Description

A system and method for providing information related to a destination using an alias name {A SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING DESTINATION CONNECTED INFORMATION}

The present invention relates to a system and method for providing information related to a destination, and more particularly, to a system and method for providing a destination-related information using an alias name for providing information related thereto according to a destination name input from the outside. .

In recent years, the increase in vehicles has led many people to drive directly to their destinations. Among them, the complicated road conditions and the increase in the number of vehicles have led to the lack of fast and accurate driving to the destination they want to find. Drivers often interfere with vehicles.

In addition, if the destination to go to is first-time or in a crowded city, the driver does not know exactly how to get to his destination, causing traffic congestion, or even severe traffic accidents. To prevent this problem, drivers should ask a passing pedestrian for a route related to their destination, or stop the route and open a map to see the route to the destination they want to go.

However, this method not only hassles the driver, but also has the disadvantage of damaging other vehicles following behind during a delay.

One of the ways to solve this problem is the navigation system. This system compares and calculates the current position of the vehicle by comparing and calculating the position information regarding latitude, longitude, and altitude received from a GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite and an output signal such as a gyro sensor provided in the vehicle, and the AV system installed in the vehicle. It is a car navigation system that displays the current position and direction of the vehicle on the map of the screen and provides various convenient information.

That is, the navigation system provides the driver with information about the moving direction of the moving object, the final distance to the destination to be traveled, the current moving speed of the moving object, the path set before the driver and the final path to the destination, and the like.

However, existing destination-related information providing systems including a navigation system having such a function provide the official name and the exact location-related information of the destination when the service users search for the destination-related information (for example, the final distance and the shortest distance). Provided related services that must be entered. As a result, service users often fail in information retrieval because they do not know the official name of the destination they want to go to.

In detail, in the case of searching for information (shortest distance, etc.) related to the name (building name, etc.), the existing destination-related information providing system provided relevant information only when an official name for the facility was input from the service user. For example, even if a similar name and related information about the facility are stored, if the official name is not entered, the search fails.

In the case of category search, facilities are categorized into categories selected by the service provider so that the service user can search them according to the classification. In this case, if the service user does not recognize the classification, the exact category cannot be found. do. In addition, in the process of finding a detailed category by selecting a classification menu on his terminal, the service user has to search for various categories.

In addition, even in the case of local search, the accurate classification of the local name and its related information are stored and managed. However, if a similar or commonly known local name is input from the service user, the search fails.

In addition, even in the case of the representative phone number search, the search and information are provided only when the representative phone number for the facility is input.

Therefore, if a similar name is input, even if it is not an official name for a facility or region name, a system and a method for providing related information in real time are required.

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to solve this problem, and to provide real-time information related to the destination of various names ranging from the official name of the destination, as well as the alias name, which is a common name used among clients. The present invention provides a system and method for providing a destination related information using an alias name.

In addition, the present invention provides a system and method for providing a destination-related information using an alias name that can variously provide a street and surrounding information related to the street, as well as each region when providing the destination-related information.
