Search recommending method and device for map searching

Abstract

The invention provides a search recommending method and device for map searching. Point of interest (POI) position coordinates are recorded in a POI index database built in advance. The method includes that S1, a keyword currently input in a search box by a user is obtained; S2, the keyword is matched with an index in the POI index database, a POI name and a POI position coordinate corresponding to a matched index are determined; S3, searching advice is provided for the user by means of the determined POI name in the step 2, and distance between the POI position coordinate and the position coordinate where the user is located is provided in searching advice. When the user only wants to obtain the distance from the current position to a certain POI, or wants to obtain the distance between the current position to a certain POI as a reference before specific location or path planning, by means of the method and device, operation is simple, and network flow is reduced.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer applications, in particular to a search suggestion method and device for map search. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the rapid development of computer technology, search engines have become an important means for people to obtain information and have gradually penetrated into various fields. Map search is one of the fields that develop rapidly and are widely used. [0003] The current service items of map search mainly include: location query, bus query, line query, etc. For example, when a user wants to query the location of a certain point of interest (POI), the route to a certain POI, or the distance to a certain POI, the most common way is to first enter the name of the POI in the search box provided by the map application. Name, and then the map search engine can search for the specific location information of the POI on the map and mark it to the user. If the user wants to continue...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, at some point, the user may only want to know the distance from the current location to a certain POI, so it needs to go through the above steps to know, or the user wants to refer to the distance from the current location to a certain POI before deciding whether to travel. To determine whether to travel or not after the distance, it also needs to go through the above steps to know. On the one hand, the operation is cumbersome, and on the other hand, it also wastes network traffic
