Definitions

  • This invention relates to the field of cartography and, in particular, to providing a visual display of a selected map stored along with a plurality of differing maps on a visual display device.
  • subway and pedestrian maps are substantially different from driver-oriented maps.
  • Local businesses and attractions can assist pedestrian consumers in locating their venues and events, and encourage patronage of their establishments by pinpointing their locations on the maps.
  • One type of map that is therefore useful for helping travelers to get around in a city is a subway map showing one or more subway lines.
  • finding a subway station in major cities can be difficult. Even if one sees a sign indicating a subway entrance from a distance, a closer investigation is usually required to determine which subway line the station services.
  • Some major downtown stations are not marked at all on the street level. Furthermore, many stations have separate entrances for inbound and outbound service and separate stairways for entrances and exits.
  • Some stations have separate entrances for each line, and the entrances can be scattered across a radius of up to two blocks. Thus, it is useful for subway riders who are not familiar with a particular line or station to have a reference tool to locate the most efficient subway line and passageway to the subway line including inbound and outbound entrances and exits of the subway line.
  • Geo-specific locators on the map are visual aids to depict locations of events, business locations, sites and attractions, to which travelers are likely to venture. For example, the Boston metropolitan area is home to nearly a quarter million college students and hosts over 11.5 million tourists each year. The education and tourist industries rank second and third, respectively, in terms of state revenue, leading to a significant amount of advertising and marketing geared toward students and tourists. While there are a number of college-oriented and tourist-oriented-advertising publications, there is still a need for a map-based manner in which these largely pedestrian-and subway-oriented demographics can be targeted by local businesses and attractions.
  • Maptuit.com provides maps having symbols wherein a window corresponding to a symbol appears when a user rolls a mouse indicator over the symbols. The window can display, for example, a name of a business corresponding to the symbol. Additionally, if the user clicks the mouse, a small information page containing information about the corresponding business appears.
  • Mapblast.com is a Global Positioning System-(GPS) based mapping site that displays the trademarks of business on a map at a location corresponding to the geographic location of the business. It permits the user to select categories of business or attractions using a drop down menu, for example, hotels, restaurants, or ATMs. Selection of a category results in the display of the trademarks of all the establishments in the selected category.
  • GPS-based systems include
  • MapQuest.com Delorme.com, and Maps.com.
  • a prior art system, jungleport.com, provides downloadable maps and directions for users.
  • MapQuest.com maps provided by MapQuest.com for permitting travelers to obtain maps of areas they intend to travel.
  • Some of these sites allow users to zoom in to various levels of map detail, as well as to locate addresses on their maps. However, these sites are oriented towards drivers of motor vehicles. They do not provide subway or pedestrian-oriented information.
  • the video displays of maps obtained from internet-based map providers and search companies are downloadable, one video display at a time.
  • a user can locate a desired map display and download it into a personal device for later use.
  • video displays of maps are downloaded one video display at a time into personal computers and personal digital assistants (PDAs).
  • PDAs personal digital assistants
  • the system and method of the present invention provides a guide for assisting a user in traveling in a predetermined geographic area, for example, for use in a city to help locate venues and events while in that area.
  • the present invention is particularly advantageous when applied to such a city area having a subway system therein.
  • One feature of the guide is a high level view of such a subway system wherein symbols representative of the various features of the subway system such as entrances and exits are provided.
  • the high level view includes a representation of the subway system overlaid onto a representation of the city to form a composite map.
  • the representation of the city within the composite map can be a detailed street map or any other kind of map, and can include bus lines, walking paths, bicycle paths, or any type of information.
  • the composite map can be provided as a hard copy, but is preferably displayed on a video display device.
  • the video display device can be, for example, the video monitor of a personal computer, the screen of a PDA, or the display of any other type of electronic device coupled to a web page server or other type of server of a provider of the system and method of the invention.
  • the user is provided with map screens showing a series of progressively more magnified and detailed levels, or zoom levels, of the composite map.
  • One way for the user to navigate from one map screen to another is by using a star shaped compass having a plurality of compass points displayed beside the map. By clicking on a selected compass point the user is able to change a currently shown map screen to the next map screen, in the direction corresponding to the clicked compass point.
  • Enlarging and compressing of images of the map screens in order to perform the zoom in and zoom out functions without distortion of the dimensions of the images is made possible through the use of vector objects and vector methods.

The entrances and exits with wheelchair access are also indicated on the map screen. Additionally, an index is provided along with the composite map to list the streets of the city along with the corresponding map screens and grid locations on which the streets are located, in order to assist the user in locating the streets shown in the guide.

There are two essential aspects to the video display technology used. First, it permits a vector based program which allows the user to enlarge or compress the images of map screens without losing proportionality in either dimension. Second, map displays that are programmed using the preferred video display technology can be programmed as a plurality of layers of maps, wherein each layer is represented as the composite map displayed on the screen. Each layer is assigned a unique code number in order to permit the layers to be accessed when needed. For example, the five map screens 10-18 are each represented as a layer and each such layer is assigned its own code number.

The lowest resolution map screen and each of its higher resolution sub-regions are displayed as separate map screens, and thus are represented by separate layers. Map screens 14, 16, 18 illustrate such minimum level, intermediate level, and high level resolution display screens, respectively.
