A method and device for assisting a user in locating a vehicle

Abstract

The present invention relates to the technical field of information processing, particularly to a method and an apparatus for assisting a user in vehicle positioning. The method comprises: determiningthe position of a target vehicle, generating a plane graph including the position of the target vehicle and the positions of the surrounding vehicles within a predetermined range around the target vehicle position, highlighting the position of the target vehicle, and transmitting the plane graph to a user terminal. According to the present invention, with the method and the apparatus, the plane graph including the position of the target vehicle is generated for the passenger after the driver arrives at the appointed boarding place, the plane graph contains the position of the target vehicle and the positions of the surrounding vehicles, and the passenger can rapidly position the relative position of the driver within a small range through the plane graph after the passenger arrives at theboarding place, such that the problem that the passenger rapidly finds the vehicle of the driver within a small range in the case of the multiple vehicles can be solved, and the advantages of convenience, rapidness and effective time saving can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of information processing, in particular to a method and device for assisting a user in locating a vehicle. Background technique [0002] After the passenger initiates a taxi order and the driver accepts the order, due to too many vehicles around the agreed pick-up location, it often happens that the driver and the passenger cannot find each other. There are mainly two existing solutions, one of which is to display the driver’s car model, color, license plate number or navigation route on the passenger terminal; the other is to install LED lights on the driver’s car. After the passenger chooses the color, it is convenient for the driver to turn on the light. Passengers find driver vehicle. However, these two technical solutions are to inform the passenger of a certain feature of the driver's vehicle, and the passenger follows the feature to find the driver's vehicle; or the passenger arrives at the boarding...
