Method for supplying a program-aided information system with specific positional information
First Claim
1. A method for supplying a program-aided information system with specific location information, in which the information system provides a selection of location-dependent information based on at least one of a plurality of person-specific or object-specific locations, wherein a first location is detectable by a first sensor having a first reference system and a second location is detectable by a second sensor having a second reference system, the method comprising:
- detecting positional data for at least one of the plurality of person-specific or object-specific locations through an associated sensor;
transforming said sensor-detected positional data into corresponding location representing forms using at least one sensor adaptor which establishes a single reference system from the first and second reference systems, within which positional data of the plurality of person-specific and object-specific locations being spatially attributed and associated with a hierarchical structure;
combining said location representing forms in a location set based on the single reference system;
forming location relations between any combination of locations, persons or objects within the location sets, which includes identifying a distance relationship and hierarchical relationship between each location, person, or object in the location set; and
applying operations for determining the matching of locations as a basis of generating or providing location-dependent person-specific or object-specific information.

Abstract
Disclosed is a method for supplying a program-aided information system with specific location information, in which the information system provides at least one selection of certain location-dependent information on the basis of a person-specific or object-specific location which is detectable by a sensor.
The present invention is distinguished by the combination of the following steps:
- detection of positional data for a person-specific or object-specific location by a sensor,
- transformation of said sensor-detected positional data into a location representing form, which is associated with a reference system, within which said positional data can be spatially attributed, as well as being associated with a hierarchical structure,
- combination of said location representing forms in a location set and/or in form of positional vectors in which said positional data of at least two locations are linked in a prescribed order, and/or
- formation of location relations and/or positional vector relations between the locations, persons or objects within so-called positioned location sets, and
- application of operations for determining the matching of locations as a basis of generating or providing location-dependent person-specific or object-specific information.
