METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING AN ELECTRONIC APPOINTMENT SCHEDULER FOR A VEHICLE

摘要

A method and a device for providing an electronic appointment scheduler for a vehicle. Appointments are acquired that have associated time data and geographical positions; the residual amount of energy available for driving the vehicle is acquired and data relating to a geographical road network, including the geographical positions of energy-supply devices suitable for said vehicle, are acquired. Taking into account the time data and geographical positions associated with the appointments, the available residual energy amount, and the energy consumption of the vehicle on a potential travel route, a route plan and an energy fill-up plan are produced, with supplemental periods of time being calculated that are associated with the appointments and derived on the basis of the route plan and energy fill-up plan. An appointment schedule is then produced and issued which comprises these appointments as well as the supplemental time periods that are associated with these appointments.
