　周遊時間設定部１１１は、任意の値の周遊時間（以降、「設定時間」とも記載）の上限を設定する。周遊時間とは、利用者が出発地を出発してから所定の観光地を経由して到着地に到着するまでを示す周遊に要する時間である。例えば、周遊時間設定部１１１は、周遊時間の上限を、「５時間」や「８時間」といった値に設定する。周遊時間の上限を設定する方法としては、利用者が外部端末又は観光支援装置１００を実現するコンピュータ装置５００の入出力インターフェース５１０を用いて入力する周遊時間を上限とするなどがある。なお、利用者がレンタカー等を利用する場合において、周遊時間設定部１１１は、利用者がレンタカーを借りる期間を周遊時間の上限として設定してもよい。 The tour time setting unit 111 sets an upper limit of an arbitrary value of the tour time (hereinafter also referred to as “set time”). The round trip time is the time required for round trips from when the user leaves the departure place to the arrival at the arrival place via a predetermined tourist spot. For example, the tour time setting unit 111 sets the upper limit of the tour time to a value such as “5 hours” or “8 hours”. As a method for setting the upper limit of the tour time, there is an upper limit of the tour time input by the user using the input / output interface 510 of the computer device 500 that implements the external terminal or the tourism support device 100. When the user uses a rental car or the like, the tour time setting unit 111 may set a period during which the user rents a car as the upper limit of the tour time.
　観光コース算出部１２１は、観光所要時間と移動所要時間と観光地評価点とに基づき、観光コースの所要時間及び評価点合計を算出する。観光コースとは、周遊開始地点を出発して観光地のうち一つ以上を観光して周遊終了地点に到着するまでの経路（以降、「周遊経路」とも記載）を示す。例えば、観光コースは、出発地を出発して観光地Ａを観光して到着地に到着するまでの経路を示す「出発地→観光地Ａ→到着地」である。所要時間とは、観光コースの周遊に要する観光所要時間及び移動所要時間の合計時間を示す。図２が示すように、観光地Ａの観光所要時間は１．０時間である。図３が示すように、周遊開始地点及び観光地Ａでの移動所要時間は１．０時間、観光地Ａ及び周遊終了時間での移動所要時間は１．５時間である。例えば、観光コースが「出発地→観光地Ａ→到着地」である場合の所要時間は、１．０時間＋１．０時間＋１．５時間で３．５時間である。評価点合計とは、観光コースに含まれる観光地の観光地評価点の合計点を示す。例えば、観光コースが「出発地→観光地Ａ→到着地」である場合の観光地評価点は、図４に示すように「６０点」である。 Sightseeing course calculation unit 121 calculates the required time of the sightseeing course and the total evaluation score based on the required travel time, the required travel time, and the sightseeing spot evaluation score. The sightseeing course indicates a route (hereinafter also referred to as “tour route”) from the tour start point to the tour end point after visiting at least one of the sightseeing spots. For example, the sightseeing course is “departure place → tourist place A → arrival place” indicating the route from the departure place to the sightseeing place A to the arrival place. The required time indicates the total time required for sightseeing and traveling required for the tour of the sightseeing course. As shown in FIG. 2, the required time for sightseeing in the sightseeing spot A is 1.0 hour. As shown in FIG. 3, the required travel time at the tour start point and the sightseeing spot A is 1.0 hour, and the required travel time at the tour spot A and the tour end time is 1.5 hours. For example, when the sightseeing course is “departure location → tourism location A → arrival location”, the required time is 1.0 hour + 1.0 hour + 1.5 hours, which is 3.5 hours. The total evaluation score indicates the total score of tourist spots included in the sightseeing course. For example, when the sightseeing course is “departure place → tourist place A → arrival place”, the tourist spot evaluation point is “60 points” as shown in FIG.
　観光コース算出部１２１は、例えば、観光コースが「出発地→観光地Ａ→観光地Ｂ→到着地」である場合の所要時間は、観光地Ａ及び観光地Ｂの観光所要時間と、出発地から観光地Ａ、観光地Ａから観光地Ｂ及び観光地Ｂから到着地の移動所要時間と、を足し合わせることで求められる。具体的には、例えば、図２に示すように、観光地Ａと観光地Ｂとの観光所要時間はそれぞれ１．０時間と１．５時間とである。また、図３に示すように、出発地から観光地Ａ、観光地Ａから観光地Ｂの及び観光地Ｂから到着地の移動所要時間はそれぞれ１．０時間、１．０時間及び０．５時間である。したがって、観光コースが「出発地→観光地Ａ→観光地Ｂ→到着地」である場合の所要時間は、１．０時間＋１．５時間＋１．０時間＋１．０時間＋０．５時間で５．０時間である。 For example, the required time when the sightseeing course is “departure location → tourism location A → tourism location B → arrival location” is calculated as the required travel time of the tourist location A and the tourist destination B, and the departure location It is calculated by adding together the travel time required from the tourist destination A, the tourist destination A to the tourist destination B, and the tourist destination B to the destination. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 2, the required travel times for the sightseeing spot A and the sightseeing spot B are 1.0 hour and 1.5 hour, respectively. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the travel times from the departure point to the sightseeing spot A, from the sightseeing spot A to the sightseeing spot B, and from the sightseeing spot B to the arrival place are 1.0 hour, 1.0 hour and 0.5 hour, respectively. It's time. Therefore, the required time when the sightseeing course is “departure location → tourism location A → tourism location B → arrival location” is 1.0 hour + 1.5 hours + 1.0 hour + 1.0 hour + 0.5 hour, which is 5 hours. .0 hours.
　また、観光コース算出部１２１は、例えば、観光コースが「出発地→観光地Ａ→観光地Ｂ→到着地」である場合の評価点合計は、観光地Ａ及び観光地Ｂの観光地評価を足し合わせることで求められる。具体的には、例えば、図４に示すように、観光地Ａの評価点が６０点、観光地Ｂの評価点が１００点である。したがって観光コースが「出発地→観光地Ａ→観光地Ｂ→到着地」である場合の評価点合計は、６０点＋１００点で１６０点である。 Further, the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 calculates the sightseeing spot evaluation of the sightseeing spot A and the sightseeing spot B, for example, when the sightseeing course is “departure place → tourist spot A → tourist spot B → arrival place”. It is required by adding together. Specifically, for example, as shown in FIG. 4, the evaluation score of the tourist spot A is 60 points, and the evaluation score of the tourist spot B is 100 points. Accordingly, the total evaluation score when the sightseeing course is “departure place → tourist place A → tourist place B → arrival place” is 160 points of 60 points + 100 points.
　また、観光コース算出部１２１は、算出した観光コースの所要時間及び評価点合計と該観光コースとが対応付けられた観光コース情報を生成する。図５は、本発明の第１の実施形態における観光コース算出部１２１が生成する観光コース情報の一例を示す図である。
図５が示すように、観光コース情報は、例えば、観光コースと、該観光コースの識別子であるコース番号と、観光コース算出部１２１により算出された該観光コースの所要時間及び評価点合計とを含む。図５に示す例においては、観光コース情報は、１５通りの観光コースと該観光コースの所要時間及び評価点合計とを含む。例えば、コース番号が１の観光コースは「開始（出発地）→観光地Ａ→終了（到着地）」であり、該観光コースの所要時間が３．５時間であり、評価点合計が６０点である。すなわち、観光コース算出部１２１は、観光地の観光に要する時間及び評価値並びに観光地間の移動時間に基づき、観光地を含む周遊経路の所要時間及び周遊経路に含まれる観光地の評価値から得られる評価結果を算出する。 In addition, the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 generates sightseeing course information in which the calculated required time and evaluation score of the sightseeing course are associated with the sightseeing course. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of sightseeing course information generated by the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 5, the sightseeing course information includes, for example, a sightseeing course, a course number that is an identifier of the sightseeing course, and a required time and a total evaluation score of the sightseeing course calculated by the sightseeing course calculation unit 121. Including. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the sightseeing course information includes 15 kinds of sightseeing courses, time required for the sightseeing courses, and total evaluation points. For example, a sightseeing course with a course number of 1 is “start (departure place) → tourist place A → end (arrival place)”, the required time for the tour course is 3.5 hours, and a total of 60 evaluation points. It is. That is, the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 calculates the required time for the tour route including the sightseeing spot and the evaluation value of the sightseeing spot included in the tour route based on the time and evaluation value required for sightseeing in the sightseeing spot and the travel time between the sightseeing spots. The obtained evaluation result is calculated.
　なお、観光コース算出部１２１は、全てのパターンの観光コースを含む観光コース情報を生成する。図５に示す例においては、観光コース算出部１２１は、利用者が開始から終了まで観光地Ａ、観光地Ｂ及び観光地Ｃのうち少なくとも１つを含む観光コースの全通りである１５通りの観光コースの所要時間と評価点合計とを算出する。 Note that the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 generates sightseeing course information including sightseeing patterns of all patterns. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 includes 15 different sightseeing courses including at least one of the sightseeing spot A, the sightseeing spot B, and the sightseeing spot C from the start to the end. Calculate the time required for the sightseeing course and the total score.
　観光コース選択部１３１は、観光コース算出部１２１により生成された観光コース情報に基づき、複数の観光コースの候補の中から、観光コースを選択する。具体的には、観光コース選択部１３１は、図５に示した観光コース情報に含まれる所要時間が周遊時間設定部１１１により設定された周遊時間以内である観光コースのうち、図５に示した評価点合計が最高の観光コースを選択する。 The sightseeing course selection unit 131 selects a sightseeing course from a plurality of sightseeing course candidates based on the sightseeing course information generated by the sightseeing course calculation unit 121. Specifically, the sightseeing course selection unit 131 shown in FIG. 5 among the sightseeing courses whose required time included in the sightseeing course information shown in FIG. 5 is within the tour time set by the tour time setting unit 111. Select the sightseeing course with the highest total score.
　例えば、周遊時間設定部１１１により設定された周遊時間が５．０時間である場合、観光コース選択部１３１は、図５に示した観光コース情報において、所要時間が５．０時間以内であるコース番号１～４のうち、評価点合計が最高となるコース番号４の観光コースを選択する。すなわち、観光コース選択部１３１は、所要時間が入力された設定時間以内である周遊経路の中から、評価結果に基づいて周遊経路を選択する。 For example, when the tour time set by the tour time setting unit 111 is 5.0 hours, the sightseeing course selection unit 131 uses the tour course information shown in FIG. Among the numbers 1 to 4, select the sightseeing course with the course number 4 that gives the highest evaluation score. That is, the sightseeing course selection unit 131 selects a tour route based on the evaluation result from the tour routes within the set time for which the required time is input.
　なお、評価点合計が最高となる観光地の組み合わせが複数存在する場合において、観光コース選択部１３１は、それらの中から周遊時間が最短となる観光地の組み合わせを選択する。評価点合計が最高となりかつ周遊時間が最短となる観光地の組み合わせが複数存在する場合において、観光コース選択部１３１は、それらの中から任意の組み合わせを選択する。 In addition, when there are a plurality of sightseeing spot combinations having the highest total evaluation score, the sightseeing course selecting unit 131 selects a sightseeing spot combination having the shortest tour time from among them. In the case where there are a plurality of combinations of sightseeing spots where the total evaluation score is the highest and the tour time is the shortest, the sightseeing course selection unit 131 selects an arbitrary combination from these.
　なお、所定の条件を最適化する観光地の組み合わせを選択する方法としては、すべての組み合わせを列挙してその中から条件を最適化する組み合わせを選択する方法を用いても良い。あるいは、観光地の数が増えると組み合わせの数が多くなり、厳密な最適解を求めようとすると計算負荷が大きくなるため、局所探索アルゴリズムや遺伝的アルゴリズムなどの、厳密な最適解への到達は保証されないがより少ない計算負荷で良質な近似解が求められる方法を用いても良い。 In addition, as a method of selecting a combination of sightseeing spots that optimizes a predetermined condition, a method of enumerating all combinations and selecting a combination that optimizes the condition may be used. Or, as the number of tourist spots increases, the number of combinations increases, and the calculation load increases when trying to find a strict optimal solution. Therefore, reaching a strict optimal solution such as a local search algorithm or genetic algorithm A method that is not guaranteed but requires a good approximate solution with a smaller calculation load may be used.
　観光コース提示部１４１は、観光コース選択部１３１により選択された観光コースに関する情報（以降、「提示情報」とする）を提示する。図６は、本発明の第１の実施形態における提示情報の例を示す図である。例えば、観光コース選択部１３１が図５に示したコース番号４を選択した場合、観光コース提示部１４１は、図６に示す情報を提示情報として提示する。図６に示す例では、提示情報は、観光コースと該観光コースの所要時間及び評価点合計とを含む。すなわち、観光コース提示部１４１は、選択された周遊経路を提示する。 Sightseeing course presentation unit 141 presents information (hereinafter referred to as “presentation information”) related to the sightseeing course selected by the sightseeing course selection unit 131.

The presentation information A1 is the presentation information selected by the sightseeing course selection unit 131. For example, when the sightseeing course presentation unit 141 presents the presentation information shown in FIG. 6 to the external terminal, the display screen A displays the presentation information A1 shown in FIG.
　次に、本実施形態における観光支援装置１００の動作について説明する。図８は、本発明の第１の実施形態における観光支援装置１００の動作例を示すフローチャートである。 Next, the operation of the tourism support apparatus 100 in this embodiment will be described. FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating an operation example of the tourism support device 100 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
　周遊時間設定部１１１は、周遊時間の上限を設定する（ステップＳ１００）。観光コース算出部１２１は、観光所要時間と移動所要時間と観光地評価点とに基づき、観光コースの所要時間と評価点合計と該観光コースとが対応付けられた観光コース情報を生成する（ステップＳ１０１）。観光コース選択部１３１は、観光コース算出部１２１により生成された観光コース情報に基づき、複数の観光コースの候補の中から、観光コースを選択する（ステップＳ１０２）。観光コース提示部１４１は、観光コース選択部１３１により選択された観光コースに基づく提示情報を提示する（ステップＳ１０３）。 The tour time setting unit 111 sets an upper limit of the tour time (step S100). The sightseeing course calculation unit 121 generates sightseeing course information in which the required time of the sightseeing course, the total evaluation score, and the sightseeing course are associated with each other based on the required travel time, the required travel time, and the sightseeing spot evaluation point (step) S101). The sightseeing course selection unit 131 selects a sightseeing course from a plurality of sightseeing course candidates based on the sightseeing course information generated by the sightseeing course calculation unit 121 (step S102). The sightseeing course presentation unit 141 presents presentation information based on the sightseeing course selected by the sightseeing course selection unit 131 (step S103).
　以上説明したように、本実施形態における観光支援装置１００においては、観光所要時間、移動所要時間及び観光地評価点から得られる観光コースの所要時間及び評価点合計と周遊時間とに基づき観光コースを選択し、選択した観光コースに関する提示情報を外部端末に提示する。 As described above, in the tourism support apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment, the sightseeing course is calculated based on the required time of the sightseeing course, the total time required for the sightseeing course obtained from the required time for travel, the required time for travel, and the scenic spot evaluation point, and the tour time. Select and present presentation information about the selected sightseeing course to an external terminal.
　これにより、周遊時間以内で評価点合計の高い観光コースを選択できるので、満足度の高い観光コースを作成することができる。また、利用者は外部端末から評価点合計の高い観光コースを含む提示情報を確認できるので、観光支援を行う際に、利用者が周遊時間以内で満足度の高い観光コースを周遊できる。 This allows you to select a sightseeing course with a high total evaluation score within the tour time, so you can create a highly satisfying sightseeing course. In addition, since the user can confirm the presentation information including the sightseeing course with a high total evaluation score from the external terminal, the user can tour the sightseeing course with high satisfaction within the tour time when performing sightseeing support.
　なお、本実施形態においては、観光支援装置１００は、所要時間及び周遊時間を用いて観光コースを算出及び選択したが、時間以外を用いて観光コースを算出及び選択してもよい。例えば、観光支援装置１００は、移動所要距離及び観光所要距離との合計である所要距離と周遊距離とを用いて観光コースを算出及び選択してもよい。当該場合においては、観光支援装置１００は、周遊距離を上限として、所要距離が周遊距離以内で評価点合計の高い観光コースを選択すればよい。 In the present embodiment, the tourism support apparatus 100 calculates and selects the sightseeing course using the required time and the tour time, but may calculate and select the sightseeing course using a time other than the time. For example, the tourism support apparatus 100 may calculate and select a sightseeing course using a required distance that is the sum of a required travel distance and a required travel distance, and a tour distance. In this case, the tourism support device 100 may select a tourism course with a required distance within the round trip distance and a high evaluation score, with the round trip distance as the upper limit.
　なお、観光コース選択部１３１は、例えば、周遊時間の上限値内の観光コースを取得した後に、取得した観光コースの中で他の観光地を周遊時間の上限値内で追加できる観光コースがある場合、該観光コースを選択する対象から削除してもよい。これにより、誤って満足度の低い観光コースを選択することを防ぐことができる。 In addition, the sightseeing course selection part 131 has the sightseeing course which can add another sightseeing spot within the upper limit of the tour time in the acquired sightseeing course, for example after acquiring the sightseeing course within the upper limit of the tour time. In this case, the sightseeing course may be deleted from the target to be selected. Thereby, it can prevent selecting the sightseeing course with low satisfaction accidentally.
　なお、観光支援装置１００は、外部端末等から観光コースの変更を指示する情報である変更指示情報を受け取った場合、観光コースを選択しなおし、再選択した観光コースに関する提示情報を提示してもよい。観光コースを選択しなおす場合、観光コース選択部１３１は、例えば、選択した観光コースの次に評価点合計の高い観光コース（第２の観光コース）を選択する。これにより、満足度の高い観光コースであり、かつ、利用者の望む観光コースを提示できる。 In addition, when the tourism support apparatus 100 receives change instruction information, which is information for instructing a change of a tourism course, from an external terminal or the like, the tourism support device 100 may reselect the tourism course and present presentation information regarding the reselected tourism course. Good. When selecting a sightseeing course again, for example, the sightseeing course selection unit 131 selects a sightseeing course (second sightseeing course) having the highest evaluation score next to the selected sightseeing course. As a result, it is possible to present a sightseeing course that is highly satisfactory and that the user desires.
　なお、観光コース提示部１４１は、図５に示す観光コースの一覧である観光コース情報を提示してもよい。当該場合において、観光コース提示部１４１は、例えば、観光コース選択部１３１により選択された観光コースが強調表示された観光コース情報を提示する。さらに、観光支援装置１００は、選択された観光コースが強調表示された観光コース情報を提示された外部端末が、該観光コース情報の中から任意に観光コースを選択できるようにしてもよい。これにより、利用者は提示された観光コース以外の観光コースを確認でき、かつ、任意に観光コースを選択できるため、利用者の望む観光コースを提示できる。 Note that the sightseeing course presentation unit 141 may present sightseeing course information that is a list of sightseeing courses shown in FIG. In this case, the sightseeing course presentation unit 141 presents, for example, sightseeing course information in which the sightseeing course selected by the sightseeing course selection unit 131 is highlighted. Further, the tourism support apparatus 100 may allow an external terminal that has been presented with sightseeing course information in which the selected sightseeing course is highlighted to arbitrarily select a sightseeing course from the sightseeing course information. Thereby, since the user can check a sightseeing course other than the presented sightseeing course and can arbitrarily select a sightseeing course, the user can present a sightseeing course desired by the user.
　なお、本実施形態の観光コース情報では、１つの観光コースが同一の観光地を複数回含まないものとして説明したが、それに限定されない。例えば、利用者が外部端末又は観光支援装置１００を実現するコンピュータ装置５００の入出力インターフェース５１０を用いて入力する指示情報に基づき、観光コース算出部１２１は、観光コースに同一の観光地を複数回（例えば「２回」）含む観光コース情報を生成してもよい。 In the tourist course information of the present embodiment, it has been described that one tourist course does not include the same tourist spot a plurality of times, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, based on the instruction information that the user inputs using the input / output interface 510 of the computer device 500 that implements the external terminal or the tourism support device 100, the tourism course calculation unit 121 applies the same sightseeing spot to the sightseeing course multiple times. Tourist course information including (for example, “twice”) may be generated.
　なお、本実施形態においては、図７に示した提示情報に基づく外部端末の表示態様を具体例として説明した。しかしながら、これは一例であり、外部端末の表示態様は他の表示態様であってもよい。以下、図９を用いて提示情報に基づく外部端末の別の表示態様を説明する。図９は、本発明の第１の実施形態における観光コース提示部１４１により外部端末に表示された表示画面の別の例を示す図である。本例の場合において、観光コース提示部１４１は、図７に示した提示情報Ａ１（図９においては提示情報Ｂ１）に加えて、観光コース選択部１３１により選択された観光コースの順路を示す提示情報Ｂ２を外部端末に提示する。図９に示すように、提示情報Ｂ２は、各観光地間の関係を模式的に示す関係情報において、観光コース選択部１３１により選択された観光コースの順路が太い矢印で示されている。また、提示情報Ｂ２では、例えば、観光コースに含まれる観光地が斜線や色等で強調されてもよい。 In the present embodiment, the display mode of the external terminal based on the presentation information shown in FIG. 7 has been described as a specific example. However, this is an example, and the display mode of the external terminal may be another display mode. Hereinafter, another display mode of the external terminal based on the presentation information will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating another example of the display screen displayed on the external terminal by the sightseeing course presentation unit 141 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
