The reservation information acquiring process by the reservation inquiry unit 32 can be realized by a scrapping technique in which the system automatically performs inquiry using the user's personal information. More specifically, the reservation inquiry unit 32 can collect reservation information by a screen scrapping technique that automatically collects information on the screen provided when accessing the external server 4 using the user information have.

2A and 2B illustrate collecting the reservation information of the transportation means. However, it is also possible to acquire the reservation information of the user for the concert, the fair or the exhibition in the same manner, It will be readily understood by a person skilled in the art that the user's reservation information may be obtained.

The verification unit 33 verifies the travel information based on whether or not the reservation information of the user received from the external server 4 matches the travel information directly received from the user. In the following description, the user device 1 is a device of a user (or a first user) corresponding to a person to be verified of travel information, and the user device 2 is a dictionary (Or a second user) that has been verified by the user.

When the travel information of the first user received from the user device 1 is verified by comparison with the reservation information of the external server 4, the user matching section 34 sends the first user to another user Users). This may mean that the first user is allowed to receive another user's request to accompany the user, and / or the first user authorizes the user to browse another user's travel information and apply for the travel.

On the other hand, the verification result by the verification unit 33 may be set to be valid only for a limited period of time. At this time, the verification unit 33 may periodically or re-verify the travel information according to the request of the user. For example, after the first user and the second user have undergone their respective verification processes, one user (for example, the first user) can cancel the reservation of the transportation means or the accommodation means after promising to accompany each other . At this time, if the verification unit 33 performs the periodic verification, the verification of the travel information of the first user will fail due to the cancellation of the reservation.

At this time, the notification transmitting unit 35 may notify the fact that the travel information of the first user has failed to re-verify to the user device 2 of the second user who has promised to accompany the first user.

In the embodiment described above, the tourist matching device 3 is implemented in the form of a server communicating with the user device 1 of the user to be verified. However, this is exemplary, and in another embodiment the traveler-matching device 3 itself is implemented in the form of a user device, in which case a separate user device 1 may not be required. That is, a smartphone or the like, which is used by a user to be verified and installed with a dedicated application, corresponds directly to the tourist matching device 3, and a smart phone or the like performs the above-described operation of the tourist matching device 3 You may.

3 is a flowchart of a traveler matching method according to an embodiment.

3, a user who wishes to use the tourist matching service accesses the tourist matching device 3 from his or her own user device 1 and subscribes to the service member, and stores personal information of the user such as name, date of birth, resident registration number , Address, telephone number, etc.) to the tourist matching apparatus 3 (S11).

The user can also transmit his or her travel information to the tourist matching device 3 (S12). The travel information includes information on an event the user wants to participate in, information on the means of transportation and / or accommodation that the user is supposed to use, and also includes information such as the number of tourists, the age and sex of travelers, Information about the place (starting point, waypoint, destination, etc.), travel period (departure date, arrival date, return date, etc.), travel route, planned visit area or facility.

The information on the event, the means of transportation and / or the means of accommodation may be input by the user or may be input from an image obtained by scanning an image of the issued ticket on the user device 1 It is possible. Alternatively, by acquiring event information automatically by inquiring a server of a country, a municipality, or a private institution in the tourist matching apparatus 3, or by automatically inquiring the server of the transportation means or the accommodation means, And inputs the travel information from the user in a form in which the user who wants to transmit the travel information selects the participating event, the transportation means and / or the accommodation means from the information collected by the tourist matching apparatus 3 You can get it.

The information transmitted from the user device 1 to the tourist matching device 3 in the above-described steps S11 and S12 is an example of the case where the tourist matching device 3 is implemented as a server connectable in the user device 1. [ However, in another embodiment, when the tourist matching device 3 itself is implemented as a user device such as a smart phone, the steps S11 and S12 may be that the user inputs necessary information on the user device.

Next, the tourist matching device 3 acquires the personal information received from the user and the travel information received from the user from the external server 4 on the basis of the information on the event, the transportation means, and / The reservation information can be obtained (S13). The process of acquiring the reservation information acquires the reservation history output screen as shown in FIG. 2B from the online service page or the like provided by the external server 4 using the non-login method using the personal information and / or travel information of the user, And a scraping method for collecting necessary contents from the information on the display screen. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the user's personal information includes user's authentication information (e.g., ID, password, etc.) for the online service page of the external server 4, and the traveler's matching device 3 The user can log in the online service page of the external server 4 and obtain the reservation information of the user in a scraping manner.

In one embodiment, some or all of the personal information and / or travel information of the user used to obtain the reservation information from the external server 4 is deleted from the tourist matching device 3 after obtaining the reservation information. For example, it may be a security threat to keep sensitive information such as a user's resident registration number, ID, and password in the tourist matching device 3, so that the tourist matching device 3 scrambles the reservation information in the external server 4 It is possible to reduce the security risk by receiving the minimum necessary information from the user and immediately deleting such information after acquiring the reservation information through scraping.

The tourist matching apparatus 3 can verify the travel information according to whether or not the reservation information obtained when the reservation information is obtained from the external server 4 and the travel information directly received from the user are identical (S14). That is, when the user inputs a reservation number and a use date and time for a specific event, a transportation means, and / or a accommodation means, the tourist matching apparatus 3 determines that the reservation number corresponding to the reservation number and the use date / Confirms from the external server 4 whether the information actually exists in the transportation means and / or the accommodation means, and approves the travel information of the user only when the reservation contents actually exist. On the contrary, when the reservation number and the reservation contents corresponding to the use date and time entered by the user do not exist in the external server 4, the tourist matching apparatus 3 does not approve the travel information of the user, Not available.

When the travel information of the user is normally verified in the above-described process, the tourist matching apparatus 3 provides the matching result with other users to the user whose travel information has been verified (S15).

The provision of the matching result is performed by the tourist matching device 3 to the user device 1 based on the personal information and the travel information inputted by the user, And the like. For example, the tourist matching device 3 may provide information of a user, such as a traveler, a place of travel, and / or other users who have a travel period, as a matching result to the user of the user device 1. Alternatively, the tourist matching apparatus 3 may receive information such as a person, a place, and a period, which defines the conditions of the companion preferred by the user of the user apparatus 1 in advance, May be provided as a matching result.

In another embodiment, the traveler matching device 3 provides a user bulletin board to allow users to post their verified travel information, so that users can search for other users based on travel information, (S15). In this case, users can search for a suitable companion by filtering other users in the form of searching for a traveling person, a travel place, a travel period, and the like according to the condition of the companion desired by the user on the user bulletin board. In one embodiment, such a user bulletin board is privately operated for a user who has not been verified against the travel information, thereby preventing the travel schedule and place from being exposed unintentionally.

Next, the users determine the other users who wish to accompany the search based on the matching result transmitted by the tourist matching device 3 or the matching result provided by searching the user's bulletin board, It can apply to the matching apparatus 3 (S16). The traveler's matching device 3 can transmit to each user the travel information of the matched users to be shared with each other when the travelers are matched through application and acceptance between users. At this time, since the travel information of each user is verified in advance through the same process as the above-described steps S11 to S14, it is possible to prevent a user who posted false travel information from matching with another user.

4 is a flowchart of a traveler matching method according to another embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 4, the first user may request the second user to accompany the travel from the user device 1 through the tourist matching device 2 (S21). At this time, the second user can confirm the application of another user through his or her own user device 2, and decide whether or not to accept coexistence. If the second user accepts the companion, information about the companion acceptance may be transmitted from the second user device 2 to the first user device 1 via the tourist matching device 3 (S22).

If the matching between the first user and the second user is made (that is, the application and the acceptance of the companion for the travel) are performed by the above process, the tourist matching apparatus 3 searches the user matching unit 34 1) (S23). The stored matching information may include information about each user to be accompanied, information on a person to accompany, a place, period, time, etc. to be accompanied.

In one embodiment, the approval of the reservation information by the tourist matching device 3 is only valid for a limited period of time. At this time, the tourist matching apparatus 3 manages the verification validity period of the travel information of each user even after the matching between the users whose travel information is verified. When the verification validity period for each user is exceeded, the tourist matching apparatus 3 performs a verification process (S24 to S25) for comparing the personal information and / or travel information input by the user with the reservation information on the external server 4 Perform it again automatically. At this time, the user may be required to re-input at least a part of the user's personal information and / or travel information for scraping of the reservation information.

At this time, if revalidation of the travel information of any one of the users matching each other fails, the notification transmitting unit 35 (FIG. 1) of the tourist matching apparatus 3 transmits the re- The user is also notified of the re-verification failure (S26). For example, when the travel information of the first user of the user device 1 fails to be re-verified, the tourist matching device 3 may send a verification failure notification message based on the matching relationship of users previously databaseed To the user device 2 of the second user that matches the first user. The verification failure notification message may be sent to the user device 2 in any form such as e-mail, text message, push notification via application (S26). In addition, the verification failure notification message may also be transmitted to the user device 1 of the first user who failed verification (S27).

This embodiment is for preventing a malicious user who wants to post false travel information from avoiding the verification by a method of canceling the reservation of the transportation means or the accommodation means once the user has passed the verification of the travel information. When the validity period has elapsed after the initial verification of the travel information, revalidation is required. If the revalidation fails, the verification failure message is automatically transmitted to the matched users. Therefore, when the travel information of the other party Thereby preventing users from matching with users having false travel information.

According to the traveler matching apparatus and method according to the embodiments described above, information on transportation means and / or accommodation means uploaded by a user to a user who wishes to travel with another user and information on a server It is possible to prevent recruitment of a companion through false travel information by verifying whether or not the retrieved reservation information coincides with each other. In addition, since only the traveler who actually made the reservation for the transportation means and / or the accommodation means can match with the other travelers, it is possible to prevent a safety threat that may occur when the first- There is an advantage that users seeking a companion of a user can eliminate the possibility of a user being exposed to danger such as fraud or crime.

Meanwhile, the operation by the traveler matching method according to the embodiments described above can be at least partially implemented in a computer program and recorded in a computer-readable recording medium. The program for implementing the operation by the traveler matching method according to the embodiments is recorded, and the computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording apparatuses in which data that can be read by a computer is stored.
