For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the candidate site output unit 310 may select one of the downward direction 1001 and the upward direction 1002 when the user location 1000 is located on a road capable of bidirectional traffic. Can provide a UI. The candidate site output unit 310 may expose the selection UI for all directions that can be traveled based on the user location 1000 based on the road information. As another example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the user location 1100 is near an intersection such as a three-way street, the selection UI may be provided to all directions 1101 to 1106 that are accessible according to the road information of the location. The arrow direction for each direction may be displayed based on the vehicle traffic direction of the country in which the user is located.

Referring to FIG. 12, the information provider 320 may provide arrival information 1221 and 1222 for each pickup direction 1001 and 1002 on the road through a map screen. In this case, the arrival information 1221 and 1222 may include a distance, a scheduled arrival time, an estimated fee, and the like, for each pickup direction 1001 and 1002 to a destination previously determined by the user. Since the time and the fare from the location to the destination may be different depending on which side the pickup is, the arrival information 1221 and 1222 may be provided so that the user can check the pickup location.

In addition, the information providing unit 320 may also provide guide information for the pickup direction 1002 when the user selects a specific pickup direction 1002 on the road. Since each pickup direction on the road is located on a different lane side, and in some cases, the user must cross the lane, the distance or route to the location of the pickup direction 1002 may be guided based on the user location 1000. Route guidance information can be provided, including crosswalks and overpass information for the road.

When the place where the user requests a pickup is a road, as shown in FIG. 13, the taxi driver terminal has a pickup direction selected by the user on a map screen indicating a pickup location according to the user's pick-up request received through the server 150 ( 1301 may be displayed, through which the taxi driver may easily determine not only the location on the road corresponding to the pick-up place but also the direction in which the user requested the pick-up.

Therefore, in the present invention, when a pickup service is requested on or near a road, a specific pickup direction may be selected and transmitted from the road.
