ROUTE ACQUISITION SYSTEM AND ARRIVAL NOTIFICATION SYSTEM FOR A ROAD SHUTTLE

摘要

P The latitude and longitude as well as the time acquired with predefined sampling intervals by a bus shuttle (1) which travels on a predetermined travel route are transmitted by radio. A user (6) specifies an ascent / descent point on the basis of the latitude / longitude and the time delivered by the bus shuttle and acquires a travel route comprising the ascent / descent point. Consequently, the user can, in a simple and instantaneous manner, acquire the travel route comprising the ascent / descent point. The user can specify the ascent / descent point using the speed calculated from the latitude / longitude and the acquired time. Thus, the user can define his desired notification point on the travel route thus acquired. In such a configuration, a system is created intended to allow, in a simple and instantaneous manner, a user of a road shuttle to acquire a route for travel of the road shuttle, comprising an ascent / descent point, and a system intended to notify the arrival of the road shuttle which allows the user to simply define his desired notification point. /P
