Traffic information processing apparatus, traffic information management server, traffic information management system
First Claim
1. A traffic information processing apparatus which is mounted in a vehicle and is provided with a first processing element configured to determine travel information of the vehicle and transmit the travel information intermittently, further comprising:
- a second processing element configured to set a transmission interval according to an operating state or an attribute of the vehicle for the first processing element to transmit the travel information, wherein the second processing element sets the transmission interval when a velocity of the vehicle denoting the operating state of the vehicle is in a predefined range differently from the transmission interval set when the velocity of the vehicle is beyond the predefined range, the range including a minimum value and a maximum value.

Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and the like for improving the communication efficiency of travel information and the like by taking account of the degree of necessity of collecting the travel information of a vehicle in view of an operating state or attribute of the vehicle. A traffic information processing apparatus (10) mounted in the vehicle (1) determines the travel information thereof and transmits the travel information intermittently to a traffic information management server (20). A transmission interval (T) for transmitting the travel information is set according to a velocity (V) indicating the operating state of the vehicle (1) and a rule designated by the traffic information management server (20).
