[0002] As online ordering of goods becomes more and more popular among the public, the order delivery process becomes particularly important. In the order delivery process, picking up the goods ordered by the ordering user becomes an important part of the delivery process.

[0003] When delivery riders pick up goods, especially when picking up goods in some large shopping malls, delivery riders are actually in an indoor environment. At this time, if the delivery terminal uses GPS (Global Positioning System) navigation to navigate to the merchant to pick up the goods, due to the weak GPS signal in the indoor environment, it is impossible to accurately navigate to the merchant to pick up the goods; in the existing indoor navigation method, delivery riders can also find the merchant to pick up the goods by taking photos of the merchant in advance, but once the merchant moves, the merchant's address will change, which will still affect the efficiency of the delivery rider in finding the merchant to pick up the goods. Therefore, when delivery riders pick up goods indoors, how to provide a way to find merchants for picking up goods to improve the delivery rider's search efficiency has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.

[0033] Many specific details are described in the following description to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited to the specific implementation disclosed below.

[0034] The present application provides an indoor navigation method, an information processing method, an indoor navigation device, an information processing device, an electronic device, and a computer storage medium. The indoor navigation method, the information processing method, the indoor navigation device, the information processing device, the electronic device, and the computer storage medium are respectively introduced through specific embodiments. In order to more clearly demonstrate the indoor navigation method provided by the embodiment of the present application, the application scenario of the indoor navigation method provided by the embodiment of the present application is first introduced.

[0035] The indoor navigation method of the present application can be used in various indoor navigation scenarios. Taking the indoor pickup of a delivery rider during the delivery order process as an example, it is necessary to use the target terminal application in the delivery terminal to navigate the delivery rider to the merchant to be picked up, so that the delivery rider can pick up the goods. For example, when delivery rider 1 needs to go to merchant B in shopping mall A to pick up goods, the indoor navigation method of the present application can pre-acquire the indoor map of shopping mall A. The indoor map of shopping mall A is constructed based on the merchant geographic location information of each merchant in shopping mall A. Some merchants are equipped with merchant terminals, and the merchant terminals can send signals indicating the geographic location information of the merchants to which they belong, that is, the merchant terminals can send signals of the merchant locations of the merchants to which they belong on the indoor map; during the movement of delivery rider 1 in shopping mall A, based on the candidate signal strength information of each candidate merchant terminal received by the target terminal application in the delivery terminal of delivery rider 1, the real-time location of delivery rider 1 on the indoor map can be determined; thereafter, based on the real-time location of delivery rider 1, the location of merchant B on the indoor map and the indoor map, initial target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide delivery rider 1 to merchant B.

[0036] Specifically, suppose that shopping mall A has 55 merchants 1-55, among which 7 merchants, merchant 10, merchant 15, merchant 18, merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 43 and merchant 44, are equipped with merchant terminals. For the indoor map of shopping mall A, please refer to Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the first scenario of the indoor navigation method provided by this application. Figure 1 As shown, using Figure 1 The small circle logo shown indicates that a merchant terminal is set up or installed in the merchant. In the present application, the merchant terminal refers to a terminal device embedded with a wireless beacon, such as an order receiving device, a meal delivery device, a printer terminal device, etc., which can all be embedded with a wireless beacon. In fact, any terminal device installed in a merchant can be embedded with a wireless beacon and then used as a wireless beacon device. The wireless beacon device is mainly a device that connects signals with other devices based on a wireless communication connection method to detect or locate other devices. In an embodiment of the present application, the wireless communication connection method includes at least one of the following: a Bluetooth communication connection method, a wireless local area network (WLAN) communication connection method, and a mobile communication connection method.

[0037] In this embodiment, the merchant terminal is a wireless beacon device, and the communication connection between the merchant terminal and other devices is mainly introduced by taking the Bluetooth communication connection method as an example. When the delivery rider 1 is within the acceptable range of the merchant terminal transmission signal (the merchant terminal can transmit a signal indicating the merchant location of the merchant on the indoor map), the target terminal application installed on the delivery terminal held by the delivery rider 1 can connect to the merchant terminal through Bluetooth to receive the signal transmitted by the merchant terminal. The target terminal application is a delivery application installed on the delivery terminal, in which the delivery rider can perform operations such as receiving orders and delivering orders.

[0038] Specifically, when delivery rider 1 needs to go to merchant B to pick up goods, assuming that merchant B is merchant 15 in shopping mall A, Figure 1 It can be seen that when delivery rider 1 enters the west gate of shopping mall A, the indoor navigation method provided by this application needs to be used to navigate delivery rider 1 to merchant 15. Since the signal transmitted by each merchant terminal can only be received within a certain range, when delivery rider 1 enters shopping mall A from the west gate, only the signals transmitted by the merchant terminals of merchants near the west gate can be received by the target terminal application.

[0039] Specifically, see Figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of the second scenario of the indoor navigation method provided by this application. When the delivery rider 1 is near the west gate, Figure 1It can be seen that: Merchant 23, Merchant 31, Merchant 43 and Merchant 44 are equipped with merchant terminals and are located near the west gate. Therefore, the signals transmitted by the merchant terminals installed by Merchant 23, Merchant 31, Merchant 43 and Merchant 44 can be received by the target terminal application. Figure 2 , which corresponds to a schematic diagram of the signals emitted by each candidate merchant terminal that the target terminal application can receive when the delivery rider 1 is located near the west gate. In this example, the order receiving treasure is taken as an example of the merchant terminal. The order receiving treasure is mainly a printer for merchants to use, which integrates the functions of order receiving, order printing and order shipping. Merchants can use the order receiving treasure to print the order after receiving the order. The printout is the order voucher. The order voucher is set with the shipping code information to be scanned. When the merchant has finished preparing the goods, he can hold the order voucher and align the shipping code information with the window of the order receiving treasure to complete the scanning and shipping, which makes it easier for the ordering platform to summon the delivery rider to pick up the goods.

[0040] When the delivery rider 1 is walking and moving in the shopping mall A, the candidate merchant terminals connected to the target terminal application will change, and the candidate signal strength information received from each candidate merchant terminal will also change.

[0041] For example, when delivery rider 1 enters from the west gate and moves from west to east to the vicinity of merchant 33, the target terminal application can receive signals transmitted by the merchant terminals of merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 43 and merchant 44. The candidate merchant terminals are the merchant terminals of merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 43 and merchant 44. Of course, merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 43 and merchant 44 can refer to candidate merchants. As delivery rider 1 gradually approaches merchant 33, the signal strength transmitted by the merchant terminal of merchant 31 continues to increase.

[0042] When delivery rider 1 moves to the vicinity of merchant 33, please refer to Figure 1 If the target terminal application continues to move downward (actually from north to south) to merchant 21, the target terminal application can receive signals transmitted by the merchant terminals of merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 10 and merchant 18, and each candidate merchant terminal becomes the merchant terminal of merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 10 and merchant 18. As delivery rider 1 continues to move and gradually approaches merchant 18, the signal strength transmitted by the merchant terminal of merchant 18 continues to increase.

[0043] During the movement of the delivery rider 1 in the shopping mall A, the target terminal application can initially receive signals transmitted by the merchant terminals of the four merchants, namely, merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 43 and merchant 44. Later, as the delivery rider 1 continues to move, the target terminal application can receive signals transmitted by the merchant terminals of the four merchants, namely, merchant 23, merchant 31, merchant 10 and merchant 18. At this time, it may no longer be possible to receive signals transmitted by the merchant terminals of the two merchants, namely, merchant 43 and merchant 44. During the movement of the delivery rider 1 in the shopping mall A, the real-time position of the delivery rider 1 on the indoor map changes in real time, and the real-time position can be determined by the various candidate signal strength information and the indoor map received by the target terminal application of the delivery rider 1 at each moment.

[0044] After determining the real-time location, based on the real-time location, the target location of the merchant 15 on the indoor map and the indoor map, an initial delivery path from the real-time location to the target location on the indoor map can be determined. Figure 3 , which is a schematic diagram of the third scenario of the indoor navigation method provided in this application.

[0045] exist Figure 3 In the figure, the current position (point P) of delivery rider 1 at the current time T1 is above merchants 33 and 34 (i.e., located in the north of merchants 33 and 34). Before the current time, delivery rider 1 has been moving eastward since entering from the west gate; Figure 3 The route between the location of delivery rider 1 (real-time location P at the current moment) and the location of merchant 15 is the initial delivery path at the current moment T1.

[0046] After obtaining the initial delivery path at the current moment, in order to facilitate the delivery rider 1 to navigate to the merchant 15 using the target terminal application of the delivery terminal, the initial delivery path is mapped to the navigation view of the target terminal application, and initial target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide the delivery rider 1 to the merchant 15.

[0047] In the present application, the reason why the initial delivery path is first mapped to the navigation view of the target terminal application and the initial target guidance information is generated is to facilitate the delivery rider to obtain the instruction information on how to walk by viewing the target terminal application. The initial target guidance information is to facilitate the delivery rider 1 to gradually navigate to the range where the target merchant terminal of the target merchant can receive the signal (target merchant terminal such as the merchant terminal of merchant 15) based on the signal strength information of each candidate merchant terminal received by the target terminal application in shopping mall A. After that, as the signal strength received from the merchant terminal of merchant 15 continues to increase, the delivery rider 1 is navigated to merchant 15. Alternatively, the initial target guidance information can also be to facilitate the delivery rider 1 to gradually navigate to the range where the signal sent by the adjacent merchant terminal adjacent to the target merchant can be received (adjacent merchant terminals such as the merchant terminal of merchant 18) based on the signal strength information of each candidate merchant terminal received by the target terminal application in shopping mall A. After that, as the signal strength received from the merchant terminal of merchant 18 continues to increase, the delivery rider 1 is navigated to merchant 15.

[0048] In short, after using the initial target guidance information to guide the delivery rider to the first target range where the signal from the target merchant terminal of the target merchant can be received or the second target range where the signal from the adjacent merchant terminal of the adjacent merchant can be received, the second target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide the target delivery capacity to the target merchant. The second target guidance information is generated in a manner similar to the initial target guidance information, and the second target guidance information is generated based on the second delivery path mapping.

[0049] An example of directing a delivery rider to the first target range is as follows: For example, please refer to Figure 3 , assuming that when the delivery rider 1 moves along the path shown to the position between merchant 18 and merchant 30 (assuming point M), the target terminal application (i.e., the delivery application) receives the signal sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 15 for the first time, then when the delivery rider 1 is at point M between merchant 18 and merchant 30, a second target guidance information can be generated for the delivery rider 1 to guide the delivery rider 1 from point M to merchant 15 in the target terminal application. That is: the delivery rider 1 is continuously guided to the range where the signal sent by the target merchant terminal (i.e., the merchant terminal of merchant 15) can be received through the initial target guidance information, and then the delivery rider 1 is guided from point M to the target merchant through the second target guidance information. The second target guidance information is guidance information obtained based on the continuously increasing signal strength of the target merchant terminal received by the target terminal application. In this case, the guidance information of delivery rider 1 from point P to merchant 15 is the initial target guidance information, the path from point M to merchant 15 is the second delivery path, and the guidance information from point M to merchant 15 is the second target guidance information.

[0050] Specifically, when the initial delivery path is obtained, based on the real-time location, the target location of the merchant 15 on the indoor map and the indoor map, the initial delivery path from the real-time location to the target location on the indoor map can be determined.

[0051] After determining the initial delivery path, and based on the initial target guidance information generated by the initial delivery path, the delivery rider 1 is guided to the first target range. The first target range is the area where the target terminal application can receive the signal emitted by the merchant terminal of merchant 15. In this case, merchant 15 is equipped with a merchant terminal, and the merchant terminal installed by merchant 15 is used as the first target merchant terminal; according to the first position of the target delivery capacity when entering the first target range (the position of the delivery rider is point M at this time), the first signal strength information emitted by the first target merchant terminal (the first target merchant terminal can transmit the first signal strength information of the position of merchant 15 on the indoor map), the target merchant position and the indoor map, the second target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant.

[0052] An example of directing the delivery rider to the second target range is as follows: if the merchant 15 has not installed or set up a merchant terminal, the initial target guidance information is used to direct the target delivery capacity to the second target range. The second target range is the area in which the target terminal application can receive the signal sent by the second target merchant terminal. The second target merchant terminal is a merchant terminal set in an adjacent merchant of the target merchant. In this case, it is necessary to determine the adjacent merchant adjacent to the target merchant and use the merchant terminal of the adjacent merchant as the second target merchant terminal; for example, the adjacent merchant can refer to merchant 18, and the second target merchant terminal is the merchant terminal of merchant 18. Afterwards, according to the second position when the target delivery capacity enters the second target range (at this time, the delivery rider 1 is at point Q), the second signal strength information sent by the second target merchant terminal (such as the second target merchant terminal can transmit the second signal strength information of the position of merchant 18 on the indoor map), the target merchant position and the indoor map, the second target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to the target merchant in the target terminal application is generated.

[0053] For example, when delivery rider 1 is at point P, delivery rider 1 can be guided to the vicinity of the location of merchant 18 based on the initial target guidance information (the second target range is the area where the target terminal application can receive the signal sent by the second target merchant terminal); when delivery rider 1 is around merchant 18, the target terminal application can receive the signal sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 18. Please refer to Figure 3, assuming that when the delivery rider 1 moves to point Q along the path shown, the target terminal application receives the signal sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 18 for the first time, then when the delivery rider 1 is at point Q, the second target guidance information for guiding the delivery rider 1 to merchant 15 in the target terminal application is generated for the delivery rider 1. In this case, the second target guidance information actually first guides the delivery rider 1 to move from point Q to the location of merchant 18. Since merchant 18 and merchant 15 are adjacent merchants, when the delivery rider 1 moves to the location of merchant 18, it is easy to find the location of merchant 15. In this case, before the delivery rider 1 is guided to the location of merchant 15 by the second target guidance information, the second target guidance information can be generated based on the increasing signal strength sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 18 received by the target terminal application. In this case, the guidance information of delivery rider 1 from point P to merchant 15 is the initial target guidance information, the path from point Q to merchant 15 is the second delivery path, and the guidance information from point Q to merchant 15 is the second target guidance information.

[0054] In fact, in the present application, no matter which situation, after the delivery rider enters a target range (such as the first target range or the second target range), the remaining guidance information of the initial target guidance information is further refined to obtain the second target guidance information.

Therefore, as the destination to be navigated, the target merchant is first determined. For the target merchant, please refer to merchant 15 in the scenario embodiment.

[0062] Step S402: Determine the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map according to the candidate signal strength information sent by each candidate merchant terminal received in real time by the target terminal application during the target delivery capacity moves indoors in the target business district.

[0063] In this embodiment, the target terminal application can establish a communication connection with each candidate merchant terminal through a preset communication method; the target terminal application is a delivery application installed on the delivery terminal used by the target delivery capacity; the indoor map is an electronic map provided by the server that contains the merchant locations of each merchant in the target business district, and the merchant logo of each merchant is set on the indoor map. Each merchant terminal set in each merchant uses a preset communication method to send a signal indicating the merchant location of the merchant on the indoor map, and the target merchant is in the target business district.

[0064] In this embodiment, the preset communication method may be Bluetooth.

[0065] Indoor maps such as Figure 1 The electronic map shown shows the various merchants in shopping mall A and which merchants have merchant terminals. In this indoor map, the geographical location information of each merchant is known, and the indoor map is also constructed based on the geographical location information of each merchant. For example, Figure 1 The indoor map shown is constructed based on the geographic location information of merchants 1 to 55.

[0066] Specifically, the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map is determined based on the candidate signal strength information emitted by each candidate merchant terminal and received in real time by the target terminal application during the indoor movement of the target delivery capacity in the target business district. This may mean: first, based on the candidate signal strength information, the relative position between the target delivery capacity and each candidate merchant corresponding to each candidate merchant terminal is determined; then, based on the candidate position and relative position of each candidate merchant on the indoor map, the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map is determined.

[0067] For example, take delivery rider 1 as the target delivery capacity. When delivery rider 1 is in Figure 3The delivery rider is actually at point P when the delivery rider is between the four merchants 33, 34, 43 and 44 shown in the figure. However, before the location of the delivery rider 1 is determined, it is impossible to know that the delivery rider 1 is at point P. In order to determine the real-time location of the delivery rider 1, the signal strength information sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 23, the merchant terminal of merchant 31, the merchant terminal of merchant 43 and the merchant terminal of merchant 44 received by the target terminal application can be determined.

[0068] Each candidate signal strength information received by the target terminal application can reflect the distance between the target delivery capacity and each candidate merchant. Based on the multiple signal strength information sent by multiple candidate merchant terminals received by the target terminal application, the relative position between the target delivery capacity and each candidate merchant can be determined. Each candidate signal strength information of each candidate merchant terminal received by the target terminal application can be represented by an RSSI value, RSSI, that is, Received Signal Strength Indication, that is, received signal strength. Based on the multiple signal strength information sent by multiple candidate merchant terminals received by the target terminal application, the relative position between the target delivery capacity and each candidate merchant can be determined.

[0069] In fact, in this embodiment, as long as the target terminal application receives signals from two or more merchant terminals, the real-time position of the delivery rider on the indoor map can be determined based on the signal strength information received from the two or more merchant terminals. The principle of determining the real-time position of the delivery rider on the indoor map based on the signal strength information received from two or more merchant terminals by the target terminal application is as follows: for each received signal strength information sent by the merchant terminal, it is possible to determine how far the delivery rider is from each merchant on the indoor map in a circular area (the circular area is an example of the above relative position), then the intersection of the two circular areas at the merchant is the real-time position of the delivery rider on the indoor map.

[0070] Specifically, before determining the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map, it is also necessary to predetermine the candidate positions of each candidate merchant on the indoor map as a way to determine the candidate positions of each candidate merchant on the indoor map: first, determine the candidate merchant identification of each candidate merchant; then, based on the indoor map and the candidate merchant identification, determine the candidate position of each candidate merchant on the indoor map. Since the indoor map is constructed based on the geographic location information of each merchant, and the merchant identification of each merchant is set on the indoor map, after knowing the candidate merchant identification, the geographic location information of each candidate merchant can be determined, that is, the candidate position of each candidate merchant on the indoor map can be determined. For example: when the delivery rider 1 is at point P, the candidate merchant terminal can be the merchant terminal of merchant 23, the merchant terminal of merchant 31, the merchant terminal of merchant 43, and the merchant terminal of merchant 44. At this time, it is sufficient to determine the candidate positions of merchants 23, merchants 31, merchants 43, and merchants 44 on the indoor map. The identifications of merchants and merchant terminals may be consistent, for example, the identifications of merchant 23 and merchant 23's merchant terminal are both represented by 23; the signal sent by the candidate merchant terminal includes its identification, so the candidate merchant identification can be determined based on the received candidate signal strength information.

[0071] Step S403: generating initial target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application according to the real-time location, the target merchant location on the indoor map and the indoor map.

[0072] In this embodiment, based on the real-time location, the target merchant location on the indoor map and the indoor map, initial target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant. This may mean: first, based on the real-time location, the target merchant location and the indoor map, an initial delivery path from the real-time location to the target merchant location on the indoor map is determined; then, the initial delivery path is mapped to the navigation view of the target terminal application, and initial target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant.

[0073] In fact, in the actual navigation of the target terminal application for delivery riders, the indoor map navigation perspective (such as Figure 3 There is a certain correspondence between the initial delivery path and the navigation perspective of the target terminal application (the navigation prompt information displayed on the delivery rider's target terminal application, which may be guidance information). Based on this correspondence, the initial delivery path can be mapped to the navigation view of the target terminal application, thereby generating the initial target guidance information.

[0074] In this application, an initial delivery path from the real-time location to the target merchant location is pre-generated on the indoor map, and then the initial delivery path is mapped to the navigation view of the target terminal application based on the above correspondence to generate initial target guidance information. The initial target guidance information and the subsequent second target guidance information refer to information that guides the delivery rider on how to walk in the target terminal application. The guidance information may include arrow information and may also include walking instruction information, such as: Please continue walking forward for 20 meters, then turn left and continue walking for 10 meters. Both the initial target guidance information and the second target guidance information are guidance information displayed in the target terminal application to facilitate guidance on how the target delivery capacity should move to the location of the target merchant.

[0075] In this embodiment, it is also necessary to determine the target merchant identifier of the target merchant; based on the indoor map and the target merchant identifier, the target merchant position of the target merchant on the indoor map is determined.

[0076] After the target merchant location is determined, since the real-time location has been determined in step S402, an initial delivery path from the real-time location to the target merchant location on the indoor map can be determined based on the real-time location, the target merchant location and the indoor map.

[0077] After the initial delivery path is determined, it is first determined whether the target merchant has a merchant terminal installed; if so, the merchant terminal of the target merchant is determined, and the merchant terminal of the target merchant is used as the first target merchant terminal.

[0078] In the case where the target merchant has installed a merchant terminal, the initial target guidance information is used to guide the target delivery capacity to a first target range, where the first target range is an area where the target terminal application can receive a signal sent by the first target merchant terminal.

[0079] After guiding the target delivery capacity to the first target range based on the initial target guidance information, it also includes: in response to detecting that a signal emitted by the first target merchant terminal is received, obtaining first signal strength information received from the first target merchant terminal; based on the first signal strength information, the first position of the target delivery capacity when entering the first target range, the target merchant location and the indoor map, generating second target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application.

[0080] After the target delivery capacity is directed to the first target range based on the initial target guidance information (e.g., directing delivery rider 1 to Figure 3At point M shown in the figure, the target terminal application begins to receive the signal sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 15, that is, enters the first target range), in response to detecting the reception of the signal sent by the first target merchant terminal, obtain the first signal strength information received from the first target merchant terminal; based on the first signal strength information, the first position when the target delivery capacity enters the first target range, the target merchant position and the indoor map, generate the second target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application. That is, the second target guidance information is the guidance information generated as the signal received from the merchant terminal of merchant 15 continues to increase.

[0081] After the initial delivery path is determined, if it is determined that the target merchant has not installed or is not provided with a merchant terminal, an adjacent merchant adjacent to the target merchant is determined, and the merchant terminal of the adjacent merchant is used as the second target merchant terminal.

[0082] In the case where the target merchant does not have a merchant terminal installed, the initial target guidance information is used to guide the target delivery capacity to the second target range. The second target range is the area where the target terminal application can receive the signal sent by the second target merchant terminal. The second target merchant terminal is a merchant terminal installed in an adjacent merchant of the target merchant.

[0083] After the target delivery capacity is directed to the second target range based on the initial target guidance information (e.g., directing delivery rider 1 to Figure 3 At point Q shown in the figure, the target terminal application starts to receive signals sent by the merchant terminal of merchant 18, that is, entering the second target range), and also includes: in response to detecting that a signal sent by the second target merchant terminal is received, obtaining second signal strength information received from the second target merchant terminal; based on the second signal strength information, the second position of the target delivery capacity when entering the second target range, the target merchant position and the indoor map, generating second target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application.

[0084] The second target guidance information is mapped based on the second delivery path. For examples of the second delivery path and the second target guidance information, please refer to the above scenario examples, which will not be repeated here.

[0085] In this embodiment, the method further includes: determining whether a merchant terminal is installed in the target merchant; if not, determining an adjacent merchant adjacent to the target merchant, and using the merchant terminal installed in the adjacent merchant as the second target merchant terminal.

[0086] As a way to determine the neighboring merchants adjacent to the target merchant: based on the indoor map and the location of the target merchant, determine the neighboring merchants adjacent to the target merchant.

[0087] The target merchant location may be target geographic location information. After obtaining the target geographic location information of the target merchant, the neighboring merchants adjacent to the target merchant may be determined based on the indoor map and the target geographic location information. In fact, the geographic location information of the neighboring merchants is relatively close to the target geographic location information of the target merchant, and the neighboring merchants adjacent to the target merchant may be determined from the merchants with merchant terminals in the target business district.

[0088] In this embodiment, it also includes: sending a first request message to the server for requesting to obtain an indoor map, so that the server determines the indoor map of the target business district in the candidate indoor map in response to the first request message; obtaining the indoor map of the target business district provided by the server in response to the first request message. In fact, the scope of the indoor map created by the server (i.e., the candidate indoor map) is very large, not only including the indoor map of shopping mall A, but also including indoor maps of other shopping malls or other indoor buildings, and even indoor maps of various cities. In order to facilitate the distribution terminal to improve the processing efficiency of indoor navigation, it is sufficient to obtain the indoor map of the target business district to which the target merchant belongs from the server.

[0089] In this embodiment, while mapping the initial delivery path to the navigation view of the target terminal application and generating the initial target guidance information, the merchants corresponding to the location of the target delivery capacity are rendered in real time in the navigation view. By rendering the merchants around the delivery rider's location, it is easier for the delivery rider to perceive which merchants are near his location. For example, when delivery rider 1 is at point P, merchants 33, 34, 43, and 44 are rendered in the navigation view. Of course, it is understandable that as the delivery rider moves in real time, the merchants and indoor environment around his location will also be rendered in real time in the navigation view.

[0090] Of course, it is understandable that when the second target guidance information is generated and rendered in the navigation view, the businesses and indoor environment around the delivery rider's location are simultaneously rendered in real time.

[0091] The present application provides an indoor navigation method, which is applied to a delivery terminal installed with a target terminal application used by a target delivery transport capacity, and the method includes: determining a target merchant to be picked up by the target delivery transport capacity; determining the real-time position of the target delivery transport capacity on an indoor map according to each candidate signal strength information emitted by each candidate merchant terminal received in real time by the target terminal application during the indoor movement of the target delivery transport capacity in the target business district; the target terminal application and each candidate merchant terminal can establish a communication connection through a preset communication method; the indoor map is an electronic map provided by a server including the merchant locations of each merchant in the target business district; based on the real-time position, the target merchant location on the indoor map and the indoor map, generating initial target guidance information for guiding the target delivery transport capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application. Because in this method, the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map can be determined based on the electronic map of the merchant locations of each merchant in the target business district and each candidate signal strength information, and then based on the real-time position, the target merchant location on the indoor map and the indoor map, the initial target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application is generated. In the whole process, the target delivery capacity is actually navigated to the target merchant based on the signal strength information emitted by each merchant terminal in the target business district that can be received by the target terminal application, the created indoor map, the real-time position, and the target merchant location. There is no need for the target delivery capacity to look at the photos taken of the merchant in advance to find the merchant, and the navigation signal will not be too weak, thereby improving the efficiency of the target delivery capacity in finding the target merchant.

[0092] Second embodiment

[0093] Corresponding to the indoor navigation method provided in the first embodiment of the present application, the second embodiment of the present application further provides an information processing method.

[0100] In this embodiment, an indoor map of the target business district is provided to the delivery terminal, so that after the delivery terminal determines the target merchant to be picked up by the target delivery capacity, it determines the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map based on the candidate signal strength information emitted by each candidate merchant terminal and received in real time by the target terminal application during the indoor movement of the target delivery capacity in the target business district; based on the real-time position, the target merchant position on the indoor map and the indoor map, initial target guidance information is generated in the target terminal application to guide the target delivery capacity to the target merchant; wherein the target terminal application and each candidate merchant terminal can establish a communication connection through a preset communication method.

In the method, after obtaining a first request message, the server responds to the first request message, determines the indoor map of a target business district in a candidate indoor map, and provides the indoor map of the target business district to a delivery terminal, so that after determining the target merchant to be picked up by the target delivery capacity, the delivery terminal determines the real-time position of the target delivery capacity on the indoor map according to each candidate signal strength information emitted by each candidate merchant terminal received in real time by the target terminal application during the indoor movement of the target delivery capacity in the target business district; generates initial target guidance information for guiding the target delivery capacity to reach the target merchant in the target terminal application according to the real-time position, the target merchant position on the indoor map and the indoor map. During the whole process, the delivery terminal actually navigates the target delivery capacity to the target merchant based on the signal strength information emitted by each merchant terminal in the target business district that can be received by the target terminal application, the created indoor map, the real-time position, and the target merchant position. The target delivery capacity does not need to check the photos taken of the merchant in advance to find the merchant, and the navigation signal will not be too weak, thereby improving the efficiency of the target delivery capacity in finding the target merchant.
