[0034] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0035] When organizing an offline market, in order to ensure that all participating vehicles can trade normally and share information in a timely manner, the organizer often needs to pre-demarcate the market area with an electronic fence. Currently, once the organizer has demarcated the market area electronic fence, it cannot be changed. However, in real-world scenarios, due to various factors, a large number of user vehicles are unable to enter the market area electronic fence, resulting in the inability to synchronize the transaction information of the user vehicles with the current market, affecting the user experience. In order to solve the technical problem that the existing market area electronic fence cannot be changed, the present invention provides the following exemplary methods, devices, electronic devices, computer program products, and readable storage media.

[0036] Exemplary Methods

[0037] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling an electronic fence in a market area according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, which specifically includes the following steps:

[0038] Step 10: Obtain the first position information of the vehicle after the vehicle passes the preset position for a set time period.

[0039] In one embodiment, the preset position refers to a preset position that is a fixed distance away from the electronic fence of the market area. For example, the preset position is 1000 meters away from the center of the electronic fence of the market area. Specifically, the vehicle can obtain the distance to the center of the electronic fence of the market area through the vehicle navigation system. The set duration refers to a preset length of time. For example, the set duration is 5 minutes, which means that the first position information of the vehicle will be obtained 5 minutes after the vehicle passes 1000 meters away from the center of the electronic fence of the market area. It should be noted that the set duration can also change dynamically according to the current traffic conditions. If there is current traffic congestion, the set duration can be extended, that is, the set duration is the length of time that can ensure that the vehicle arrives at the designated location.

[0040] Step 20: If the first location information does not match the specified location information, determine the usable area within the electronic fence of the market area.

[0041] In one embodiment, the designated location information may refer to the electronic fence of the market area. In this case, the first location information not meeting the designated location information means that the first location information is not within the electronic fence of the market area, that is, the vehicle has not entered the electronic fence of the market area within the set time period, and it is necessary to determine the usable area within the electronic fence of the market area. Of course, the designated location information may also refer to a pre-designated location for the vehicle within the electronic fence of the market area. Specifically, before the market is held, a market notice is issued and application information sent by the vehicle is received. The application information may carry information such as the vehicle model and floor area. The designated location is determined for each vehicle based on the order in which the application information is received. When a vehicle enters the electronic fence of the market area, it may be unable to reach the pre-designated location due to too many consumers or other vehicles occupying too much area. At this time, it is also necessary to determine the usable area within the electronic fence of the market area. The usable area is the area within the electronic fence of the market area that can be used to park vehicles. Specifically, the usable area = the total area of the stalls within the electronic fence of the market area - the sum of the areas of the vehicles that have entered. The total area of the stalls within the electronic fence of the market area is the data uploaded to the cloud server when the stalls are divided. When the first position information of the vehicle within the preset time period meets the specified position information, it is considered as an entered vehicle. The sum of the areas of the vehicles that have entered is determined based on the occupied area carried by the application information corresponding to the entered vehicles, and then the usable area is determined.

[0042] Step 30: If the usable area is smaller than the set value, determine the environmental data outside the electronic fence of the market area.

[0043] In one embodiment, after determining the available area, a determination is made as to whether the available area is less than a set value. If so, this indicates that there is no space for a vehicle to be parked within the electronic fence of the market area. To ensure that vehicles can participate in the current market, environmental data outside the electronic fence of the market area is determined, including but not limited to the number of pedestrians, the number of vehicles, and unoccupied area. The set value may be a predetermined average threshold for vehicle occupied area, such as a fixed value of 2m x 4.5m. Alternatively, the set value may be determined based on the occupied area specified in the vehicle's application information. In this case, the set value may be different for different vehicles, enabling different processing for different vehicles.

[0044] Step 40: Control the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area based on the environmental data and the occupied area of the vehicle.

[0045] In one embodiment, the edge position of the electronic fence in the market area is controlled based on environmental data and the occupied area of the vehicle. Different environmental data and different occupied areas of the vehicle will result in different controls on the edge position of the electronic fence in the market area, thereby achieving flexible and on-demand control of the edge position of the electronic fence in the market area.

[0046] In the above embodiment, first position information of the vehicle is obtained after the vehicle passes through a preset location for a set period of time. Then, it is determined whether the first position information matches the specified position information. If the first position information does not match the specified position information, it indicates that the vehicle has failed to reach the specified location as expected. To ensure that the vehicle can participate in the current market in a timely manner, the available area within the electronic fence of the market area is determined. It is determined whether the available area is less than a set value. If the available area is less than the set value, it indicates that there is no parking space for the vehicle within the electronic fence of the market area. Then, environmental data outside the electronic fence of the market area is determined. Based on the environmental data outside the electronic fence of the market area and the occupied area of the vehicle, the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area is controlled. The technical solution provided by the present invention determines the vehicle's position information. When the vehicle fails to reach the specified location, the environmental data outside the electronic fence of the market area is promptly determined. Based on the environmental data and the occupied area of the vehicle, the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area is flexibly controlled, thereby achieving the desired change of the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area, allowing more user vehicles to participate in the current market, synchronizing the transaction information of the user vehicles with the current market, and sharing the news within the current market, thereby improving the user experience.

[0047] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the following steps may be further included:

[0048] If the usable area is greater than the set value, a first target location is determined within the market area electronic fence. If the usable area is greater than the set value, it indicates that there is a parking space within the market area electronic fence, and the vehicle can enter the market area electronic fence to participate in the current market. Therefore, a first target location needs to be determined within the market area electronic fence. The first target location is the location determined for the vehicle to park.

[0049] After acquiring the first target location, in one possible implementation, the first target location is sent to the vehicle so that the vehicle determines a first navigation route with the first target location as the end point. That is, the first target location is sent to the vehicle so that the vehicle determines the first navigation route according to its own navigation system, and the driver drives the vehicle to the first target location according to the first navigation route and parks at the first target location, so that the user's vehicle participates in the currently held market. In another possible implementation, based on the first target location, a second navigation route is determined, and the second navigation route is sent to the vehicle. That is, the server can directly determine the second navigation route based on the first target location, and send the determined second navigation route to the vehicle, so that the driver drives the vehicle to the first target location according to the second navigation route and parks at the first target location, so that the user's vehicle participates in the currently held market.

[0050] In the above embodiment, when the usable area is larger than the set value, the first target position that can be used for parking the vehicle is determined within the electronic fence of the market area, and a parking position is found for the vehicle in time to ensure that the user's vehicle participates in the current market, and any problems that the user's vehicle may encounter are solved in time to improve the user experience.

[0051] like Figure 2 As shown in the above Figure 1 Based on the embodiment shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, obtaining the first position information of the vehicle after the vehicle passes through the preset position for a set period of time may specifically include the following steps:

[0052] Step 101: Receive second location information sent by a vehicle at a preset location.

[0053] In one embodiment, when the vehicle arrives at a preset location, it actively sends the second location information to the service end.

[0054] Step 102: If the arrival information sent by the vehicle is received within the preset time period of receiving the second position information, the current process is stopped.

[0055] In one embodiment, arrival information refers to information sent to the server after a vehicle has parked within the electronic fence of a market area, confirming that the vehicle is now eligible to participate in the current market. At this point, there is no need to monitor the vehicle, and the current process can be stopped. Specifically, upon receiving the second location information sent by the vehicle, the server immediately stores the second location information and enters a countdown monitoring state. Upon receiving the arrival information, the countdown monitoring stops. Of course, after receiving the second location information sent by the vehicle, the vehicle can also be tracked and monitored using a pre-installed image acquisition system. Upon receiving the arrival information, tracking and monitoring of the vehicle ceases, effectively conserving computing resources.

[0056] Step 103: If the arrival information sent by the vehicle is not received within a preset time period after the second location information is received, the first location information of the vehicle is obtained.

[0057] In the above embodiment, when the vehicle passes through the preset position, the server will send the second position information to the server, and then the server will pay attention to the vehicle. If the arrival information sent by the vehicle is received within the preset time length of receiving the second position information, the current process will be stopped. Only when the arrival information sent by the vehicle is not received within the preset time length of receiving the second position information, the first position information of the vehicle will be obtained, thereby effectively saving the system's computing resources and ensuring the rapid operation of the method.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown in the above Figure 1 or Figure 2 Based on the embodiment shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, step 40 controls the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area based on the environmental data and the occupied area of the vehicle, and specifically includes the following steps:

[0059] Step 401: Determine an expandable area based on the environmental data.

[0060] Step 402: If the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area is controlled.

[0061] In the above embodiment, after determining the environmental data, the expandable area is determined based on the environmental data. The expandable area refers to the area outside the electronic fence of the market area that can be used to park vehicles. If the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, it indicates that the vehicle can be parked at the position corresponding to the expandable area. Therefore, in order to ensure that the transaction information can still be synchronized to the current market and the news in the current market can be shared after the vehicle arrives at the position corresponding to the expandable area, the edge position of the electronic fence in the market area is flexibly controlled on demand according to the position corresponding to the expandable area to meet the needs of users in a timely manner.

[0062] like Figure 4 As shown in the above Figure 3 Based on the embodiment shown, if the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, step 402 controls the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area, including:

[0063] Step 4021: If the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, determine the current distance between the expandable area and the electronic fence of the market area;

[0064] Step 4022: If the current distance is less than the set distance value, the edge of the market area electronic fence is extended to the expandable area;

[0065] Step 4023: If the current distance is greater than the set distance value, a new electronic fence is added at the edge of the expandable area.

[0066] In the above embodiment, when the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, the current distance between the expandable area and the electronic fence of the market area is further determined. If the current distance is less than the set distance value, it means that the determined expandable area is close to the electronic fence of the market area. In this case, the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area can be controlled by extending the edge of the electronic fence of the market area to the expandable area. For example, if the distance value is set to 50 meters, Figure 5 As shown, if at the current moment there are vehicles 1, 2 and 3 that have not entered, the determined expandable area is greater than the occupied area of the vehicles, and the current distance between the determined expandable area and the electronic fence of the market area is less than 50 meters, then the edge of the electronic fence of the market area will be directly expanded to the expandable area. If it is determined that the current distance is greater than the set distance value, that is, the distance between the determined expandable area and the electronic fence of the market area is far, then an electronic fence can be directly added to the edge of the expandable area to achieve control of the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area. For example, if the distance value is set to 50 meters, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, if at the current moment there are vehicles 1, 2 and 3 that have not entered, the determined expandable area is greater than the occupied area of the vehicles, and the current distance between the determined expandable area and the electronic fence of the market area is greater than 50 meters, then a new electronic fence is directly added at the edge of the expandable area. In this embodiment, whether to extend the edge of the electronic fence to the expandable area or to add a new electronic fence at the edge of the expandable area is determined based on the current distance between the expandable area and the electronic fence of the market area, which has flexibility and accuracy. It should be noted that in one possible implementation method, when there is an expandable area, an electronic fence can be added at the edge of the expandable area (such as Figure 7 shown).

[0067] In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, after controlling the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area if the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle in step 402, the method further includes determining a second target location within the electronic fence of the market area after controlling the edge position. The second target location is a location selected for the vehicle to park at a location corresponding to the expandable area. After obtaining the second target location, in one possible implementation, the second target location is transmitted to the vehicle, causing the vehicle to determine a third navigation route with the second target location as its destination. Specifically, the second target location is transmitted to the vehicle, causing the vehicle to determine the third navigation route using its navigation system. The driver drives the vehicle to the second target location according to the third navigation route and parks at the second target location, allowing the user's vehicle to participate in the current market. In another possible implementation, a fourth navigation route is determined based on the second target location and transmitted to the vehicle. Specifically, the server can directly determine the fourth navigation route based on the second target location and transmit the determined fourth navigation route to the vehicle, causing the driver to drive the vehicle to the second target location according to the fourth navigation route and park at the second target location, allowing the user's vehicle to participate in the current market. In this embodiment, if the expandable area is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, the second target position is determined for the vehicle in a timely manner so that the user's vehicle can participate in the market in a timely manner.

[0068] like Figure 8 As shown in the above Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 or Figure 4 On the basis of the embodiment shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes: step 50, if the expandable area is smaller than the occupied area of the vehicle, sending a notification message to the vehicle.

[0069] In the above embodiment, if the determined expandable area is smaller than the vehicle's footprint, a notification message is sent to the vehicle, informing the user that they cannot participate in the current market. If, at the start of the market, only a vehicle's application is received but no designated seat is assigned to it, then when the expandable area is smaller than the vehicle's footprint, a notification message is also sent to the vehicles that have not yet arrived, allowing users to immediately be informed of their inability to participate in the current market, providing convenience and improving the user experience.

[0070] like Figure 9 As shown in the above Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 or Figure 5 Based on the embodiment shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes:

[0071] Step 60: If the first location information does not match the designated location information, the vehicle is marked as a non-entry vehicle.

[0072] Step 70 : Determine the occupied area of the vehicles based on the number and models of the currently non-entering vehicles.

[0073] In the above embodiment, if the first location information does not match the specified location information, the vehicle is marked as a non-entering vehicle. Therefore, there may be multiple non-entering vehicles at the same time. Figure 5 As shown, there are vehicles 1, 2, and 3 that have not entered. The number and model of the currently unentered vehicles are determined, and the occupied area of the vehicles is determined. That is, the occupied area of the vehicle is the sum of the occupied areas of all currently unentered vehicles. During a market, vehicles may enter the market area's electronic fence at any time and from any direction. Therefore, the system may process multiple vehicles simultaneously. To ensure processing speed, the occupied area of the vehicles can be determined based on the number and model of the currently unentered vehicles.

[0074] like Figure 10 As shown in the above Figure 9 Based on the embodiment shown, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, step 40 controls the edge position of the electronic fence of the market area based on the environmental data and the occupied area of the vehicle, including:

[0075] Step 403: Determine the minimum occupied area based on the model of the vehicle that has not currently entered.

[0076] In one embodiment, the models of the vehicles that have not yet entered are determined. Based on the vehicle models, the occupied areas of each vehicle are determined. The occupied areas of each vehicle are sorted to determine the minimum occupied area. Specifically, the models of the vehicles that have not yet entered can be determined based on the application information of each vehicle that has not yet entered. Of course, an image acquisition system can also be used to obtain images of the vehicles that have not yet entered, recognize the images, and determine the models of the vehicles that have not yet entered.

[0077] Step 404: If the expandable area determined based on the environmental data is smaller than the occupied area of the vehicle but larger than the minimum occupied area, an electronic fence is added at the edge of the expandable area.

[0078] In one embodiment, if the number of vehicles that have not currently entered is greater than or equal to 2, the occupied area of the vehicle is the sum of the occupied areas of the vehicles that have not currently entered. In this case, the determined expandable area is smaller than the occupied area of the vehicle and larger than the minimum occupied area, that is, only some of the vehicles that have not currently entered can participate in the currently held market. At this time, an electronic fence is still added to the edge of the expandable area. It should be noted that if the expandable area determined based on the environmental data is smaller than the minimum occupied area, a notification message is sent to the vehicles that have not currently entered, informing each vehicle that has not currently entered that it cannot participate in the currently held market. If the expandable area determined based on the environmental data is larger than the occupied area of the vehicle, the edge position of the electronic fence in the market area is controlled, which corresponds to the content of step 402.

[0079] The method further includes: step 405, selecting a target vehicle from the vehicles that have not currently entered.

[0080] In one embodiment, the target vehicle is a vehicle selected from among the currently unentered vehicles that is eligible to participate in the current market. Specifically, the model of the currently unentered vehicles is determined, and the footprint of each currently unentered vehicle is determined. If the determined expandable area is only slightly larger than the minimum footprint, the currently unentered vehicle corresponding to the minimum footprint is the target vehicle. If the expandable area is larger than the maximum footprint of the currently unentered vehicles, or larger than the sum of the footprints of multiple currently unentered vehicles but smaller than the sum of the footprints of all currently unentered vehicles, the target vehicle can be determined based on the order in which the currently unentered vehicles applied for admission or the order in which they arrived at the preset location.

[0081] Step 406: Determine a third target location in the expandable area of the electronic fence added to the edge.

[0082] In one embodiment, the third target location is a location selected for the target vehicle in the expandable area for parking the vehicle.

[0083] Step 407: Send the third target position to the target vehicle, so that the target vehicle determines a fifth navigation route with the third target position as the end point.

[0084] In one embodiment, the third target location is sent to the target vehicle so that the target vehicle determines a fifth navigation route with the third target location as the end point. That is, the third target location is sent to the target vehicle so that the target vehicle determines a fifth navigation route based on its own navigation system. The driver drives the vehicle to the third target location according to the fifth navigation route and parks at the third target location, so that the user vehicle participates in the currently held market. Of course, step 407 can also be based on the third target location, determining a sixth navigation route, and sending the sixth navigation route to the target vehicle. That is, the server can directly determine the sixth navigation route based on the third target location, and send the determined sixth navigation route to the target vehicle, so that the driver drives the target vehicle to the third target location according to the sixth navigation route and parks at the third target location, so that the user vehicle participates in the currently held market.

[0085] In the above embodiment, in order to ensure that more user vehicles can participate in the currently held market, the minimum occupied area is determined. When the expandable area determined according to the environmental data is smaller than the occupied area of the vehicle and larger than the minimum occupied area, a target vehicle is selected from the vehicles that have not currently entered, and a third target position is selected for the target vehicle so that the target vehicle can be parked at the third target position, ensuring that user vehicles can participate in the currently held market.
