[0002] The store patrol assistant is a system that integrates mobile application technology and quality management theory. The store patrol assistant realizes standardized "store opening" through "fine-grained" and "visualized" store patrol methods to solve the problems of difficult standardized operations and low execution capabilities encountered by chain brands in the process of rapid store opening.

[0003] The store inspection assistant is equipped with a clock-in function, which is used for: users to clock in at designated locations. The clock-in data can be used to determine the actual store inspection situation, providing a reliable basis for subsequent data analysis.

[0004] However, the clock-in function of the existing store patrol assistant can only clock in according to the clock-in location set on the map. Summary of the invention

[0013] When x>b, it is confirmed that the user opening fails.

[0014] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, the process of determining the user's current location includes: determining the actual distance between the user coordinates and the base station coordinates through the user coordinates and the base station coordinates; when the actual distance is different from the signal propagation distance, correcting the user position according to the actual distance and the signal propagation distance to obtain the user's current location.

[0015] In combination with the first aspect, in one implementation, the actual distance is calculated as follows:

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] The flowcharts shown in the accompanying drawings are only examples and do not necessarily include all the contents and operations / steps, nor must they be executed in the order described. For example, some operations / steps may also be decomposed, combined or partially merged, so the actual execution order may change according to actual conditions.

[0033] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a clocking-in method for a store patrol assistant, the steps of the method comprising: presetting a designated clocking-in location and clocking-in distance, and when a user needs to clock in, when the distance between the user's current location and the clocking-in location is within the clocking-in distance, confirming that the user has successfully clocked in.

[0035] It can be seen that compared with the prior art that can only check in according to the check-in location set on the map, the present invention can preset the designated check-in location and check-in distance according to different needs. On this basis, even if the user is not at the check-in location, as long as the user is within the check-in distance, it can be confirmed that the user has successfully checked in.

[0036] Therefore, the present invention provides a method for customizing the effective punch-in area according to different requirements, which is more flexible and improves the user experience.

[0037] In one embodiment, the process of confirming that the user has successfully clocked in in the above method includes: allowing the user to clock in by location.

[0038] Furthermore, in the above method, when the distance between the user's current location and the check-in location is within the check-in distance, the process of confirming that the user has successfully checked in includes: determining whether the distance between the user's current location and the check-in location is within the check-in distance, and if so, allowing the user to perform positioning check-in; otherwise, prohibiting the user from performing positioning check-in, and allowing the user to perform image check-in (i.e., taking a photo to check in).

[0039] The above embodiment has only one constraint condition, which is the punch-in distance. This is a weak punch-in method. The following is an embodiment to illustrate a strong punch-in method based on this.

[0040] In this embodiment, the preset punch-in distance includes the positioning punch-in distance and the image punch-in distance, and the image punch-in distance is greater than the positioning punch-in distance; see Figure 1 As shown, the distance is expressed as a radius, the positioning check-in radius is a, and the image check-in radius is b. On this basis, the process of confirming that the user has successfully checked in when the distance between the user's current location and the check-in location is within the check-in distance in the above method is defined as follows:

[0041] Define the distance between the user's current location and the check-in location as x:

[0042] When x≤a, the user is allowed to clock in at a certain location, and the clock-in is directly confirmed to be successful;

[0043] When a<x≤b, the user is allowed to punch in with an image, and the success of the punch in can be confirmed based on the image;

[0044] When x>b, it is confirmed that the user has failed to open the card, and a prompt "You are not within the check-in range" may be displayed.

[0045] The above-mentioned weak punching method and strong punching method can be selected according to the needs of the user. In the specific use process, when executing a task, the user is required to create a planned task, select the planned task, go to the store, and punch in according to the punching method. If the punching is successful, the task will be jumped to start executing the task content, otherwise the task cannot be executed.

[0046] In one embodiment, the process of determining the current position of the user in the above method includes: determining the actual distance between the user coordinates and the base station coordinates through the user coordinates and the base station coordinates; when the actual distance is different from the signal propagation distance, correcting the user position according to the actual distance and the signal propagation distance to obtain the current position of the user; the reason is: (if the actual distance is less than the propagation distance, the user position may be underestimated; if the actual distance is greater than the propagation distance, the user position may be overestimated, both of which need to be corrected).

[0047] Preferably, the calculation formula of the actual distance is:

[0048]

[0049] where x user ,y user , z user is the user coordinate, x sat ,y sat , z sat is the base station coordinate.

[0050] Furthermore, the calculation formula for the above signal propagation distance d is: d=v*t, where v represents the signal propagation speed (speed of light, v=3000000000m / s), and t represents the receiving time of the base station coordinates, and t is obtained by subtracting the sending time from the receiving time of the base station coordinates.

[0051] Furthermore, the calculation formula of the above user's current location newdis is:

[0052] newdis=(x user +(x sat -x user )*a,y user +(y sat -y user)*a,z user +(z sat -z user )*a)a=d / distance.

[0053] It can be concluded that the present invention corrects the user's current position in the above manner, thereby improving the subsequent clocking-in accuracy.

[0054] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application further provides a clock-in system for a store patrol assistant, which is used to implement the method mentioned in the first aspect.

[0055] Specifically, the system includes a data preset module, a data collection module and a data use module arranged on the terminal, and also includes a data processing module arranged on the cloud.

[0056] The data preset module is used to set the punch-in distance in the above method.

[0057] See also Figure 2 As shown, the workflow of the remaining modules includes:

[0058] The data acquisition module is used to: receive satellite signals to obtain the user coordinates and base station coordinates in the above method, and transmit the user coordinates and base station coordinates to the user processing module of the cloud server in the cloud;

[0059] The data processing module is used to: execute the above-mentioned determination process of the user's current position according to the user coordinates and the base station coordinates, obtain the user's current position and send it to the data use module;

[0060] The data usage module is used to: execute the process in the above method of confirming that the user has successfully checked in when the distance between the user's current location and the check-in location is within the check-in distance.
