The present invention relates to a vehicle operation information processing method and a vehicle operation information processing system.

  Due to the widespread use of private cars, the use of buses and taxi (hereinafter collectively referred to as “buses”) has increased until it is difficult to manage with normal bus and taxi operation methods. Demand buses and demand sharing taxi systems (hereinafter collectively referred to as “demand vehicle systems”) that operate according to user demand are beginning to spread. Such a demand vehicle system accepts a demand by telephone or the like, schedules an operation according to the demand, and operates a bus or the like.

  In order to operate such a system, it takes time and labor to manually input each stop in the system when accepting demand, and as the scale increases, the labor cost of operations has been increased.

  For this reason, in some demand vehicle systems, the user is registered as a member, the telephone number from the user is automatically acquired by CTI (Computer Telephony Integration), and the usage history information of the user is displayed. Therefore, there is a method for simplifying the input of the getting-on / off stop. However, in this case, there was a sense of anxiety that personal information that is not necessary for the demand vehicle system would be known, and a sense of resistance to the registration itself in the first place.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, by analyzing the accumulated data of co-occurrence pair information such as boarding and getting off at the time of use, extracting and displaying information according to various conditions, Vehicle operation information processing method, vehicle operation information processing device, and vehicle operation information that can simplify the setting of a stop by presenting a candidate pair of getting on and off according to the scene and automatically create an operation plan based on demand It relates to a processing system.

A demand requested or notified through the network is denoted as demand DMD 3.

  Although only one bus 20 is shown in FIG. 1, it goes without saying that a plurality of buses 20 may be provided.

  The configuration of each element of the demand bus system 10 described above is shown in FIG. 2 in a block diagram. As shown in FIG. 2, the management center 30 includes: (a) an operator who resides in the management center 30 with demand DMD1 and DMD3 requested via the public line network from the user's telephone 51 or mobile phone 53; A telephone 31 to receive; (b) a communication apparatus 32 that receives a demand DMD 2 notified from the reception terminal apparatus 52 via a data communication network such as the Internet; and (c) a demand or communication apparatus input by an operator that receives the telephone 31. A demand reception processing device 35 that responds to or processes the demand notified by 32, creates a bus operation plan, and creates and operates a demand bus utilization result database 60 to be described later, and (d) the demand reception processing device 35 And a transmission device 34 for transmitting the created operation route instruction data RTD via the mobile phone network. To have.

  In addition, the management center 30 includes a storage device 38 that stores various data, a liquid crystal display that displays information from an input device 39T such as a keyboard and mouse, and a demand reception processing device 35 for an operator to input data and commands to the demand processing device 33. A display device 40D such as a display is provided. The input device 39T and the display device 40D are connected to the demand processing device 33. Further, the storage device 38 includes a usage record database 60 therein.

  The demand processing device 33 is notified from the reception terminal device 52 installed in a facility having many users (i) demand DMD1 and demand DMD3 that the bus user receives from the telephone 51, the mobile phone 53, and the management center operator from the telephone 31. Demand reception processing device 35 that performs response and processing for reception of demand DMD2 received by communication device 32, and (ii) demand DMD1, DMD2, and DMD3 input by demand reception processing device 35 A bus operation plan is created, the arrival time at the bus stop in accordance with the operation plan is returned to the demand reception processing device, and operation route instruction data is transmitted to the mobile phone installed on the bus 20 via the transmission device 34.

The configuration of the usage record database 60 is shown in FIG. In the usage record database 60, a plurality of demand information is registered for one encrypted telephone number. In the figure, “phone number” 100 is representatively shown. Each demand information 101 _j has data items 111 _j to 116 _j , respectively. “Boarding stop” 111 _j is a boarding stop designated in the demand. The “getting off stop” 112 _j is a desired getting off stop designated in the demand. “Boarding month” 113 _j is obtained from the system date set in the management center 30 when the demand is issued. “Boarding day” 114 _j is the same as the day of the week when the demand is issued. “Boarding time zone” 115 _j is obtained by appropriately obtaining the time zone from the desired boarding time specified in the demand. The weather information 116 _j is obtained by appropriately acquiring and registering the weather of the day. Depending on the demand, the telephone number may not enter from the CTI. In this case, a dummy value is set for the telephone number.

  Note that the above-described encryption may be one-way encryption so that the encrypted telephone number cannot be decrypted by the system administrator.

[Operation]
Next, processing of bus operation information in the demand bus system configured as described above will be described. For the sake of simplification of description, a case where there is only one bus 20 will be described as an example.

  As a premise, it is assumed that sufficient usage record data is stored in the usage record database 60. In the early stage of introduction, not only actual use data but also a stop-on / off station pair that is expected to be used frequently can be given as virtual data.

<< When processing demand DMD1 from the telephone 51 >>
The operator inputs the weather of the day when starting the reception work. This is because the bus service may be affected by the weather. This input can be replaced by acquisition of weather information from the Internet and automated. Further, the input device 39T such as a keyboard and a mouse and the display device 40D such as a liquid crystal display connected to the demand reception processing device 35 are used only when processing the demand DMD1 or DMD3, which is a case where an operator is present. Is done.

  First, when the user calls the management center from the telephone 51, the operator responds with the telephone 31. At that time, the demand reception processing device 35 acquires the telephone number over which the CTI in the device is functioning and changes the number to an encrypted one. Hereinafter, the encrypted telephone number is simply referred to as “telephone number”. The reason for encryption is to protect personal information. The operator should not know the telephone number before encryption. It is also registered in an encrypted state in a usage record database 60 described later.

  The demand reception processing device 35 sends the telephone number to the usage record database management device 37, and the use record database management device 37 extracts the use number database from the use record database 60 and sorts in the order of occurrence frequency. It returns to the demand reception processing device 35.

  When the list of departure / arrival stop pairs by frequency of occurrence extracted by telephone number is too complicated and too many, the usage record database management device 37 follows the instructions from the operator or the contents set in the usage record database management device 37. , “Month”, “day of the week”, “time zone”, and “weather” can be filtered by attaching item weights to the usage conditions. On the other hand, if the number is small, it is not limited to the pair of stop points that are extracted using the input phone number as a key, but frequently occurs at the stop point specified by the phone number or the boarding area including the stop point. It is also possible to extract a considerable number of boarding / exiting stop pairs and to obtain a list of extracted getting-off stops. If such actual data does not exist, the operator directly listens to the name of the boarding / alighting stop, searches using the name or address reading as a key, and inputs the boarding / stopping station.

As a result of such processing, a boarding / alighting stop list 120 as shown in FIG. 4 is displayed. This is basically a search based on the input telephone number from the usage record database 60, and a pair of boarding and alighting stops arranged in order from the most used records. Since the record data is provided for the operator's input work, it is displayed as a “board stop candidate” 121 _k and a “get off stop candidate” 122 _k .

  Next, the operator can ask the user about the boarding and alighting stops, and if an entry corresponding to the boarding / stopping station list 120 is found, the input process can be performed by designating that item.

  The designation can be made for each of the boarding stop or the getting-off stop. Further, only one of them may be designated, and in that case, a search input is performed for a stop that has not been entered by reading the name or address.

  When the entry of the boarding / alighting stop is completed, the operator asks the user and inputs the desired boarding time. When the input is made, the demand reception processing device 35 passes the above-mentioned boarding / alighting stop and the input boarding desired time to the operation plan calculation device 36 as demand reception information.

  The operation plan calculation device 36 automatically creates a revised operation plan by adding new demand demand to the previous operation plan. In the preparation, first of all, whether it is possible to pass the desired stop at the new demand without changing the arrival time at the stop where the user gets on and the stop already decided in the existing operation plan. Is calculated. For the calculation, the road and distance between the stops are used directly. If the result of the calculation is affirmative, the desired boarding time on demand is set as the possible boarding time. On the other hand, if the result of the calculation is negative, the passable time at the desired stop is calculated and set as the possible boarding time. Then, the calculated possible boarding time corresponding to the new demand reception information is returned to the demand reception processing device 35.

  The operator informs the user of the possible boarding time returned. When the user informs the operator that he / she accepts the reported possible boarding time, the acceptance is completed, and when the user is informed that the acceptance is not possible, the acceptance is canceled.

  When the reception is completed, the demand reception processing device 35 transmits the confirmed boarding / exiting stop and the possible boarding time to the operation plan calculation device 36 again. Then, the operation plan calculation device 36 transmits the latest operation route instruction data RTD to the mobile phone installed on the bus 20 via the transmission device 34. The bus 20 operates in accordance with an RTD instruction including the revised information. Demand can be received even near the scheduled time of passing the desired stop even if the bus is in service.

  Furthermore, the demand reception processing device 35 passes the demand reception information to the usage record database management device 37 regardless of whether the reception is completed or the reception is canceled, and the usage record database management device 37 adds the record data to the storage device 38, Regular processing of sorting and counting by each use condition item is performed. With the above, the process of the demand DMD 1 is completed.

Further, in the above processing, when the CTI telephone number cannot be obtained, the name of the stop is heard and input from the user, and in this case, the demand reception processing device 35 uses the stop name. The data is transferred to the database management device 37. Then, the usage record database management device 37 reads the drop-off station list 130, which is an order of occurrence frequency of the stop corresponding to the boarding stop as shown in FIG. Return to 35. The operator can perform input processing by designating the getting-off stop by selecting the getting-off stop candidate 132 _m . By doing so, it is possible to simplify the input operation of the getting-off stop in the demand reception processing device 35.

<< When processing demand DMD3 from mobile phone 53 >>
In the case of use from the mobile phone 53, the correspondence relationship between the phone number information by CTI and the fixed location is not necessarily established, but since there is a specific tendency such as the range of action of each user, Similarly, it is possible to make use of the occurrence frequency stop / stop pair list. The operation is the same as when the demand DMD 1 is processed.

<< When processing demand DMD2 from the reception terminal device 52 >>
When the reception terminal device 52 installed in a facility with many users issues a reception start request, the reception terminal device 52 transmits a start request to the demand reception processing device 35 via the data communication line and the communication device 32. In this case, the demand is transmitted / received by an operation on the screen of the reception terminal device 52 of the user without using the operator. Upon receiving the demand DMD 3, the demand reception processing device 35 first notifies the usage record database management device 37 of the installation location information of the reception terminal device 52. The usage record database management device 37 extracts a list of getting-off stops with a history of use from the nearest stop at the installation location of the reception terminal device 52 from the usage record database 60 and sorts them in order of occurrence frequency. It returns to the reception processing device 35.

  Here, when the extracted stop stop pair list according to the occurrence frequency order is complicated and too many, the usage record database management is performed according to the contents set in the use record database management device 37 as in the case of the processing of the DMD 1. The device 37 can be narrowed down based on a use condition including at least one of “month”, “day of the week”, “time zone”, and “weather”. On the other hand, when the number is small, it is possible to extract a considerable number of boarding / stopping station pairs corresponding to the input boarding station frequently appearing in the district to which the boarding station belongs, and additionally presenting them. In this case, it is necessary to register the district to which the stop belongs.

  The demand reception processing device 35 sends a list of stoppages in descending order of occurrence frequency to the reception terminal device 52 via the communication device 32. In this case, since the boarding stops have been determined, the same stop list list 130 as in FIG. 5 is displayed on the screen.

  If there is a destination in the list, the user selects that item to input the desired stop, and further inputs the desired boarding time. When the destination is not in the getting-off stop candidate list 130, the search input by the stop name is performed.

  When the getting-off stop and the desired boarding time are input, the data is transmitted from the reception terminal device 52 to the demand reception processing device 35 of the management center. The demand reception processing device 35 passes to the operation plan calculation device 36 reception information indicating that the boarding stop is the nearest boarding stop from the reception terminal device. The operation plan calculation device 36 adds a new demand demand to the previous operation plan and creates a revised operation plan in the same manner as when the demand DMD 1 is processed, and the demand reception processing device 35 indicates the possible boarding time for the demand reception information. Return to. The demand reception processing device 35 transmits the possible boarding time to the reception terminal device 52 via the communication device 32.

  When the user who has confirmed this on the screen operates the reception terminal device 52 and receives a response from the reception terminal device 52 that the user accepts it, the reception is completed, and there is a response that it is not accepted. In this case, the reception will be canceled. As with the case of the telephone 51, the demand reception processing device 35 passes the reception information to the usage record database management device 37 regardless of whether the reception is completed or the reception is canceled. The usage record database management device 37 reflects the received information on the use record database 60.

  As described above, in the embodiment of the present invention, first, at the time of receiving a demand, candidate boarding / stopping station information for simplifying the setting work of the boarding / exiting stop is obtained as a demand result that is an accumulation of past demand. Derived based on Next, reception information including the candidate boarding station and the candidate boarding station is set based on the candidate boarding station information.

  Subsequently, based on the reception information, a vehicle operation plan for one or more scheduled getting-on / off stations including the scheduled getting-on / off station is automatically created. Here, if there is an existing operation plan, the operation route is created by a mechanized method so that the operation based on the new reception information is incorporated into the operation. If there is no existing operation plan, an operation based on new reception information is appropriately created. In the operation plan notification step, the updated operation plan is notified to the vehicle. The vehicle operates the vehicle according to the notified operation plan.

  Therefore, according to such a method, it is possible to simplify the stop setting by using past demand results, and to automatically create an operation plan based on demand, minimizing human resources and the like. It is possible to easily realize the operation by demand.

  In the vehicle operation information processing method of the present invention, based on the notified access information, a list of boarding stop information and getting-off stop information associated with the access information is created from the demand results, and it is used as candidate boarding stop information. Present.

  Access information is partly encrypted phone numbers. This is because personal information can be protected in this way. The encryption method is a method that cannot be restored later.

  In the embodiment of the present invention, based on the notified desired stop, based on the demand results, a list of stop information associated with the stop information that is the desired stop is created, and the candidate stop Present as information. In this case, information indicating that the stop designated as the desired boarding stop is the boarding stop is read from the demand record, and a list of the getting-off stops for the boarding stop is presented.

  In the embodiment of the present invention, the information registered in the demand performance based on the candidate getting-off / stop information is further considered usage condition information including at least one of the month, the day of the week, the time zone, and the weather. It is also possible to present a usage condition extraction list created in this way. Therefore, if the day of the week or time of day matches with the predetermined usage condition data based on the list from the demand record, the weight is doubled or tripled to meet the demand according to the situation when the demand is received. Those with a high probability can be preferentially extracted.

  In the embodiment of the present invention, candidate boarding / alighting stop information is presented in descending order of the total number of cases in the demand record. As a result, it is possible to preferentially present a highly probable item that matches the demand.
