BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the present invention when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, It can be easily carried out. In the following description, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail since they would obscure the invention in unnecessary detail. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 shows a structure of an SOI generating apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, an SOI generating apparatus 100 includes a position information generating unit 110, a shape information generating unit 120, and an identifier information generating unit 130. The position information generating unit 110 generates position information, SOI structure information, SOI combination information, and the like on a map, and the shape information generating unit 120 generates point information, line (path) Information, and the like, and the identifier information generation unit 130 generates identifier information for identifying each SOI, and gives the generated identifier information to each SOI.

Here, the location information generation unit 110 generates location information, and generates and manages SOIs for location information. In addition, the location information generation unit 110 manages structure information when SOIs are generated to have a structure, and manages combination information when structures of SOIs are combined.

The location information generation unit 110 includes a unit structure generation unit 111 for generating and managing one SOI, a vertical structure generation unit 110 for generating and managing a vertical structure of SOIs so that a plurality of SOIs are included in one SOI, A horizontal structure generation unit 113 for generating and managing a horizontal structure of SOIs so that a plurality of SOIs are connected in parallel; a hierarchical structure generation unit 113 for generating and managing a hierarchical structure of SOIs so that a plurality of SOIs are layered in one SOI; And a layer structure generation unit 114 for managing the layer structure.

The vertical structure generation unit 112 generates SOIs in a vertical structure such that at least one other location information can be included in one location information, that is, at least one lower SOI is located in one SOI. For example, an SOI can be created to include building 1 and building 2 within area A. That is, the area A is generated as the upper SOI, and the building 1 and the building 2 are respectively managed as the lower SOI of the upper SOI.

The horizontal structure generation unit 113 generates SOIs in a horizontal structure so that a plurality of SOIs are horizontally positioned without a hierarchy. For example, an SOI may be generated such that Region B, Building 1, and Building 2 are horizontally connected to each other. That is, the area B, the building 1, and the building 2 are generated with respective SOIs and managed to be connected to each other.

The layer structure generation unit 114 generates and manages SOIs so that the SOIs can include a plurality of layers in one area or building, that is, a plurality of SOIs are layered in one SOI. For example, an SOI can be generated so that a plurality of SOIs are layered in one building. That is, one building is created as a higher SOI, each layer is divided into a lower SOI of a higher SOI, and each SOI is separately managed.

The shape information generation unit 120 generates shape information that is a substantial image such as point, line, area information, or building information on the position information, and manages the shape information in units of SOI. For example, the area may be imaged in the SOI unit, the building may be imaged in the SOI unit in the area, and the configuration in the building may be imaged in the SOI unit.

The identifier information generation unit 130 generates and manages the identifier information in the SOI generated by the position information generation unit 110 according to each structure. When one SOI is generated, the identifier information generation unit 130 assigns an SOI identifier corresponding to the generated SOI to manage information in units of SOI.

The generated SOI information can be utilized variously in the following examples.

2 shows a structure of a navigation device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 2, the navigation device 200 includes a control unit 210 that controls the device as a whole, a display unit 220 that displays a processing result of the control unit to the user, an input unit 230 that receives input from the user, A trackback information generating unit 250 for generating tracked information, and an SOI generating unit 260. The trackback information generating unit 250 may be configured to generate trackback information.

The navigation device 200 is not limited to ordinary navigation that is mounted on a vehicle and provides route guidance service. A device capable of providing a navigation service or a mapping service to a user may correspond to the navigation device 200 described in this specification. Specifically, mobile devices such as a smartphone, a tablet, a PDA, a telematics / HUD mounted on a vehicle, a laptop, a desktop PC, and the like may be applicable.

In the case of the navigation device 200 having a touch-based display, the display unit 220 and the input unit 230 may be provided to the user in the same form. However, the task of displaying the processing result in the navigation device 200 and the task of processing the user input can be performed by separate components.

The track information and its structure will be described later in detail with reference to FIG. 3, FIG. 4, and FIG.

The navigation device 200 must include the tracked information generating unit 250 and the SOI generating unit 260 (the SOI generating unit 260 may have a structure corresponding to the SOI generating apparatus 100 described above) It is not. The navigation device 200 may not include the generating units according to the configuration of the navigation device 200. In this case, the navigation device 200 may transmit the tracked information and the SOI information from an external device (eg, server) Not shown). In addition, when the information needs to be provided or the user input needs to be transmitted, the information / input can be transmitted to the external device through the transmission / reception unit. Of course, a commonly used configuration such as a storage unit, a GPS receiver, an acceleration sensor, an inertial sensor, etc., can be freely added / removed to / from the present navigation device 200.

Upon receiving a request for information about the SOI from the control unit, the information processing unit 240 collects information about the objects associated with the SOI from the tracked information structure. These objects may be content objects or SOI objects. Further, information on the relationship object described later can also be collected together. The collected information is processed and provided to be displayed on the display unit 220.

FIG. 3 shows a connection characteristic of a conventional WEB and a connection used in the related information of the present invention. Before describing FIG. 3, an object will be described. In this specification, an object refers to an object that can be created, edited, processed, and managed by a user, a device, or a component of a device. The above-mentioned content related to the SOI or SOI (Contents of SOI, COS) or the content existing separately corresponds to the object. It can also be managed as a conceptual object, such as a category or theme, or a subject, for classifying content or SOI. Furthermore, in the present invention, the relation between objects and objects is also managed as one object, i.e., a relation object. That is, the relationship object can be defined as one object including relation information that defines the relationship between SOI-SOI, SOI-content, or content-content. In addition to the relationship information, the relationship object may include identifier information for identifying the SOI / content associated with the relationship object itself or the relationship object.

Referring again to FIG. 3, in a conventional WEB (World Wide Web) environment, objects and objects are linked by a link called a URL (Uniform Resource Locator). An object in the WEB environment can be any webpage, image, video, flash file, or any other object that can be linked to a URL.

In the WEB environment, the connection between the first object 310 and the second object 320 has a unidirectional characteristic. The first object 310 may include URL information 301 and may be linked to the second object 320 based on the URL information 301. However, in general, the second object 320 does not provide a connection to the first object 310 because it does not have the URL information 301. [ (Even though the second object 320 includes a link (URL) connected to the first object 310, this is a special case of the unidirectional characteristic, but the connection in the WEB environment does not have a bidirectional property.)

In the tracked information structure proposed in the present invention, the connection between the first object 310 and the second object 320 has a bi-directional characteristic. The two objects are connected to the relationship object 302 (for reference, two objects may be connected to one or more relationship objects), and the relationship object may include identification information (ID) for bidirectionality. Due to the nature of bidirectionality, a generic object such as a first object 310 and a second object 320 (a generic object is distinguished from a relational object, unlike a relational object, (Which does not contain any information) can access an object, it can access all objects associated with that object (with a linking structure to the relationship object).

4 shows an example of the structure of the information structure. Referring to FIG. 4, the top-level object may be a theme, a category, a topic, and the like of the tracked information. Hereafter, it is referred to as a theme or a theme object for convenience.

The subobject may be content or SOI. For example, in the case of trackback information on the theme of Hyundai Motor (ie, the top-level object is "Hyundai Motor"), the contents include Hyundai Motor History, Hyundai Motor News, Hyundai Motor Vehicle, Supplier information, AS information, etc. SOI can be Hyundai Motor's headquarters location SOI, branch location SOI, location of research center SOI, location of overseas branch SOI.

A subobject can create a subobject again. For example, a content object 'A / S information' may have a location SOI of a point providing A / S as a subobject. However, the object located at the last stage in the tracked information structure necessarily has the SOI as an object. In other words, in a structured information structure, an object (called the lowest-order object) that has only one relation object with another object, except for the top-level object, must be an SOI object.

By the bi-directionality of the tracked information structure, all SOIs can access theme 1. All SOIs also have access to all content (three in the case of FIG. 4) and to all other SOIs (three in the case of FIG. 4). When the navigation device 200 receives the user input requesting the information on the specific SOI through the above-described property, it provides the theme information related to the SOI even if the corresponding SOI and the theme are not directly connected, Content information / SOI information can be provided according to the structure.

5 shows another example of the structure of the information structure. For reference, the tree structure is no longer maintained in Fig. Furthermore, the complex structure between these objects is independent of the representation of the drawing, and may exist in three dimensions. Referring to FIG. 5, the specific SOI 501 shown in FIG. 5 can access a total of three themes (theme 1, theme 2, theme 3). Accordingly, when information on a specific SOI 501 is requested, the navigation device 200 or the linked information processing unit 240 can extract a theme related to the specific SOI 501 and provide the extracted theme to the user.

On the other hand, if an SOI 502 different from the specific SOI 501 is selected, only one theme (i.e., theme 1) may be provided in association with the other SOI 502. That is, the theme provided in relation to the SOI can be determined by taking the relation between the top-level object and the bottom-level object as a target range with the corresponding SOI 502 as a starting point. However, depending on the embodiment, this limitation may not be made, and may be limited to the range up to the Nth highest object. Referring to FIG. 5, the theme 1 is the first highest object that can be reached from the SOI 502 when the SOI 502 is the reference, and the theme 2 and the theme 3 both reach the SOI 502 It becomes the second highest level object that can be. (If there are other themes connected in theme 2 or theme 3, the theme can be the third highest level object.)

The track information having such a structure can be created or edited in the navigation device 200. However, for reasons such as the specification of the navigation device 200, the generation of the tracked information may be performed in an external device such as a server of the service provider. The generation of the tracked information will be described with reference to Figs. 6 and 7. Fig.

FIG. 6 shows a structure of a tracked information generating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. The tracked information generating apparatus 600 may correspond to the tracked information generating section 250 of the navigation device 200 shown in FIG. 6, the tracked information generation apparatus 600 includes an SOI storage unit 610, a lower contents storage unit 620, a highest level object generation unit 630, a lower contents generation unit 640, (650).

First, the SOI storage unit 610 stores information on a space including location information, shape information, and identifier information (hereinafter referred to as SOI). That is, the SOI storage unit 610 stores a plurality of SOIs. The SOI may be generated by the SOI generating apparatus 100 described above with reference to FIG. 1, the SOI generating unit 260 of the navigation generating apparatus 200 described above with reference to FIG.

The lower contents storage unit 620 stores various lower contents including a text, an image, a moving picture or a combination of text, image, and moving picture such as a blog, a news item, an event, an advertisement, Here, the lower contents means all the contents that are linked to the lower part of the theme generated by the uppermost object generating unit 630. At this time, each lower contents includes at least one other lower contents or relation information with the SOI, and connection with other contents or SOI is possible through one contents. This relationship information is included in the relationship object, and the above connection is made by the relation object and thus has a bidirectionality.

The top-level object generation unit 630 generates a top-level content including the theme information of the composite object according to a request from the user.

The lower contents generation unit 640 generates lower contents according to a request from the user.

The relationship information generation unit 650 generates relationship information between the top level content generated by the top level object generation unit 630, that is, the theme and the bottom level content generated by the bottom level content generation unit 640. In addition, the relation information generation unit 650 searches the lower contents storage unit 620 for the lower contents requested by the user, and searches the SOI storage unit 610 for the SOIs requested from the user. Then, the relationship information generating unit 650 generates relationship information between the highest-level content generated by the highest-level object generating unit 630 and the searched lower-level content. In addition, the relationship information generator 650 may generate relationship information between the highest-order content generated by the highest-level object generator 630 and the retrieved SOI.

Of course, the relation information generating unit 650 may generate the first relation information between the highest content generated by the highest-level object generating unit 630 and the lower-level content generated by the lower-level content generating unit 640, 630) and the retrieved SOI.

The relationship information generating unit 650 generates first relation information between the highest content generated by the highest object generating unit 630 and the retrieved lower contents, And may generate second relationship information between the retrieved SOIs.

In addition, the relation information generating unit 650 may generate another (secondary) other sub-content to be re-arranged around (primary) sub-content arranged under the top-level content generated by the top- It is possible to generate relationship information between SOIs.

In addition, the relationship information generator 650 may generate the relation information between the lower contents or the other SOIs, which are related to each other, based on the SOI bound to the uppermost content generated by the uppermost content generating unit 630 have.

On the other hand, the relationship information generating unit 650 may change the title and description of the relationship information according to a request from the user.

In addition, the top level object generation unit 630, the low level content generation unit 640, and the relationship information generation unit 650 may provide an interface to the user through the input unit or the display unit of the navigation device 200. [

For reference, the input unit may select a specific SOI or a specific content from a list by a user, select a specific SOI or a specific content from a user on an electronic map, input a specific SOI or a specific content through a key input from a user It is possible.

Further, the input unit may receive information such as a relation order, a time attribute, a description of the content, etc. from the user. The information thus input may be included in the relationship information by the relationship information generation unit 650.

7 is a flowchart illustrating a method of generating tracked information according to an embodiment of the present invention.

First, the SOI storage unit 610 stores information (hereinafter, referred to as SOI) about a space including location information, shape information, and identifier information (701), and the lower contents storage unit 620 stores a plurality of lower contents (702). Then, the top-level object creating unit 630 creates top-level content, i.e., a theme object (703). Then, the lower contents generator 640 generates lower contents according to the request of the user (704).

Then, the relation information generation unit 650 searches for the lower contents and the SOI requested by the user in the lower contents storage means and the SOI storage means 705, and the relation between the theme object created in the uppermost object generation unit 630 and the lower- And generates first relationship information between the retrieved or generated lower contents (706).

The relation information generator 650 generates second relation information between the lower contents generated by the lower contents generator 640 and the retrieved SOI (707).

Although not shown in the flowchart, it is also possible that the relationship information generating unit 650 generates the third relation information between the content and the content or the fourth relation information between the SOI and the SOI. Through this process, The scalability can be enhanced.

Figure 8 shows a documented structure of the tracked information. Referring to FIG. 8, the structured information of such a structure includes a subject portion 810, and the subject portion includes an introduction portion 812, a text portion 814, and a concatenation portion 816 as a lower hierarchical structure. The subject section 810 corresponds to the above-mentioned top-level object such as a title, a subtitle, a theme, a category, a season, and the like. The introduction portion 812 and the concave portion 816 are disposed before / after or before / after the main body 814 and are not necessarily included in the main portion 810, but may be selectively provided.

The body text 814 may include a connection structure of the content-relationship object-SOI. In other words, a relationship object structure including a content object, an SOI object, and relationship information of both objects can be included in the body text 814. [ The content of the body text 814 can provide a connection to the associated SOI using the relationship information. (As mentioned above, the lowest-order object must be SOI.)

The body text 814 may include a lower hierarchy structure such as the small class # 1 (821) and the small class # 2 (822). This will be described in detail with reference to Figs. 9 and 10. Fig.

FIG. 9 shows a textual step expansion of the tracked information. Referring to FIG. 9, the top-level object corresponding to the subject 810 can be expanded to a lower hierarchical structure of the related entry 812, the main body 814, and the concatenation 816 by referring to the relational object R1 (901) . At this time, identification information such as an identifier (ID) included in the relationship object is used, and this identification information has a characteristic of bidirectionality. The body text 814 can be extended to the lower hierarchical structure of the content and sub-category related to the text 814 by referring to the relational object R2 (902) again.

Fig. 10 shows an extension of the small size step of the tracked information. Referring to FIG. 10, the small class # 1 821 can be extended to the lower layer of the small class introduction / main body / formation by referring to the relation object R3 (903) Can be repeatedly expanded.

11 is a conceptual diagram for editing the tracked information using a relational object. For the sake of convenience, they are collectively referred to as an " object " The first way to edit the tracked information using a relational object is to construct the tracked information through the existing relationship selection. Referring to FIG. 11, when selecting the relational object R1, all the coex mall 1101, Artium 1102, Art Hall 1103, and Megabox 1104 objects are selected. This is more convenient than selecting each object you want to edit. Also, as described above, a plurality of relational objects may exist between two objects, and only a part of a plurality of relational objects may be selected and edited. (As a result, the objects selected are the same, The relationship is specified.)

The second way to edit the tracked information using the relationship object is to construct the tracked information through the creation of a new relationship. For example, "Megabox" object 1104 and "j contentree co." And create a new relationship between the objects 1106 (create the relationship object R2).

For example, when the user edits the information bound by the selection of the relation object R1 and the creation of the new R2, the user has the effect of selecting the five objects and editing the tracked information. In addition, when all the selected relational objects are SOI objects, a new SOI covering all selected objects can be generated.

12 shows an apparatus for generating tracked information according to another embodiment of the present invention. The components of the tracked information generating apparatus shown in FIG. 12 may correspond to the components of the tracked information generating apparatus 600 shown in FIG. 6 according to the similarity / similarity of the functions to be performed. For example, the subject creator 1210 shown in FIG. 12 may correspond to the topmost object creator 630 shown in FIG.

12 may include a subject creation unit 1210, an introduction / closure production unit 1220, a relationship editing unit 1230, and a relationship determination unit 12240. [ Introducing / Converting The producing portion may be provided separately from the introducing producing portion 1221 and the forming portion 1222, respectively. Further, as described above, the introduction / formation producing section can be omitted.

The relation editing unit 1230 may include a relation object selecting unit 1231, a relation object generating unit 1232, a relation object successor 1233, and an SOI generating unit 1234. The relationship object selection unit 1231 performs the track information editing based on the existing relation selection, and the relation object generation unit 1232 performs the track information editing based on the new relation creation. The fact that the tracked information can be edited using a combination of existing relationship selection and new relationship creation is as described above with reference to FIG.

The relation object succession unit 1233 inherits information about an object or a relation object extended or indirectly connected by another relation object included in at least two objects directly connected to the relation object. By the higher-order relationship, the lower-order relationship can receive succession, and the SOI and contents linked to the relation object in the relation can be limited.

The SOI generation unit 1234 may connect a plurality of SOIs to a relationship object, and then generate the entire connected SOI as a new SOI. If a SOI object and an SOI object are connected, a new SOI can be generated. However, if a content and an SOI are connected, a new SOI can not be generated. (SOI has the characteristics of point, line, plane, and space, which is obvious in the nature of SOI.) When content and SOI are connected, SOI is connected to the content by simple connection.

The relationship determination unit 1240 determines a relation between at least two objects, i.e., a relation object, which is generated through an existing relation selection and / or a new relation creation. General information such as relationship information, identifier information for bidirectional connection as well as generation time, etc., may be included in the relationship object.

Figure 13 illustrates an exemplary method of providing information gleaned from a navigation device. Referring to FIG. 13, the navigation device 200 may provide a route guidance service, a map service, and the like. On the service screen, SOI 1 is selected by the user (1). The first information (2) is provided in response to the selection. The first information 2 may include SOI basic information, SOI additional attributes, and tracked information. The SOI basic information may include basic information specifying the SOI such as the position information of the SOI, the SOI shape information, and the SOI identification information. The SOI additional attribute may be provided by calling a telephone number corresponding to the SOI, setting the corresponding SOI as a departure / destination, and the like.

Based on the selected SOI 1 (1), the tracked information is grasped by the method described in FIGS. 4 to 5, and can be processed and provided in the tracked information processing unit 240. When the user selects a tracked information item, second information 3, which is a list of top-level objects associated with SOI 1 (1), may be provided. In this example, SOI 1 (1) is associated with three themes. When Theme 1 is selected by the user, the third information 4 is provided which includes the introduction 1, the main text, and the concatenated content that are connected to the theme 1 and the relational object and are located at the bottom (the introduction / collapse content is optional). For example, if the user selects content 2 in the body, fourth information 5 is provided that includes content 2 and an object that is linked to the relationship object and located in the sub-structure. The fourth information 5 may include the first SOI 1 as well as the lower content contents A and B. [ The fifth information 6 providing the lowest object is composed of only the SOI object.

The steps described above may be scaled down or expanded. In addition, when the SOI object is selected among the objects provided in each step, the step corresponding to the second information may be repeatedly provided. For example, when the SOI 2 object is selected in the fifth information step 6, the second information corresponding to the SOI 2, i.e., the basic information of the SOI 2, the additional attribute of the SOI 2, .

Meanwhile, the method of the present invention as described above can be written in a computer program. And the code and code segments constituting the program can be easily deduced by a computer programmer in the field. In addition, the created program is stored in a computer-readable recording medium (information storage medium), and is read and executed by a computer to implement the method of the present invention. And the recording medium includes all types of recording media readable by a computer.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. The present invention is not limited to the drawings.
