SECTION SETTING METHOD, MILEAGE INFORMATION GENERATION DEVICE, AND OPERATION ASSIST DEVICE
First Claim
1. A section setting method comprising:
- collecting fuel efficiency information, which is information related to fuel efficiency of a vehicle that travels from a starting point to a destination point and is obtained under a plurality of types of vehicle operations together with location information of the vehicle at each time;
comparing change patterns in the collected fuel efficiency information for each of the location information;
connecting change pattern sections, which are parts of the change patterns, sequentially from the starting point to the destination point based on a result of the comparison; and
setting, as a section to be used for calculation of actual fuel efficiency, a section that is obtained by dividing a route at positions corresponding to connection points of the connected change pattern sections.

Abstract
A section setting method calculates information relating to an attainable actual fuel efficiency under a vehicle operation performed in consideration of fuel efficiency. To that end, the section setting method collects fuel-efficiency information that is information relating to the fuel efficiency required for a movement from a start point to a destination point of the vehicle, which is obtained under a plurality of kinds of vehicle operations, along with positional information of the vehicle at each time. The section setting method compares change pattern parts of the collected fuel-efficiency information with each other, thereby sequentially connecting the change pattern parts of the fuel-efficiency information from the start point to the destination point. The section setting method sets, as a section used to calculate the actual fuel efficiency, a section obtained by sectioning at points corresponding to the connection points of the change pattern parts connected.
