Map information creation device, information presentation device, map information creation method and information provision method
First Claim
1. A map information creation device which creates map information and is provided in a server, the server performing wireless communication with a movable body via a communication network, the server and the movable body being included in a system, the map information creation device comprising:
- a processor; and
a non-transitory memory having stored thereon executable instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to perform;
obtaining, from the movable body via the communication network, operation information indicating (i) frequency of an operation performed by a user of the movable body on a device related to predetermined information and (ii) a position of the movable body at a time of the operation performed on the device, the operation being performed in response to provision of the predetermined information to the user of the movable body, the predetermined information being information on an inquiry to the user of the movable body;
comparing, for each of positions on a map, a magnitude relationship between the frequency indicated by the operation information and a predetermined threshold value, based on the obtained operation information, determining that a current position is a position at which information can be presented to the user of the movable body when the frequency is higher than the threshold value, and determining that a current position is a position at which information cannot be presented to the user of the movable body when the frequency is not higher than the threshold value;
creating the map information indicating a result of the determination for each position on the map; and
outputting the created map information to the movable body, the movable body presenting information to the user of the movable body using the created map information.

Abstract
A map information creation device for presenting information at an appropriate time includes: an operation obtaining unit which obtains operation information indicating (i) each of positions passed through by a movable body that is moved by a user and (ii) a frequency of an operation performed on a device by a user of the movable body when the movable body is at the position; a determining unit which determines, for each of positions on a map, whether or not information presentation is allowed, based on the frequency at the position indicated by the operation information; and a creating unit which creates the map information indicating a result of the determination by the determining unit for each position on the map.

7. An information presentation device which presents information in a movable body, the device comprising:
-
a processor; and a non-transitory memory having stored thereon executable instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to perform; obtaining, from a map information creating device via a communication network, map information indicating, in an associated manner, (i) a frequency of an operation performed by a user of the movable body on a device related to predetermined information and (ii) a location on a map of the movable body at a time of the operation performed on the device, the operation being performed in response to provision of the predetermined information to the user of the movable body, the predetermined information being information on an inquiry to the user of the movable body; obtaining position information indicating a position of the movable body; identifying, based on the map information, the frequency at the location on the map indicated by the position information of the movable body, and determining whether or not the identified frequency is higher than a predetermined threshold value; and presenting information to the user of the movable body by causing output of the information when the identified frequency is determined to be higher than the threshold value. - View Dependent Claims (8)

9. A map information creation method for creating map information in a system including a movable body and a server, the server performing wireless communication with the movable body via a communication network, the map information creation method comprising:
-
obtaining, from the movable body via the communication network, operation information indicating (i) a frequency of an operation performed by a user of the movable body on a device related to predetermined information and (ii) a position of the movable body at a time of the operation performed on the device, the operation being performed in response to provision of the predetermined information to the user of the movable body, the predetermined information being information on an inquiry to the user of the movable body; comparing, for each of positions on a map, a magnitude relationship between the frequency indicated by the operation information and a predetermined threshold value, based on the obtained operation information, determining that a current position is a position at which information can be presented to the user of the movable body when the frequency is higher than the threshold value, and determining that a current position is a position at which information cannot be presented to the user of the movable body when the frequency is not higher than the threshold value; creating the map information indicating a result of the determination for each position on the map; and outputting the created map information to the movable body, the movable body presenting information to the user of the movable body using the created map information.
