Guidance information generating device, guidance information generating method and guidance information generating program

摘要

Search criterion information, which indicates a search criterion is transmitted to a search server, destination point information on a destination point, which is a point found by the search server based on the search criterion, is obtained, a candidate point database that stores candidate point information on a candidate point connected to a road in association with the candidate point is searched, the candidate point associated with the candidate point information having a similarity to the destination point information, higher than or equal to a predetermined reference similarity, is identified as an arrival point, and first guidance information that indicates a first route to the arrival point is generated when the arrival point has been identified and second guidance information that indicates a second route to a point closest to the destination point among points on roads is generated when the arrival point has not been identified.

主权项

1. A guidance information generating device characterized by comprising:
a search criterion information transmission unit that transmits search criterion information, which indicates a search criterion, to a search server (20) that is a search provider on Internet; a destination point information acquisition unit that acquires destination point information on a destination point including information indicating a position of the destination point, name of the destination point, address of the destination point and telephone number of the destination point, which is a point searched in a destination point database stored in the search server on the basis of the search criterion and which is searched among points including points not connected to a road, from the search server; an arrival point identifying unit that searches a candidate point database stored in the guidance information generating device that stores candidate point information on a candidate point connected to the road in association with the candidate point, and that identifies the candidate point associated with the candidate point information including at least one of name of the candidate point matching to the name of the destination point and telephone number of the candidate point matching to the telephone number of the destination point, as an arrival point; and a guidance information generating unit that generates first guidance information that indicates a first route to the arrival point when the arrival point has been identified and that generates second guidance information that indicates a second route to a point closest to the destination point among points on roads when the arrival point has not been identified; wherein the guidance information generating unit generates the first guidance information that causes a display device to display the first route and a position of the destination point when the arrival point has been identified.
