[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0029] In related technologies, maps on electronic devices can provide prompts such as "go straight," "turn left," and "turn right," but they are only suitable for relatively simple road conditions. They cannot well adapt to the needs of indoor environments, complex terrain, or future three-dimensional urban spaces, such as in the mountainous city of Chongqing, or in Saudi Arabia's planned "THE LINE" smart city. When roads are intricate or there are vertical differences, navigation errors are easily caused. Figure 1In the three-dimensional space shown, if a user wants to navigate from point A to point B, since points B and C coincide on the plane, the direction on the map in related technologies is always A->C, which cannot provide navigation and direction in the three-dimensional space. After the user arrives at point C, they still need to find a way to get to point B themselves, so it cannot meet the real-world navigation needs.

[0030] To address the aforementioned technical problems, embodiments of this application provide a map navigation method and apparatus.

[0031] The map navigation method provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0032] It should be noted that the map navigation method provided in this application embodiment is applicable to electronic devices. In practical applications, the electronic device may include mobile terminals such as smartphones, tablets, and personal digital assistants. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0033] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a map navigation method provided in an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps: step 201 and step 202;

[0034] In step 201, the first location information of the origin and the second location information of the destination are obtained.

[0035] In some embodiments, when a user needs navigation, they open a map application on their electronic device, which displays a map navigation interface. The user can manually enter the names of the departure point and destination in the departure and destination input fields, or they can enter them via voice. Alternatively, the map application can automatically locate the departure point and destination first, which the user then confirms. After the user confirms the departure point and destination names in the map navigation interface, the map application can obtain the first location information of the departure point and the second location information of the destination through the electronic device's built-in positioning device, such as the Global Positioning System (GPS).

[0036] In some embodiments, after a user opens a map application on an electronic device, in addition to displaying an address input box and map information, the map navigation interface can also display a navigation pointer. The navigation pointer is used to provide real-time direction for the electronic device as it moves from its origin to its destination. The navigation pointer points horizontally forward by default.

[0037] In one example, such as Figure 3As shown, when a user stands at point A facing point C and opens a map application on an electronic device, the map navigation interface 30 displayed on the electronic device shows map information 31, a navigation pointer 32, and route description information 33. The navigation pointer 32 is horizontally pointing forward by default, and the route description information 33 is the default information: horizontal 0 meters, vertical 0 meters, and slope 0 degrees. In practical applications, the electronic device can determine the user's orientation using its built-in gyroscope.

[0038] In step 202, a target navigation interface is displayed based on the first location information and the second location information. The target navigation interface includes a three-dimensional navigation route and route description information. The three-dimensional navigation route is the route between the starting point and the destination in a three-dimensional spatial coordinate system. The route description information includes horizontal information, vertical information and slope information.

[0039] In this embodiment of the application, after obtaining the first location information of the departure point and the second location information of the destination, one or more three-dimensional navigation routes are generated based on the first location information and the second location information, and one or more three-dimensional navigation routes are displayed on the map navigation interface. Each three-dimensional navigation route has a corresponding route description information.

[0040] As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the first location information of the starting point and the second location information of the destination are obtained; based on the first and second location information, a target navigation interface is displayed; wherein, the target navigation interface includes a three-dimensional navigation route and route description information, the three-dimensional navigation route is the route between the starting point and the destination in a three-dimensional spatial coordinate system, and the route description information includes horizontal information, vertical information, and slope information. Therefore, in this embodiment, when performing map navigation, providing a three-dimensional navigation route and route description information in the map navigation interface, and describing the navigation route from multiple dimensions such as horizontal, vertical, and slope dimensions through the route description information, can solve the problem in related technologies where two-dimensional maps only provide single straight, left, and right turn prompts, which cannot achieve accurate navigation for complex roads or complex terrain with vertical directions, thereby meeting real-world navigation needs.

[0041] In another embodiment provided in this application, considering that different users have different preferences for different road conditions, for example, some users do not like taking the stairs and prefer to take the elevator, while others do not like taking the elevator and prefer to take the stairs, in order to make it convenient for users to have a clear understanding of the road conditions of each segment in the three-dimensional navigation route, road condition information can also be displayed on the target navigation interface. Accordingly, the route description information also includes: information for describing the road conditions; wherein, the road conditions include at least one of the following: stairs, elevator, uphill, downhill and flat ground, and different road conditions correspond to different display methods.

[0042] For example, stairs in a 3D navigation route are shown with red lines, and elevators are shown with blue lines.

[0043] As can be seen, in this embodiment of the application, different display methods can be used to display road segments with different road conditions in the three-dimensional navigation route, so that users can intuitively understand the road conditions of the three-dimensional navigation route and make an estimate of the time and physical exertion of the entire trip, so as to help users make route selection decisions.

[0044] In another embodiment provided in this application, in order to enable users to have a more comprehensive understanding of the three-dimensional navigation route, in addition to describing the three-dimensional navigation route in the two dimensions of time and distance, a physical exertion dimension can also be added. The three-dimensional navigation route is described in the physical exertion dimension. Accordingly, the route description information also includes physical exertion information. The physical exertion information is used to represent the physical exertion required by the user from the starting point to the destination. The physical exertion information is determined based on at least one of user information, route distance, and route road conditions.

[0045] It is understandable that, considering that users of different ages typically expend different amounts of energy walking the same distance, users of different genders typically expend different amounts of energy walking the same distance, and users with different physical fitness levels typically expend different amounts of energy walking the same distance—for example, users with good physical fitness levels expend relatively less energy, while users with poor physical fitness levels expend relatively more energy—in this embodiment of the application, user information may include the user's basic personal information and physical fitness information. Basic personal information may include age, gender, etc. Physical fitness information can be obtained by reading health-related applications on electronic devices. For example, for users with fitness habits, physical fitness information can be obtained from the user's fitness data recorded in a health-related app.

[0046] As can be seen, in this embodiment of the application, the three-dimensional navigation route in the map navigation interface can display road condition description information in multiple dimensions, so that users can understand the details of the three-dimensional navigation route from multiple dimensions and provide a reference for users' subsequent route selection decisions.

[0047] In another embodiment provided in this application, when generating a three-dimensional navigation route based on the first location information and the second location information, multiple three-dimensional navigation routes can be generated from multiple dimensions. Accordingly, the target navigation interface includes N three-dimensional navigation routes, where N is an integer greater than 1. Different three-dimensional navigation routes correspond to different metrics, and the metrics include at least one of the following: shortest route distance, shortest estimated time, least physical exertion, and best overall effect. The overall effect is determined based on the route distance, estimated time, and physical exertion.

[0048] In this embodiment, different route distances, different estimated time, and different physical exertion can correspond to different values. The shorter the route distance, the larger the corresponding value; the shorter the estimated time, the larger the corresponding value; and the less physical exertion, the larger the corresponding value. The overall effect can be determined by calculating the value of (estimated time * route distance * physical exertion). The larger the value, the better the overall effect; and the smaller the value, the worse the overall effect.

[0049] In this embodiment, users can select from various recommendation methods such as time priority (shortest estimated travel time), distance priority (shortest route distance), and comfort priority (least physical exertion) to view different route options and edit route filtering conditions. Furthermore, users can manually select a route segment to block it or set it as a mandatory route. For example, if AB represents stairs, and the user does not want to take the stairs, they can long-press to select it and set it as a blocked route.

[0050] As can be seen, in this embodiment of the application, when recommending three-dimensional navigation routes to users on the map navigation interface, in addition to the two dimensions of time and distance, two dimensions of physical exertion and overall effect can be added, providing users with multiple optional three-dimensional navigation routes to meet the diverse needs of users.

[0051] In another embodiment provided in this application, when the target navigation interface includes multiple three-dimensional navigation routes, the road condition description information of multiple three-dimensional navigation routes can be displayed simultaneously, or only the road condition description information of the three-dimensional navigation route selected by the user can be displayed.

[0052] In one example, such as Figure 4 As shown, when a user searches for a navigation route from point A to point B, the three-dimensional map information 41 of the electronic device's map navigation interface 40 displays two three-dimensional navigation routes, namely AB and AFEB. The road condition "stairs" is displayed in route AB, and the road condition "elevator" is displayed in route "AFEB". The navigation pointer 42 points to point B.

[0053] After the user selects one of the three-dimensional navigation routes, such as route AB, the route description information 43 includes: the description information of route AB "distance m meters, time n minutes, energy consumption x kcal, prompt information: passing through a staircase", as well as horizontal AC meters, vertical AB meters, and slope of 45 degrees.

[0054] As can be seen, in this embodiment of the application, the route description information can describe the information of multiple dimensions of the three-dimensional navigation route, and the navigation pointer provides three-dimensional direction and route prompts, thus solving the problem of three-dimensional spatial navigation that cannot be achieved by the current single prompts for going straight, turning left, and turning right.

[0055] In another embodiment provided in this application, after step 202 above, the following step may be added:

[0056] Step 203: Perform map navigation based on the 3D navigation route selected by the user.

[0057] In this embodiment of the application, the system can receive target input from the user for the three-dimensional navigation route displayed in the map navigation interface, determine the target three-dimensional navigation route selected by the target input in response to the target input, and then perform map navigation based on the selected target three-dimensional navigation route.

[0058] In some embodiments, in order to facilitate users' understanding of the route and follow the navigation in real time, when navigating based on a three-dimensional navigation route, the three-dimensional navigation route can be decomposed into adjacent road segments, and navigation can be performed on each road segment separately. Accordingly, the above step 203 includes the following steps: step 2031, step 2032, step 2033, step 2034 and step 2035.

[0059] In step 2031, the target three-dimensional navigation route selected by the user is divided into multiple segments, wherein the multiple segments from the starting point to the destination are, in order, the first segment, the second segment, ..., the Mth segment, where M is an integer greater than 1.

[0060] In this embodiment of the application, when decomposing the three-dimensional navigation route, it can be decomposed according to the six planes of the three-dimensional space to ensure that each road segment is located in any one of the six planes, which is more in line with the user's usage habits.

[0061] In this embodiment of the application, the starting point of the first road segment is the departure point, and the ending point of the Mth road segment is the destination.

[0062] In step 2032, navigation for the first road segment is activated, the navigation pointer is directed from the starting point to the end point of the first road segment, and a broadcast reminder is given for the first road segment.

[0063] In this embodiment of the application, navigation is performed sequentially for each road segment, starting from the first road segment, and traffic information for that road segment is played.

[0064] In step 2033, when the electronic device moves to the second road segment, navigation for the second road segment is activated, the navigation pointer is directed from the end of the first road segment to the end of the second road segment, and a broadcast reminder is given for the second road segment.

[0065] In this embodiment of the application, the electronic device moves sequentially to the third segment, ..., the Mth segment.

[0066] In step 2034, when the electronic device moves to the Mth segment, navigation to the Mth segment is activated, the navigation pointer is instructed to point from the end of the (M-1)th segment to the destination, and a broadcast reminder is given for the Mth segment.

[0067] In step 2035, navigation ends once the electronic device has moved to its destination.

[0068] In one example, the following Figure 4 In the example shown, the user selects the AFEB route for navigation. First, the route is divided into three segments: segment 1 "AF", segment 2 "FE", and segment 3 "EB". Then, as... Figure 5 As shown, navigation for the first segment "AF" is initiated. Navigation pointer 42 points to point F. Route description information 44 includes: route announcements and prompts such as "Watch your step when going up stairs indoors" and "Slow down when going down steep slopes outdoors," as well as horizontal distance AF meters, vertical distance 0 meters, and slope 0 degrees.

[0069] After that, such as Figure 6 As shown, the user moves from point A to point F, activating the second route segment "FE". The navigation pointer 42 points to point E, and the route description information 45 includes route announcements and prompts, as well as horizontal distance of 0 meters, vertical distance of EF meters, and slope of 90 degrees. Next, the user moves from point F to point E, activating the third route segment "EB", with the navigation pointer 42 pointing to point B. Finally, the user moves from point E to point B, reaching the destination and ending the navigation.

[0070] In another embodiment provided in this application, step 202 above includes the following steps: step 2021.

[0071] In step 2021, the vertical drop between the origin and the destination is obtained based on the first location information and the second location information; if the vertical drop between the origin and the destination is greater than a threshold, the target navigation interface is displayed.

[0072] In this embodiment of the application, considering that the amount of data loaded during rendering of a two-dimensional navigation route in the related technology is usually less than the amount of data loaded during rendering of a three-dimensional navigation route, in order to reduce the occupation of video memory and improve the response speed, after obtaining the first location information of the starting point and the second location information of the destination, it can first determine whether there is a vertical drop between the starting point and the destination. If there is no vertical drop, or the vertical drop is small, the two-dimensional navigation route can be directly called without calling the three-dimensional navigation route; if the vertical drop is large, the three-dimensional navigation route is called.

[0073] In other words, the location information of the origin and destination is obtained first, and the type of navigation route to be displayed is determined based on the location information. The three-dimensional navigation route is only displayed when the vertical difference between the two locations exceeds a threshold.

[0074] The map navigation method provided in this application can be executed by a map navigation device. This application uses the execution of the map navigation method by a map navigation device as an example to illustrate the map navigation device provided in this application.

[0077] Display module 702 is used to display the target navigation interface based on the first location information and the second location information;

[0078] The target navigation interface includes a three-dimensional navigation route and route description information. The three-dimensional navigation route is the route between the starting point and the destination in a three-dimensional spatial coordinate system. The route description information includes horizontal information, vertical information and slope information.

[0079] As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the first location information of the starting point and the second location information of the destination are obtained; based on the first and second location information, a target navigation interface is displayed; wherein, the target navigation interface includes a three-dimensional navigation route and route description information, the three-dimensional navigation route is the route between the starting point and the destination in a three-dimensional spatial coordinate system, and the route description information includes horizontal information, vertical information, and slope information. Therefore, in this embodiment, when performing map navigation, providing a three-dimensional navigation route and route description information in the map navigation interface, and describing the navigation route from multiple dimensions such as horizontal, vertical, and slope dimensions through the route description information, can solve the problem in related technologies where two-dimensional maps only provide single straight, left, and right turn prompts, which cannot achieve accurate navigation for complex roads or complex terrain with vertical directions, thereby meeting real-world navigation needs.
