If can be matched with an error of several meters, it is possible to display a specific position. However, it is technically difficult to accurately edit the entire information of the global map data from the survey for constructing the global map data and the compilation by this survey when targeting the whole area of the earth. .
また、 地球全体の地域において現在位置情報の特定表示を行う場合、 現在位 置情報の緯度、 経度情報をその場所を表す正確な緯度、 経度の位置情報を有する 地図データ上に正確に一致させることが必要である。 これまで地球規模の世界地 図、 世界の一大陸州全体、 あるいは海洋地域を対象とする場合において、 通報さ れる現在位置情報が正確かつ具体的詳細を表す地図データに位置特定の表示をす る方法が困難であった。 In addition, when specific display of current position information is performed in the entire region of the earth, the latitude and longitude information of the current position information must be exactly matched with the map data that has accurate latitude and longitude position information indicating the location. is necessary. Until now, it has been reported in the case of a global world map, an entire continent of the world, or a marine area. It is difficult to display the location on the map data that shows accurate and specific details.
また、 地球全体の地域において現在位置情報の特定表示を行う場合、 少なく とも現在位置が地球全体の中のどの地域かを判断できることが必要である。 例え ば正確な緯度、 経度を有する南アメリカ、 アフリカなどの大陸を表す全地域を対 象とした地図データ、 あるいは地球全体の全地域を対象とする正確な地図データ を作成することが必要である。 この方法として唯一利用できるのが人工衛星の衛 星地図による画像データ情報である。 しかし単なる人工衛星の衛星画像データ情 報を寄せ集めて地球の全域を表示する地球地図画像データを作成しても、 各地図 測量面、 全方位面の照合がされず正確な地球全体の地図とならないため、 この地 図に現在位置の特定表示をすることはできない。 また正確な地球規模の地図が作 成されても、 この地図から実際の現在位置情報の具体的詳細を示す場所を正確に 特定表示することは全く不可能である。  In addition, in the case of specific display of current location information in the whole area of the earth, it is necessary to be able to judge at least which area in the whole earth the current position is. For example, it is necessary to create map data covering all regions representing continents such as South America and Africa with accurate latitude and longitude, or accurate map data covering all regions of the entire earth. . The only method that can be used is image data information from satellite satellite maps. However, even if the global map image data showing the whole area of the earth is created by gathering the satellite image data information of mere satellites, each map survey plane and omnidirectional plane are not collated and an accurate map of the whole earth is obtained. Therefore, it is not possible to specify the current position on this map. Also, even if an accurate global map is created, it is impossible at all to accurately identify and display locations that show the specific details of actual current location information from this map.
反対に、 実際の現在位置が明確に特定ができる人の捜索、 救助を可能とする 範囲を表す詳細地図データをつなぎ合わせ、 世界全体の地域を力パーする膨大な 地球規模地図データだけを作成しても、 この地図データがそもそも世界のどこの 位置にあるか明確にならず、 現在位置の正確な場所の特定を探し出すことは困難 である。 このように単なる地図データの寄せ集めから現在位置の位置情報を引き 出し特定表示することは不可能である。  Conversely, by linking detailed map data that shows the areas where search and rescue are possible for people whose actual current position can be clearly identified, only a huge amount of global map data that can be used throughout the world is created. However, it is not clear where this map data is located in the world in the first place, and it is difficult to find the exact location of the current location. As described above, it is impossible to extract the position information of the current position from a mere collection of map data and to display the specific information.
以上から、 地球全体の地域において正確な緯度、 経度の位置情報を表示する 方法として、 一方において地球全体の地域を対象に全ての場所の緯度、 経度の位 置情報を備える正確な地球地図データ情報の確立が必要であり、 他方、 地球の全 ての地域を対象に通報される現在位置情報を表示する場所が、 人が捜索、 救助が できる範囲を示すことを可能にする正確な詳細地図データの確立を必要とする。 この 2つの相反する両方の要求を同時に満たし正確な緯度、 経度の位置情報を有 する地図上に、 通報される現在位置情報と地図データによる緯度、 経度の位置情 報が正確に照合一致させる必要があるが極めて困難であった。  Based on the above, as a method of displaying accurate latitude and longitude position information in the entire region of the earth, on the other hand, accurate global map data information that includes latitude and longitude position information of all places for the entire region of the earth Accurate, detailed map data that allows the location of current location information to be reported to all parts of the globe to indicate the extent of human search and rescue. Needs to be established. Both of these two conflicting requirements must be met at the same time, and the current location information to be reported and the latitude and longitude location information from the map data must be accurately matched on a map that has accurate latitude and longitude location information. But very difficult.
また、 世界全体の地域を対象にこれまでは公衆通信回線を利用して現在位置 情報を通報し明確な通報場所の特定表示を行うことは困難であった。 現在、 公衆通信回線の通じない、 また公衆通信手段のない地域を含む地球上 の全地域において通信できる手段として唯一、 衛星通信回線により通報が可能と なる。 しかし単に位置情報の通報だけでは無線と全く同一であり現在位置の地図 上への特定表示はできない。 Until now, it has been difficult to report the current location information using a public communication line and clearly indicate the location of the report for the entire region of the world. Currently, the only means that can be used to communicate in all areas of the globe, including areas where there is no public communication line or where there is no public communication means, can be reported via satellite communication lines. However, simply reporting the location information is exactly the same as wireless communication, and the specific location of the current location cannot be displayed on a map.
また、 これまで衛星通信回線を通して現在位置情報を通報し衛星地図による 世界全体が表示される地図あるいは限られた部分的な地域詳細地図に現在位置を 表示することは可能であるが、単にこれらの地図に現在位置情報を表示されても、 この地図から通報された場所を人が捜索、救助することは不可能に近い。現在位置 情報を単に世界全体地図に表示する通報位置の特定と、 通報された現在位置情報 を示す具体的詳細の場所を正確に地図上へ表示することは別次元のものである。  In the past, it was possible to report the current position information via a satellite communication line and display the current position on a satellite map that shows the entire world or a limited partial detailed map of the world. Even if the current location information is displayed on the map, it is almost impossible for people to search and rescue the location reported from this map. Identifying the reporting location, which simply displays the current location information on the world wide map, and accurately displaying the location of the specific details indicating the reported current location information on the map are different dimensions.
従来、 このような場合においては、 地図から現在位置の場所を推測表示され るものであるが、 地球全体規模の地図レベルでは数 1 0 k m、 数 1 0 0 k mの位 置の誤差があり、 また仮に位置の誤差が小さい場合であっても国境、 河川、 湖、 山脈、 などにおいては、 全く違う場所が指定されるため現実の現在位置の特定は 全く不可能である。 このように通報される現在位置情報が地球全体を対象として 地図から実際の現在位置の経度 ·緯度を正確に割り出し具体的詳細の通報場所を 特定表示することは困難であり、 さらに通報された現在位置情報をもとに迅速か つ的確に人が捜索、 救助することは殆ど困難であった。 発明の開示  Conventionally, in such cases, the location of the current position is estimated and displayed from the map.However, at the global map level, there are errors of several 100 km and several 100 km. Even if the position error is small, it is impossible to specify the actual current position because a completely different place is specified at the border, river, lake, mountain range, etc. In this way, it is difficult to accurately determine the longitude and latitude of the actual current position from the map for the current location information reported for the entire earth, and to specify and display the specific detailed reporting location. It was almost difficult for people to search and rescue quickly and accurately based on location information. Disclosure of the invention

第 1図は、 本発明の地球通報表示探索システムの全体構成を表すシステムブ ロック図である。 地球における全地域のあらゆる場所において、 とくに公衆通信 回線の通じない地域、 公衆通信手段のない地域、 また地図データ上に正確な詳細 の現在位置情報が特定表示できない地域において、 現在位置の通報する必要 (例 えば、 緊急事態が発生した場合) が生じた場合に、 その現在位置の場所から人が 所持する通報装置 1 0 0の通報釦スィツチ 1 3 0により現在位置情報 0 1 0が衛 星通信回線 2 1 0を含む通信回線 2 0 0を通して通報管理装置 3 0 0に通報し、 現在位置の具体的場所を特定表示 0 2 0する。 また移動体運搬手段に搭載される 通報管理装置 3 0 1とカメラ撮像手段 4 0 0との連動一体制御を通して表示探索 を行うものである。 .  FIG. 1 is a system block diagram showing the entire configuration of the earth notification display search system of the present invention. It is necessary to report the current location in all parts of the globe, especially in areas where there is no public communication line, where there is no public communication means, or where accurate detailed current location information cannot be specified and displayed on map data. (For example, when an emergency occurs), the current position information 0 1 0 is transmitted to satellite communication by the notification button switch 1 3 0 of the notification device 1 0 0 carried by a person from the current position. A report is sent to the report management device 300 through the communication line 200 including the line 210, and the specific location of the current position is specified and displayed.
