AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Impossible to "drill down" through the point of interest data in order to specify further details of interest (e.g. "Italian restaurants"), and thus further limit the results in order to reduce the workload of the user of the PND when reviewing the search results
While third-party collections of concerns are available, installing third-party collections of concerns into a PND is relatively cumbersome for users to perform
Also, third-party collections of concerns are not designed for scalability

Embodiment Construction

[0076] In the following description, the same reference numerals will be used throughout to identify the same parts.

[0077] Embodiments of the invention will now be described with particular reference to a PND and / or a device management application therefor. However, it should be kept in mind that the teachings of the present invention are not limited to PNDs and device management applications therefor, but are instead generally applicable to any type of processing device configured to execute navigation software in a portable or mobile manner. , to provide route planning and navigation functionality. It follows, therefore, that in the context of this application, a navigation device is intended to include (but is not limited to) any type of route planning and navigation device, regardless of whether the device is embodied as a PND, a vehicle such as a car, or an actual Portable computing resources such as portable personal computers (PCs), mobile phones, or personal digita...

Abstract

The invention provides a location data processing apparatus which comprises a data enrichment module (171) arranged to receive, when in use, content generated in response to a content request. The data enrichment module (171) is arranged to embed location importation data in the content prior to presentation thereof. The location importation data is organized in accordance with a data structure definition.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to, for example, a location information importing device that receives data and enriches the type of the received data. The invention also relates to location information ingestion methods of the type, for example, that receive requests for content and serve said requests for content with enriched data. Background technique [0002] Portable computing devices, such as portable navigation devices (PNDs) incorporating GPS (Global Positioning System) signal reception and processing functionality, are well known and widely used as in-vehicle or other vehicular navigation systems. [0003] In general, a modern PND includes a processor, memory (at least one and usually both volatile and non-volatile), and map data stored within the memory. It is not uncommon for the processor and memory to cooperate to provide an execution environment in which a software operating system can be established, and in addition to provide one or more additi...
