　図５は、本発明の第一の実施形態における情報システム５０の処理フローを示す図である。
　次に、スマートフォンなどの端末装置１０が、あるユーザが端末装置１０の現在位置情報と関連付けて記憶部３１１や記憶部４１１に記録している写真や音声などのコンテンツである位置関連情報をダウンロードする場合を例に、第一の実施形態における情報システム５０の処理フローを説明する。 FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a processing flow of the information system 50 in the first embodiment of the present invention.
Next, the terminal device 10 such as a smartphone downloads location-related information that is a content such as a photograph or sound recorded in the storage unit 311 or the storage unit 411 in association with the current location information of the terminal device 10 by a certain user. As an example, the processing flow of the information system 50 in the first embodiment will be described.
　まず、ユーザが端末装置１０を携帯して、観光地などを歩いているときに、端末装置１０の第一通信部１０１は、第一情報通信網を介して位置関連情報有無判定装置２０と通信を行う。
　ここで、第一情報通信網は例えば携帯電話通信網である。また、ここで行う通信は、ユーザが特に意識せずに端末装置１０が自動的に行う通信である。
　この通信において、端末装置１０の位置情報取得部１０３は、例えばＧＰＳ（Ｇｌｏｂａｌ　Ｐｏｓｉｔｉｏｎｉｎｇ　Ｓｙｓｔｅｍ）から端末装置１０の位置情報を取得する（ステップＳ１）。
　通信制御部１０６は、位置情報取得部１０３が端末装置１０の位置情報を取得すると、取得した端末装置１０の位置情報を位置関連情報有無判定装置２０に送信する（ステップＳ２）。 First, when the user carries the terminal device 10 and is walking in a sightseeing spot, the first communication unit 101 of the terminal device 10 communicates with the position-related information presence / absence determination device 20 via the first information communication network. I do.
Here, the first information communication network is, for example, a mobile phone communication network. Moreover, the communication performed here is communication which the terminal device 10 performs automatically, without a user's being conscious in particular.
In this communication, the position information acquisition unit 103 of the terminal device 10 acquires the position information of the terminal device 10 from, for example, a GPS (Global Positioning System) (step S1).
When the position information acquisition unit 103 acquires the position information of the terminal device 10, the communication control unit 106 transmits the acquired position information of the terminal device 10 to the position related information presence / absence determination device 20 (step S2).
　そして位置関連情報有無判定装置２０が端末装置１０の位置情報を受信すると、位置関連情報有無判定装置２０の位置関連情報有無判定部２０１は、受信した端末装置１０の位置情報に基づいて、位置関連情報配信装置４０に当該位置情報に関連付けられた位置関連情報が存在するか否かを判定する（ステップＳ３）。 Then, when the position-related information presence / absence determination device 20 receives the position information of the terminal device 10, the position-related information presence / absence determination unit 201 of the position-related information presence / absence determination device 20 determines the position-related information based on the received position information of the terminal device 10. It is determined whether or not position information related to the position information exists in the information distribution device 40 (step S3).
　このとき、記憶部２１１は位置関連情報配信装置４０が所持する位置関連情報のデータベースを事前に記憶し、位置関連情報有無判定部２０１は、そのデータベースの登録位置と端末装置１０から受信した位置情報とを比較して位置関連情報が存在するか否かを判定する。 At this time, the storage unit 211 stores in advance a database of position-related information possessed by the position-related information distribution device 40, and the position-related information presence / absence determination unit 201 stores the registered position of the database and the position information received from the terminal device 10. To determine whether position-related information exists.
　ここで、位置関連情報存在通知部２０２は、端末装置１０の位置関連情報が存在すると判定した場合、その位置関連情報を取得するためにアクセスポイント装置３０に接続するための存在通知情報を端末装置１０へ送信する。 Here, when it is determined that the position related information of the terminal device 10 exists, the position related information presence notification unit 202 transmits the presence notification information for connecting to the access point device 30 to acquire the position related information. 10 to send.
　また、位置関連情報存在通知部２０２は、端末装置１０の位置関連情報が存在しないと判定した場合、特に何も実行せず、端末装置１０から次の位置情報が送信されるまで待機する。 Further, when it is determined that the position related information of the terminal device 10 does not exist, the position related information presence notifying unit 202 does not execute anything and waits until the next position information is transmitted from the terminal device 10.
　ステップＳ３で位置関連情報存在通知部２０２が存在通知情報を端末装置１０に送信し、端末装置１０の通信制御部１０６が存在通知情報を受信すると、端末装置１０の通信動作制御部１０７は、第二通信部１０２を起動し、受信した存在通知情報に基づいて第二情報通信網を介するアクセスポイント装置３０との通信を試みる。
　そして、端末装置１０の接続判定部１０５は、第二情報通信網と接続できるか否かを判定する（ステップＳ４）。 When the location related information presence notification unit 202 transmits the presence notification information to the terminal device 10 in step S3 and the communication control unit 106 of the terminal device 10 receives the presence notification information, the communication operation control unit 107 of the terminal device 10 The second communication unit 102 is activated and attempts to communicate with the access point device 30 via the second information communication network based on the received presence notification information.
And the connection determination part 105 of the terminal device 10 determines whether it can connect with a 2nd information communication network (step S4).
　ここで、接続判定部１０５が第二情報通信網と接続できないと判定した場合、端末装置１０の通信制御部１０６は第一情報通信網を介して位置関連情報配信装置４０と通信する。このとき、通信制御部１０６は、位置関連情報配信装置４０に位置関連情報配信の要求信号を送信する。 Here, when the connection determination unit 105 determines that it cannot connect to the second information communication network, the communication control unit 106 of the terminal device 10 communicates with the position related information distribution device 40 via the first information communication network. At this time, the communication control unit 106 transmits a request signal for position related information distribution to the position related information distribution apparatus 40.
　また、接続判定部１０５が第二情報通信網と接続できると判断した場合、通信品質測定部１０４は第一情報通信網の通信品質と第二情報通信網の通信品質を測定して両者を比較し、例えば第二情報通信網の通信が安定していて高速であり通信品質が良いと判断した場合、通信制御部１０６は第二情報通信網を介してアクセスポイント装置３０と通信する。このとき、通信制御部１０６は、アクセスポイント装置３０に位置関連情報配信の要求信号を送信する。また、通信品質測定部１０４は第一情報通信網の通信品質と第二情報通信網の通信品質を測定して両者を比較し、第一情報通信網の通信が安定していて高速であると判断した場合は、通信制御部１０６は第一情報通信網を介して位置関連情報配信装置４０と通信する。
　なお、上記の“通信が安定していて高速であり通信品質が良い”とは、例えば、電波が強く、通信の切断が無く、単位時間当たりの通信データ量が多い通信の状況のことである。 Further, when the connection determination unit 105 determines that it can connect to the second information communication network, the communication quality measurement unit 104 measures the communication quality of the first information communication network and the communication quality of the second information communication network and compares the two. For example, when it is determined that the communication of the second information communication network is stable and high-speed and the communication quality is good, the communication control unit 106 communicates with the access point device 30 via the second information communication network. At this time, the communication control unit 106 transmits a request signal for position related information distribution to the access point device 30. Further, the communication quality measuring unit 104 measures the communication quality of the first information communication network and the communication quality of the second information communication network and compares them, and the communication of the first information communication network is stable and high speed. If determined, the communication control unit 106 communicates with the position related information distribution device 40 via the first information communication network.
The above-mentioned “communication is stable, high speed, and communication quality is good” means, for example, a communication situation in which radio waves are strong, communication is not disconnected, and there is a large amount of communication data per unit time. .
　そして、位置関連情報配信装置４０が要求信号を受信した場合、位置関連情報配信装置４０の位置関連情報配信部４０１は、第一情報通信網を介して記憶部４１１が記憶している端末装置１０の位置関連情報を端末装置１０に配信する（ステップＳ５）。 When the position related information distribution device 40 receives the request signal, the position related information distribution unit 401 of the position related information distribution device 40 receives the terminal device 10 stored in the storage unit 411 via the first information communication network. Is delivered to the terminal device 10 (step S5).
　また、アクセスポイント装置３０が要求信号を受信した場合、アクセスポイント装置３０の位置関連情報配信部３０１は、第二情報通信網を介して記憶部３１１が記憶している端末装置１０の位置関連情報を端末装置１０に配信する（ステップＳ６）。 In addition, when the access point device 30 receives the request signal, the position related information distribution unit 301 of the access point device 30 performs the position related information of the terminal device 10 stored in the storage unit 311 via the second information communication network.

Here, the processing of steps S11 to S18 of the information system 50 in the second embodiment shown in FIG. 7 will be described.
　まず、ユーザは、例えば端末装置１０の機能の１つであるカメラ機能を利用して、端末装置１０の位置情報に関連付けられた写真を撮影する。そして、ユーザは、撮影した写真を端末装置１０の記憶部１１１に記憶する。 First, the user takes a picture associated with the position information of the terminal device 10 by using, for example, a camera function that is one of the functions of the terminal device 10. Then, the user stores the photographed photograph in the storage unit 111 of the terminal device 10.
　次にユーザは、記憶部１１１に記憶した写真などのコンテンツである位置関連情報をアップロードするための位置関連情報アップロード用アプリケーションを起動するために、例えば端末装置１０のタッチパネルに表示されるアイコンをタップするなどのユーザ操作を行う。
　すると、端末装置１０は、ユーザ操作に応じて位置関連情報アップロード用アプリケーションを起動する（ステップＳ１１）。 Next, the user taps an icon displayed on the touch panel of the terminal device 10, for example, in order to start a location-related information upload application for uploading location-related information that is content such as a photograph stored in the storage unit 111. Perform user operations such as
Then, the terminal device 10 activates a position related information upload application in response to a user operation (step S11).
　この位置関連情報アップロード用アプリケーションが起動すると、端末装置１０の第二通信部１０２が起動し、第二情報通信網を介して接続可能なアクセスポイント装置３０と通信を開始する（ステップＳ１２）。
　このとき、端末装置１０は、自動的にアクセスポイント装置３０と接続してもよいし、ユーザが接続先を確認しユーザ操作してアクセスポイント装置３０と接続してもよい。
　また、アクセスポイント装置３０が複数存在する場合、端末装置１０は、ユーザが接続先を選択しユーザ操作してアクセスポイント装置３０と接続してもよい。 When the location-related information upload application is activated, the second communication unit 102 of the terminal device 10 is activated, and communication with the access point device 30 connectable via the second information communication network is started (step S12).
At this time, the terminal device 10 may be automatically connected to the access point device 30 or may be connected to the access point device 30 by the user confirming the connection destination and operating the user.
When there are a plurality of access point devices 30, the terminal device 10 may be connected to the access point device 30 by the user selecting a connection destination and operating the user.
　端末装置１０がアクセスポイント装置３０と通信を開始すると、次にユーザは、位置関連情報アップロード用アプリケーションに対するユーザ操作を行って、アクセスポイント装置３０にアップロードする位置関連情報を選択する。
　すると、端末装置１０のアップロード実行部１０８は、ユーザが選択した例えば写真などのコンテンツである位置関連情報をアクセスポイント装置３０にアップロードする（ステップＳ１３）。 When the terminal device 10 starts communication with the access point device 30, the user then performs a user operation on the location related information upload application and selects location related information to be uploaded to the access point device 30.
Then, the upload execution unit 108 of the terminal device 10 uploads the position related information, which is content such as a photograph selected by the user, to the access point device 30 (step S13).
　アクセスポイント装置３０が端末装置１０から位置関連情報を受信すると、アクセスポイント装置３０の受信位置関連情報記録部３０３は、その受信した位置関連情報を記憶部３１１に記録する（ステップＳ１４）。

The burden on the 30 storage units 311 may be reduced.
Further, for example, when the data size of the position-related information received from the terminal device 10 is small, the position-related information transmission unit 302 transmits the position-related information having the small data size to the position-related information distribution device 40, so that the data size Distribution of position related information may be performed at high speed by leaving large position related information in the access point device 30.
　位置関連情報配信装置４０がアクセスポイント装置３０から位置関連情報を受信すると、位置関連情報配信装置４０の位置関連情報記録部４０２は、受信した位置関連情報を記憶部４１１に記録する（ステップＳ１６）。 When the position related information distribution device 40 receives the position related information from the access point device 30, the position related information recording unit 402 of the position related information distribution device 40 records the received position related information in the storage unit 411 (step S16). .
　また、アクセスポイント装置３０の管理情報送信部３０４は、処理フローのステップＳ１５の後、端末装置１０から受信した位置情報と関連付けられた位置関連情報の保存先情報（すなわちどの位置関連情報をアクセスポイント装置３０と位置関連情報配信装置４０とが所持しているかという情報）を位置関連情報有無判定装置２０に送信する（ステップＳ１７）。 In addition, the management information transmission unit 304 of the access point device 30 stores the storage location information of the position related information associated with the position information received from the terminal device 10 after step S15 of the processing flow (that is, which position related information is the access point). Information indicating whether the device 30 and the position-related information distribution device 40 are possessed) is transmitted to the position-related information presence / absence determination device 20 (step S17).
　位置関連情報有無判定装置２０が保存先情報を受信すると、位置関連情報有無判定装置２０の保存先情報記憶部２０３は、受信した保存先情報を記憶部２１１に記録する（ステップＳ１８）。
　そして、位置関連情報有無判定装置２０は、処理フローのステップＳ１８で記憶部２１１に記録した保存先情報に基づいて、情報システム５０全体の配信可能な位置関連情報を一元管理する。 When the location-related information presence / absence determination device 20 receives the storage location information, the storage location information storage unit 203 of the location-related information presence / absence determination device 20 records the received storage location information in the storage unit 211 (step S18).
Then, the position-related information presence / absence determination apparatus 20 centrally manages position-related information that can be distributed in the entire information system 50 based on the storage destination information recorded in the storage unit 211 in step S18 of the processing flow.
　上述の第二の実施形態における情報システム５０では、図７で示したステップＳ１１～ステップＳ１８の位置関連情報のアップロードに関する処理フローに続き、図５で示したステップＳ１～ステップＳ７のダウンロードに関する処理が行われる。 In the information system 50 in the second embodiment described above, the processing related to downloading in steps S1 to S7 shown in FIG. 5 is performed following the processing flow related to uploading the position related information in steps S11 to S18 shown in FIG.
