发明名称 Presentation of a digital map
摘要 The invention relates to a method, a map providing device, a computer program and a computer program product for presenting a digital map via a map presenting unit of a user terminal. An object (01) and a first position (P1) of this object are obtained together with a digital map (M1) comprising a reference position (RP) and the first position (P1). A line (L1) is determined, which at one end is to be connected to the reference position and at another opposite end to the first position. Then a geographical area (A1) of the digital map including the reference position is presented. If the first position (P1) is outside of the geographical area then a part (L1A) of the line stretching through the geographical area is presented. If not no line is presented. The appearance of the line when presented is dependent on the distance between the reference position and the first position.

主权项 1. A method for presenting a digital map via a map presenting unit of a user terminal comprising: obtaining a first object and a first position of this first object; obtaining a digital map, said digital map comprising a reference position and the first position; determining a first line, which at one end is connected to the reference position and at another opposite end to said first position; and outputting a geographical area of the digital map including the reference position to the display device associated with the user terminal, wherein outputting the geographical area of the digital map comprises: outputting a part of the first line that stretches through the geographical area to the display device when said first position is outside of the geographical area, and not outputting the first line to the display device when said first position is not outside of the geographical area, wherein the first line is at one end connected to the reference position and at another opposite end to said first position; andwherein an appearance of the first line, when output to the display device, visually indicates, and is dependent on, a distance between the reference position and the first position; providing, in the geographical area on the display device, a user input area extending between the reference position and the first position, and encircling said first line; and detecting a user input in the user input area and executing a map selecting function responsive to the detected user input.
