Satellite navigation method and system
First Claim
1. A satellite navigation method, comprising:
- obtaining a search parameter;
obtaining a current location by a (GPS) module as a user'"'"'s current location;
determining a navigation area according to the current location and the search parameter, wherein the current location is directly provided from detecting by the global position system (GPS) module of an electronic device;
searching out all picture batches in the navigation area from a picture database;
providing a map relating to the navigation area;
displaying the map on a first frame and further integrating and displaying all picture batches on corresponding locations in the map by a display unit of the electronic device, wherein the GPS module and the display unit both belong to the electronic device;
the picture batches, displayed smaller than the map in size, are integrated into the map on the corresponding locations in the map and the map displayed on the first frame is displayed as a full screen;
detecting one of the picture batches chosen from the integrated map on the first frame;
displaying all pictures of the chosen picture batch on a second frame by the display unit, wherein all pictures of the chosen picture batch displayed on the second frame are displayed as a full screen;
the first frame is replaced with the second frame, the map is not displayed when the second frame is displayed by the display unit, and the first frame and the second frame are displayed during a navigation mode;
detecting one of the pictures chosen from the second frame; and
displaying a piece of satellite navigation information of the picture chosen from the second frame on a third frame by the display unit, further comprising;
displaying, on the third frame, the piece of satellite navigation information including a path, marked on a map, from the current location to a shooting location of the chosen picture from the second frame, wherein the piece of satellite navigation information of the picture chosen from the second frame displayed on the third frame is displayed as a full screen and the second frame is replaced with the third frame.

Abstract
A satellite navigation method and system are provided. The system includes a global position system (GPS) module, an input unit, a picture database, a geographical information system (GIS) module, an integrating unit, and a display unit. The method includes the following steps. Firstly, a navigation area is determined through the input unit, so as to search out several picture batches in the navigation area from the picture database. Next, a map relating to the navigation area is provided by the GIS module. Then, the picture batches and the map are integrated by the integrating unit to produce an integrated map shown on a first frame of the display unit. Afterwards, several pictures of the picture batch chosen from the first frame displayed on a second frame and satellite navigation information of the picture chosen from the second frame are displayed on a third frame by the display unit.
