminal 130.

For example, in FIG. 10, the location system converter 240 may convert the danger zone 1020 set in a circle into a second region of interest having an absolute location system. According to an embodiment, the second region of interest zone may correspond to data obtained by collecting absolute coordinates of positions corresponding to major points on the outline of the first region of interest zone 1020. That is, the second region of interest zone is {latitude 12.1, longitude 38.1; Latitude 12.2, longitude 38.2; Latitude 12.3, longitude 38.3; ...}. In another embodiment, the second region of interest zone may correspond to data including an absolute position coordinate corresponding to the center of the first region of interest zone 1020 and a distance from the center. That is, the second ROI may correspond to {latitude 12.8, longitude 38.1, radius 100M}.

In an embodiment, the position system converter 240 may set a guard area based on the converted second region of interest zone. The guard area refers to an area surrounding the second region of interest zone by a specific distance. Here, the specific distance from the second region of interest zone may be preset by the interest zone setter in the interest zone setting terminal 120 or automatically set by the location system converter 240. When the location transmitting terminal 130 estimates its own location, an error range according to an estimation method (ie, GPS, WPS, or CPS) may occur, so the location system converter 240 monitors the zone of interest by setting a guard area. It can be known in advance that the subject is close to the second region of interest zone. In FIG. 13, the position system converter 240 converts each of the first ROI regions 1020, 1030, and 1040 into a second ROI region, and surrounds the guard region with a specific distance based on the second ROI region. 1310, 1320, and 1330 can be set. Here, since the guard region is set based on the second region of interest zone, the guard region may correspond to data obtained by collecting absolute position coordinates of a position surrounding a specific distance from the absolute position coordinates of the second region of interest zone.

The location determiner 250 receives an absolute location from the location transmitting terminal 130 and determines whether the location transmitting terminal 130 is within an error range of the second region of interest zone.

First, when the location reception verification unit 250 determines the location transmission terminal 130 based on the identifier of the location transmission terminal 130 and verifies the location reception validity, the location determination unit 250 determines the location transmission terminal 130 determined. Receive the position of). Here, the location transmitting terminal 130 may transmit its absolute location estimated through GPS, WPS or CPS to the location determiner 250.

Next, the position determiner 250 determines whether the absolute position of the position transmitting terminal 130 is within an error range of the second region of interest zone. That is, the position determiner 250 may determine whether the latitude and longitude of the location transmitting terminal 130 are included in the second region of interest zone, which is position coordinate data corresponding to the closed area outline of the first region of interest zone.
