Referring to FIG. 3, the GML data processing according to the present invention receives a file in a GML format (S210), and extracts data included in the input file (S220).

At this time, the data is extracted by reading lines one by one from the input GML file, and it is determined whether the extracted data is valid (S230). In the GML data processing of the present invention, map information such as an interest information schema representing interest information or map representation coordinates or map representation attributes (polyline, line, etc.) is defined as valid data.

If the extracted data is the interest information (S240), the corresponding interest information data is stored in an internal format (S260), and if the map information (S250), the corresponding map information data is stored in an internal format (S270).

The data other than the valid data is deleted to clean up the data (S280).

As described above, storing and managing the interest information and the map information separately in the GML data processing according to the present invention can shorten the time required for map visualization or interest information search according to a user event, compared to the integrated management.

4 is a flowchart illustrating tag information processing of the interest information management and integration method according to the present invention.

The tag information is in XML format. The root element is the total number of tag information, the tag name is the element according to user definition at the bottom, and the ID is set as an attribute to match the tag through the interest ID value. Can be induced. In addition, tag information is generated during tagging in the process of editing the information of interest.

Referring to FIG. 4, the tag information processing of the present invention determines whether an existing tag exists (S310), and generates a new tag when the existing tag does not exist (S311). In this case, since the existing tag does not exist, the root element of the newly generated tag has the number of tag information as 0, and generates tag information according to the generation of a new tag during the editing process of the interest information processing according to FIG. 5.

If there is an existing tag, the existing tag information is input (S320), the corresponding tag information is extracted (S330), and whether valid data of the extracted information is determined (S340).

According to an embodiment of the present invention, in step S340, the encoding information included in the tag information, the element name representing the total number of sub-tags and element tags of the root element excluding StartTag (<), EndTag (/>), etc. An ID is defined as valid data.

Data other than the valid data is deleted and arranged (S341), and the data determined to be valid data is generated and stored as processed data in a tree form through tag information analysis (S350) (S360).

5 is an interest information processing flowchart of the interest information management and integration method according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the interest information processing of the present invention loads interest information data stored in the GML data processing of FIG. 3 and loads processed data which is tag information stored in the tag information processing of FIG. 4 (S410).

Then, the tag information is compared with the ID value, which is the element attribute, in the tag information and the value of the tag of the same interest information, and the data having the same value is matched to classify the matched interest information by the element name of the tag information. The information is output to the screen (S420).

The user can edit or delete existing tag information or create a new tag by referring to the tag information displayed on the screen. Editing of tag information is updated by overwriting existing tag information.

After matching the tag information with the interest information and outputting the tag information, if an interest information search input is received from the user (S430), it is determined whether to search by one or more search methods of tag search, hierarchical search, and region search (S440). ), The interest information data is generated through the search (S450).

At this time, the generated interest information includes a business name, an address, a telephone number, a feature, a homepage, and the like, and checks whether there is a representation of a building's business name on a map and tags the interest information.

The generated interest information is displayed on the screen to indicate a search result. In this case, the interest information is preferably output in a popup form (S460).

The output interest information may be modified in a popup window, and the modified interest information is stored in the storage (S470).

6 is a flowchart illustrating a map information processing method of the interest information management and integration method according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 6, the map information data stored in the GML data processing of FIG. 3 is loaded (S510), and the building and the road are determined based on the attribute of the map based on the extracted map information (S520).

Subsequently, in order to support the search for the information of interest, the search area is set by the area and the center coordinate (S530), and the color of the building and the road is differently set in order to distinguish the map (S540). According to the value, visualization for screen output of buildings and roads is performed (S550).

Finally, the map is output by integrating the visible buildings and roads (S560).

7 is a flowchart illustrating tag information GML integration processing of the interest information management and integration method according to the present invention.

The tag information GML integration process is a process of integrating a new GML file based on newly added or modified tag information, interest information, and map information.

Referring to FIG. 7, the map information data stored in the GML data processing of FIG. 3 is loaded (S610), and the GML basic schema, which is a basic skeleton of the GML file, is generated by referring to the GML grammar definition (S620).

Meanwhile, in the interest information processing of FIG. 5, the interest information is edited and loaded through the tagging process, and the modified interest information is loaded (S620), the tag is set based on the loaded interest information (S630), and the GML grammar definition is referred to. In operation S640, an interest information schema in which interest information is added to the GML basic schema is inserted.

The generated interest information schema is inserted into the GML basic schema to insert interest information matching each building information included in the basic skeleton (S650).

After that, by checking the schema validity (S640), if valid, finally generates a GML file integrating XML tag information and interest information (S650).
