And Figure 2 is a view showing a simplified map 200 showing the life range of the information provider according to the present invention.

The present invention is a method for providing location-based information embodied as a computing device and including location information for a store, receiving location information on a living place and recommendation information for the store from an information providing terminal (110), and ; A classification step 120 of determining whether the store is located inside or outside of the living range 220 determined from the living place using the two location information, and classifying and storing the recommended information as the inside or outside It characterized in that it is made, including.

Recommendation referred to in the present invention may mean recommendation or evaluation. Therefore, the recommendation information mentioned in the present invention may mean recommendation or evaluation information.

An information providing terminal mentioned in the present invention, a user terminal to be described later, or a counterpart terminal to be described later refer to a terminal to which a user, an information provider, or a counterpart provides information, respectively. In addition, the information providing terminal, the user terminal, or the counterpart terminal mentioned in the present invention may be the same terminal, which is merely a classification according to the position of providing information, consuming information, or obtaining information.

The location information of a store, a living place, or a place of interest to be described later may be provided as a location or range. In this case, when transmitted to the range, administrative districts such as li, eup, and dong may be provided. Similarly, the location information of the store may also be provided by location or range.

Therefore, being located within the living range mentioned in the present invention means determining whether the store is within the living range 220 determined from the living place using the location information of the store and the living place. It doesn't matter what criteria you use at this time.

As an example, when the location information of the store and the living place are both transmitted to the location, it is determined that the store is located within the radius 220 determined from the living place 210 as shown in FIG. 2. I can. And if the living place is provided as a range, the living range may be the same as the provided range or a range newly defined from the provided range. If the store is included in the living range, it can be determined as the interior.

In addition to this, there may be cases in which both the store and the living place are transmitted to a range, that is, an administrative area. In this case, the interior may determine whether the store is located in the interior by whether one range is partially or entirely included in the interior of the other range, and this may also vary according to the implementation method. However, as a specific example, the location information of the store and the living place may be generally provided as a location.

The information provider mentioned in the present invention, the user and the counterpart to be described later can create an account by performing a sign-up procedure through a corresponding terminal and transmit their respective location information, recommendation information, or used article information to be described later. Alternatively, the user may be provided with the recommended information, the used goods information, or the counterpart information to be described later by providing a place of interest from a corresponding terminal without the registration procedure.

In the present invention, the living place may be at home or at work, or both.

The living place may be the information provider's own home or work, or both. The living place is a place where the information provider spends the most time, a place with a regular store that is used regularly, and a place that knows the rumors about the store better than anyone else. For this reason, the present invention can provide a method of determining whether the store is located inside or outside the living range, and providing the recommended information for the store separately to the inside or outside.

The recommendation information mentioned in the present invention may include at least one of whether or not to recommend the store, a recommendation score, or a recommendation reason. The recommendation score may be provided in any manner capable of recognizing a difference in recommendation or evaluation, such as a score or an asterisk. The reason for the recommendation is to provide the subjective reason provided by the information provider to the store, and this may include subjective judgments such as what is good and the other is bad.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a simplified map 200 showing shops 231, 232, 235, and 236 located inside and outside the living range 220 according to the present invention. The drawing explains the living place and the range of life and tells a method of classifying recommended information for a store.

In the case of the drawing, the living place 210 of the information provider is provided as a location. In this case, the living range may be set to a certain radius from the living place. In addition, unlike the above drawings, the living range may be an administrative area.

The stores 231, 232, 235, and 236 may be classified into stores 231, 232 located inside the living area 220, which is a certain radius from the living place 210, and stores 235, 236 located outside. That is, the present invention may be to classify whether a store recommended by an information provider is located inside or outside the life range of the information provider, and classify the recommended information for the store into the interior and exterior, and expose to the terminal.

In addition, the store mentioned in the present invention may be a place that sells a specific product or provides a service, and a place that provides a specific service such as an amusement park may be included in the store. Therefore, the store referred to in the present specification may be a place schematically representing a certain range, not a specific place, such as a market or a specific tourist place, etc.

3 is a screen 300 of a terminal showing recommendation information 310 for a store searched at a user's point of interest according to the present invention. And FIG. 4 shows a screen 350 of a user terminal according to the present invention when 00 restaurant 1 is selected from among the recommended information shown in FIG. 3.

Hereinafter, a specific example according to the present invention will be described in detail through FIG. 3 or FIG. 4.

The present invention comprises the step 130 of receiving location information on a place of interest from a user terminal; A search step 140 of searching for the store located within the interest range determined from the interest place; And an exposure step 150 of controlling to expose to the user terminal by classifying (312, 313, 381) the recommendation information for the store searched in the search step according to the classification step.

Classifying according to the classification step mentioned in the present specification means that the store recommended by the information provider is located inside or outside the life range of the information provider, as shown in FIG. It means to classify as. That is, in the case of FIG. 2, the recommended information for the store is classified into stores 231 and 232 located inside the living range 220 and stores 235 and 236 located outside, and the stores located within the interest range of the user It may be to expose recommended information for the user terminal.

Specifically, in the case of FIG. 3 or 4, recommendation information for stores located inside or outside the living range is classified (312, 313, and 381) into the names of residents or outsiders, respectively, and exposed on the screen of the terminal. That is, in the case of the above drawing, it means that the classification is divided into residents and outsiders according to the classification stage. As will be described later, the resident score 312 in the drawing is an average of the recommended scores provided by multiple information providers for the corresponding store. Referring to the drawing of FIG. 2, the name of the resident refers to a case in which recommendation information on stores 232 and 232 located inside the living range 220 of the information provider is provided as an outsider. Likewise, the name of the outsider refers to a case in which recommendation information for stores 235 and 236 located outside the living range 220 of the information provider is provided. In the case of the drawing, the classification is expressed as a resident and an outsider, but the expression may vary.

In the case of FIG. 3, the screen 350 according to the present invention includes a location menu 301 and a range menu 305 for selecting a point of interest and a range of interest that a user wants to search, and recommendation information 310 for a store. Consists of.

Here, the location menu is a menu in which the user selects a place of interest in which the recommended information of the store is to be exposed. In the case of the screen 300, a current location as a place of interest, a place of interest, or a home and a workplace as a living place can be selected through the location menu 301. Therefore, in the present invention, the place of interest may include a place of living.

In the case of the drawing, the interest range can be selected from the range menu 305. At this time, the point of interest refers to a place that the user wants to search for, and recommendation information for a store located within an interest range determined based on the point of interest may be exposed on the user screen.

That is, in the present invention, the point of interest is a place where a user wants to search for a store, and the interest range refers to a search range of a store determined from the point of interest. The scope of interest may be determined on the same principle as the above-described life scope.

Accordingly, the meaning of defined in the interest range determined from the place of interest in the present specification means that the interest range can be provided by a user or an interest range already set as a default in the corresponding system can be used. In the case of FIG. 3, a range of interest is made to be provided by a user.

In the case of FIG. 3, the recommendation information 310 exposes a plurality of searched stores on the screen in the form of a list, and the recommendation information of each store includes recommendation scores 312 and 313 of the corresponding store. In the case of FIG. 3, the user sets the current location as the point of interest and the interest range is set as 5 km. In this case, recommended information 310 of a store located within a radius of 5 km from the current location is exposed on the screen. The current location is location information obtained by the location acquisition function of the terminal, which will be described later. In the case of the drawing, the range of interest may select a distance such as 5km or 10km as shown in FIG. 3 or an administrative area such as dong, ri, or eup. Therefore, the interest range may be an administrative area selected by the user terminal as described above.

In the present invention, the location information on the place of interest may be obtained using a location acquisition function of a corresponding terminal.

The location acquisition function of the terminal may be the location information of the terminal acquired through the GPS of the mobile terminal, a base station, a beacon, or any device having a location acquisition function, or a combination thereof. Therefore, in the present invention, the location acquisition function does not matter which method is used as long as the location can be acquired through the terminal. However, as a specific example, the terminal having a location acquisition function may preferably be a mobile terminal.

In the case of FIG. 3, the current location of the location menu 301 is the location information obtained through the location acquisition function of the user terminal, and thus the screen 300 is an interest determined based on location information acquired through the terminal. Stores located within the range are searched and the corresponding recommended information is exposed in the form of a list.

The present invention includes the steps of receiving location information on a place of interest from a user terminal; A search step of searching for the store located within an interest range determined from the interest place; When the recommendation information includes recommendation scores (312, 313, 382, 383) and the number of recommendation scores for each of the stores is multiple, the recommendation scores for each of the stores searched in the search step are averaged and classified It may be made including an exposure step of controlling to be exposed to the user terminal by classification (312, 313, 381) according to steps.

The recommendation score corresponding to the above store refers to the recommendation score for each store.

In the present specification, the average may include a general average or an average of a weighted average. As a specific example, an information provider may generally provide a recommendation reason as recommendation information along with a recommendation score for the store.

The screen 350 shown in FIG. 4 is a user terminal screen 350 showing recommendation information for the selected store when one store is selected from among a plurality of searched stores shown in FIG. 3. The screen 350 includes a location menu 301 in which a user can select a place of interest, basic information on the store 360, recommendation information 380 provided by an information provider, and a recommendation score included in the recommendation information. It consists of a recommended average score 370.

The screen 350 shows a case in which a number of information providers provide the recommendation information 380 for a store of 00 restaurant 1. The recommendation information 380 includes the recommendation score (382, 383) provided by each information provider and the reason for recommendation, averages the recommendation score (382, 383) of the information provider, and classifies (381) the resident score (312) or foreigners. It was exposed on the screen with a score of 313.

At this time, the resident score and the foreign score are classified into locations within and outside the living range as described above. Specifically, the resident score 382 indicates that the information provider provided recommendation information for stores 231 and 232 located within the range of their own life, and the outsider score 383 is This indicates that the information provider has provided recommended information for stores 235 and 236 located outside of their living location. In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the recommended information 380 for the store provided by each information provider may be classified 381 as a resident or an outsider and displayed on the screen of the user terminal.

The basic information 360 about the store generally includes location information 361 about the store, which may be provided by the information provider or may be provided in advance. In addition, the information provider may subscribe to the recommendation service according to the present invention, create an account, log in, and provide recommendation information 380 including recommendation scores (382, 383) for a specific store, and this recommendation information (380) May be exposed on the screen for each account as shown in the drawing above. At this time, the recommendation information 380 provided by the information provider may be exposed, including information classified 381 according to the present invention, that is, residents or outsiders, along with a nickname or recommendation score or recommendation reason or recommendation or not. .

The present invention may be made so that the total number of the recommendation scores is exposed to the user terminal.

In addition, the present invention may be made to expose the total number of recommended points of stores provided from inside or outside the life range to the user terminal. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the present invention exposes the total number 375 of the recommended score for the store together with the resident score 312 and the outsider score 313, which is the recommended average score 370 on the screen of the user terminal. can do. Through this, the user can recognize the average of the number of recommended scores provided by information providers.

The present invention provides a location-based information providing method implemented as a computing device and including location information on a store, the method comprising: receiving location information on a living place 210 from an information provider terminal; Searching for a store located within the life range 220 determined from the living place using the two location information and requesting recommendation information including a recommended score for the searched store; Receiving the recommendation information for the store from the information provider terminal; It may be accomplished including the step of controlling to expose to the requesting terminal the recommendation information for the store located within a preset interest range.

In other words, the present invention may be to request the user for recommendation information on stores located within the life range of the information provider in order to receive only recommendation information on stores within the life range, that is, regular stores. The present invention provides a message or notice requesting the information provider to provide recommendation information for the store in situations such as when signing up for a service, using a store located within the living range, or when near the store, etc. It may include a method such as notification.

The present invention is characterized in that the maximum number of registered stores that can be recommended within the living range is predetermined.

The present invention provides a method of recommending a store near a home or workplace, which is a living place of an information provider. For this reason, the number of stores that the information provider can recommend within the living range may be limited to the maximum number of registered stores. The reason why the number of stores recommended by the information provider is too large is because there is a possibility of recommending stores for commercial purposes, and the maximum number of registered stores may be a means to prevent this.

The present invention may be made to request an input of the recommendation information from an information provider to provide recommendation information on stores within the living range. In order to induce the input of the recommendation information, a message requesting the recommendation of the store is transmitted to the terminal when visiting a store in which the information provider is located within the living range or is nearby, or when signing up You can ask to enter recommended information.

5 shows a diagram of a simplified map 400a when the living range according to the present invention is divided into two (420a, 420b).

In the present invention, the living range is divided into two or more, and the maximum number of registrations of the recommendation information that can be recommended in each of the living ranges may be different.

Two or more of the living ranges 420a and 420b according to the present invention may be included based on the living place 410 of the information provider. In this case, the living range may be set to a certain radius based on the living place 410. In addition, the living ranges may be made so as not to overlap each other. In the case of Figure 5, the inner life range (420a) is located in two stores (431, 432), the outer life range (420b) is located in one shop (433), and outside the life range, one store ( 435) is located.

The reason for dividing the living range into two or more is that the information provider generally knows more information about stores closer to his or her living place, so the living range (420a) and the living range (420b) far from the living location. The maximum number of registered stores that can be recommended in is different.

The present invention provides a location-based information providing method implemented with a computing device and including location information on a store, comprising the steps of: creating an account by an information provider from an information providing terminal; Providing recommendation information for the store by categorizing it into a store that is frequently used and a store that is not frequently used from the information providing terminal; And controlling the classified recommendation information to be exposed to the user terminal, and the maximum number of registrations of the stores classified as the frequently used stores may be predetermined.

The method according to the present invention can provide recommendation information for a store after the information provider signs up and creates an account. For example, stores that are frequently used and stores that are not frequently used may be classified into regular stores and general stores and displayed on the screen of a corresponding terminal. That is, exposing the classified recommendation information means that the recommendation information is classified into the frequently used store and the store that is not the above, and exposed.

In the present invention, since the present invention is intended to categorize and provide recommended information for stores, the maximum number of registrations that can be registered in the case of a regular store is predetermined so that the information provider cannot register too many stores as the regular store. I can.

The present invention is characterized in that the maximum number of registrations is made differently depending on the type of business of the store.

In this specification, stores can target all types of stores, such as restaurants, dentists, coffee shops, or car centers. For this reason, the number of regular stores that individuals generally use a lot in the vicinity of a living place can be limited so as not to register more than that by setting the maximum number of registered stores in advance according to the type of business of the store.

In general, the location information for the store can be selected by searching for the name of the store after selecting a specific location or administrative district. At this time, the selected store may include a store location, phone number, product or service item, etc., which are basic information of the store.

The present invention may further include a menu in which only one of the stores located inside or outside the living range is exposed on the screen of the corresponding terminal. Likewise, it may be configured to select one of the frequently used stores or non-shops and only display the selected stores.

The following describes a method of providing information on a person with the same origin information around a living place according to the present invention. 6 to 8 are diagrams illustrating a method of recommending a person with the same origin information according to the present invention. Contents that are not specifically mentioned here may be the same as those of the previously mentioned recommendation method.

6 shows a flowchart of a method for recommending a person with the same origin information according to the present invention, FIG. 7 is a diagram for a map 600 showing a user range, and FIG. 8 is a person with the same origin information according to the present invention It is a diagram showing a screen 700 of the terminal recommending.

The present invention provides a method for providing location-based information implemented by a computing device, comprising: receiving (510) a user's location information and origin information for a living place or a place of interest or both from a user terminal; Receiving (520) the counterpart's location information and origin information for the living place or current location from the counterpart terminal; A search step 530 of searching for the other party located within the user range 620 determined from the user location information using the location information of the user and the other party and matching the user origin information; It includes a step 540 of controlling the counterpart information 730 corresponding to the counterpart searched in the search step to be exposed to the user terminal.

In the present invention, the origin information may include at least one or more of a hometown, a foreigner, or the nationality of a foreigner or the same foreign language.

The present invention may provide a method of exposing a counterpart having origin information such as a user to a user terminal, wherein the origin information may include at least one of hometown or foreigner's nationality or the use of the same foreign language.

In the present invention, the same origin information refers to a case where the user and the other party have the same hometown, or they are all foreigners, or they all speak the same foreign language, or they are all foreigners and have the same nationality. For example, if the user is in Korea and is a US citizen, the user can be judged as a foreigner.
