Update the computer recording media of the software program with the icon built into the information device. [Background of the invention] With the advent of the high-tech era and the continuous evolution of technology, the advent of various information products has greatly improved the convenience of modern people's lives. Among them, the navigation device and global positioning system (global positioning sySteni5 GP S ) Invention has significantly improved the mobile life of the public. The purpose of the navigation device is to correctly guide the user from the starting point to the destination ', which is to display the map and the path on the screen of the navigation device, so that the user can follow the directions to travel. In order to achieve the above functions, the navigation device must have built-in layer data of complex array maps (such as road names, facilities, backgrounds, or different scale data) for display on labor screens, such as navigation devices used in Taiwan , Which has built-in map data of various towns and cities or tourist attractions. Over time, the planning of street pavements will change to some extent, and important road signs and attractions will increase and decrease with time. Therefore, the original built-in navigation device < Map K materials must be updated in time to respond to environmental changes. For example, the information of new and MRT stations, or adjustment of road driving directions (one-way / two-way), etc. However, the conventional navigation device itself does not have an automatic update function. At first, this uses the map data originally stored in the navigation device database.

Description of the invention (6) Map database 2 of the navigation device 2 0 In addition to storing the map data of the complex array, 'the layer number corresponding to each layer data is stored, and the local version number of this layer data . When the user wants to generate a suggested reference path through the navigation device 20, a search command 251 including a starting place coordinate 値 and a destination coordinate 値 will be input into the input module 25 for the local microprocessor 21 to use the map database The corresponding area map 2 24 of 24 is used to calculate the optimal path, and a control command 2 1 2 is used to output the module 2 k to obtain the path map data 243 from the map database 2 4 through which the optimal path passes, and Display it. Among them, since the & ground coordinates 値 are usually the current location of the navigation device 20, the current coordinates 値 2 7 1 can be detected by the GP S module 2 7 installed in the navigation device 2 0 as a starting point. The origin coordinate 値 does not have to be entered through the input module 25. In addition, the input module 25 in this embodiment is preferably a touch panel, and the output module 26 is preferably a liquid crystal display. In order to ensure that the last route map data 243 displayed on the output module 26 is the latest version, so that the user can grasp the latest map data at any time, so after the user issues a search command 251, the local microprocessor 21 will expand the route map The layer number corresponding to the data 2 4 3 and the local version number form a version command 2 1 1 and transmitted through the local sending module 2 2. It should be noted that the version instruction 2 1 1 of this embodiment only includes the version information of the layer data related to the path map data 2 4 3. Of course, it is also possible to send the version information of all layer data at a time for comparison, for example, extracting from the map database 24 a pair of deer with all the layer numbers stored in it. 9 The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification ( 210X297 mm), OK --------- I (Please read the notes on the back before filling in the columns on this page) V. Description of the invention (7) Then compose according to this layer version table < native version Numbered layer version table version instruction 21 i. Next-and refer to Fig. 3 for a flowchart of a state-built map for the device according to the first embodiment. The receiving module of the host of the ship ⑴ 矣 = to the version command 2ΐι from the sending module 22 of this machine (step s30i): Mai, Wangji microprocessor " According to the layer number in the version command 211, from The king machine database 14 finds the host version number 141 corresponding to this layer number (step S3G2). Because in this embodiment, a larger version number indicates a newer version. Therefore, after comparing the host version number 对应 corresponding to the same layer number with the local version number, if the host version number ΐ 4ι is greater than the native version order, (Step S303), the host microprocessor 丨 丨 will retrieve the latest version of the layer data 142 from the host database 14 (step S304), and transmit the layer data 丨 42 through the king machine sending module 12, The local receiving module 23 of the navigation device 20 receives it (step S305), and stores it in the corresponding space in the map database 24 (step S306) to replace the old version of the map and update it to the new version. . In addition, the host sending module 12 on the server side sends the layer data 142 at least once. This will ensure that the navigation device 20 receives and stores the update smoothly. It should be noted that the version number can also be defined in English letters or other arrangements in order. Therefore, as long as the host version number is compared to the local version number, it means that the map stored in the navigation device 20 If the data is not the latest version, the host microprocessor U will send the latest version of the layer data 142 to update the map database 24 of the navigation device 20. In addition, if the industry is designed to send only the latest version of map data, the above steps are as follows: _10 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) 1235309 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (8 )-A S303 can be changed to compare whether the host version number 141 and the local version number β are the same. I. In the first embodiment, the server automatically updates the map database 24 in the navigation device 20 in a compulsory manner, that is, once the map data version in the map database μ is older, the temple server 1 will Perform the update procedure. The company refers to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 for the description of the second embodiment. Actually, the environment: The process is roughly the same as the first embodiment, but when the host version number 141 is greater than the local version number (step S503) ), The server first sends an inquiry command 111 to the navigation device 20 (step S504), and after the navigation device 20 returns a confirmation update command 213 (step S505), the server I = retrieves from the host database 14 Take the layer data corresponding to the layer number 142 (step S506) and transfer it to the navigation device 20 (step S507) to update the map database 24 of the navigation device 20 (step S508). The two-way update information installation and built-in visual display of this book and its method use the two-way one-way transmission technology to automatically update the built-in icons in the information device at the same day temple, which can indeed improve the convenience of the update process, and Reducing the time and cost of updating built-in icons is a big improvement.
