[0027] (First embodiment) Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, embodiments of the method, program, computer-readable storage medium, computer device, and system of the present invention will be described. Note that the following embodiments do not limit the invention according to the claims, and not all combinations of features described in the embodiments are necessarily essential to the invention. Two or more of the multiple features described in the embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. Furthermore, the same reference numerals are used for the same or similar components, and redundant explanations will be omitted.

[0028] 1 is a diagram showing a usage scene of a terminal device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The terminal device 10 is an example of a computer.

[0029] FIG. 1 shows a situation in which user U1 is interested in using land in forest M. Forest M is located remotely from user U1. User U2 belongs to business operator G, which owns or manages forest M. User U2 encourages user U1 to use land in forest M by displaying land information, which is information about the land in forest M, on terminal device 10. Terminal device 10 may display photographed images of the land in forest M together with the land information. The photographed images of the land may be taken remotely using drone D. Drone D and terminal device 10 may be connected via a network NW. Drone D may be equipped with a temperature sensor, a camera, a wind speed sensor, and a fan.

[0030] The use of land includes the provision of services by business operator G on one or more parcels of land in forest M. The use of land also includes the provision of products produced or manufactured on one or more parcels of land in forest M. The services and products are provided by business operator G to which user U2 belongs. The provision of services or products by business operator G may or may not involve the provision of compensation from user U1 to business operator G.

[0031] 2 is a diagram showing an example of land information in an embodiment of the present invention. The land information indicates the location of one or more pieces of land and the type of services provided by business operator G for each of the one or more pieces of land. The one or more pieces of land may be located in forest M, or in any of hilly, mountainous, and valley areas.

[0032] In Figure 2, the land information shows four pieces of land that are being provided by business operator G. For each piece of land, the land information shows a photograph of the land, information indicating the location or position of the land, and the type of service (services) that business operator G will provide.

[0033] For example, for the land in the column with identification number "1," the location (place) is expressed as an address of C, City B, Prefecture A. For this land, it is indicated that business operator G provides scattering of ashes as a service.

[0034] For the land in the column with identification number "2," the location is expressed as an address, F, E Village, D Prefecture. It is indicated that for this land, business operator G provides a drone flight environment as a service. It is also indicated that, as an ancillary service to the service of providing a drone flight environment, business operator G will provide a sales service for woodworking products produced on the land indicated by the address, L, H Town, G Prefecture. This ancillary service may be obtained by the user providing additional compensation to business operator G for the main service of providing a drone flight environment, or there may be no additional compensation. The land indicated by the address, F, E Village, D Prefecture is also land owned or managed by business operator G.

[0035] The land in the column with identification number "3" is located at an address in H Village, G Prefecture. It indicates that for this land, business operator G will provide, as a service, carbon dioxide (CO2) emission credits equivalent to the amount of CO2 absorbed by the forest on this land. CO2 emission credits are used in CO2 emissions trading. CO2 emissions trading allocates greenhouse gas emission allowances to individual companies and countries. Each company or country that receives such an allowance must limit the amount of CO2 it emits through its activities so as not to exceed the limit set by that allowance. Companies or businesses that are likely to exceed their allocated emissions can trade allowances with other companies or businesses. The land indicated by the address in H Town, G Prefecture, is also owned or managed by business operator G.

[0036] The image shows that the land in the identification number "3" column includes forests. Therefore, based on the area of ​​the land and the number and growth of trees contained on the land, operator G can estimate the amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by the forest, and set and generate CO2 emission credits for the corresponding amount of CO2 absorbed.

[0037] Figure 2 shows that in addition to the service of providing CO2 emission rights, a service can also be received that provides the right to camp on land in N Town P, which is the neighboring town of the land represented by the address L, H Town, G Prefecture.

[0038] For the land in the column with identification number "4," the location is expressed as an address of P, Town N, Prefecture G. For this land, it is indicated that business operator G provides, as a service, the right to purchase the right to camp on this land. The land expressed as an address of P, Town N, Prefecture G is also land owned or managed by business operator G.

[0039] These lands may be located away from the areas where most people live, and may be located, for example, in at least one of forest areas, hilly areas, mountainous areas, rivers, lakes, marshes, and valley areas.

[0040] Note that land information regarding land managed or owned by business operator G may be handled in a manner different from that shown in Figure 2. For example, after presenting user U1 with a wide range of land areas, such as C, City B in Prefecture A, F, Village E in Prefecture D, L, Town H in Prefecture G, and P, Town N in Prefecture G, user U2 may propose to user U1 the right to receive the provision or sale of at least one of the following services in at least one of these four areas: scattering of ashes, provision of a drone flight environment, sale of woodwork products, CO2 emission rights, and camping.

[0041] Land may be expressed as a single parcel of land with a single ownership interest, or as multiple parcels of land. The location of land may be expressed by at least one of the following: an area identified by a parcel number (parcel number area), one or more parcel numbers of a parcel of land, a place, a region, an area, a latitude, and a longitude.

[0042] Also, if the land in City C, B Prefecture, A is approximately 10 hectares in size, business operator G may first sell user U1 the right to receive the provision of services or the sale of products on any land included in the land in City C, B Prefecture, A, and then user U1 or business operator G may later specify a second land where the service can actually be provided or the product can be sold, or it may be an arbitrary area predetermined by business operator G. For example, this second land may be smaller in area than City C, B Prefecture, A, and may be included in the land in City C, B Prefecture, A.

[0043] For example, the sooner user U1 confirms the second land, the lower the price the business operator G may set for the right to receive the provision of services or the sale of goods on the second land. Alternatively, the sooner user U1 confirms the second land, the more monetary consideration the business operator G may return to user U1. This allows the business operator G to decide on the target land according to its convenience, or it is expected that business operator G will be able to make sales earlier.

[0044] Furthermore, the sooner the user U1 decides on the second land, the more the business operator G may set a higher price for the right to receive the provision of services or the sale of goods on the second land. This is expected to have the advantage that the user U1 can quickly decide on the desired land, for example, in a case where there is a possibility of competition for land among multiple customers, and it is also expected to increase sales for the business operator G.

[0045] Furthermore, the land on which the service is provided or the product is sold may be larger, for example, approximately 24,000 hectares. For example, if the land area of ​​Village E, Prefecture D, F is approximately 24,000 hectares, business operator G may first sell user U1 the right to receive the service or product on any land included in the land area of ​​Village E, Prefecture D, F, and then user U1 or business operator G may later identify a third piece of land on which the service or product will actually be provided or sold. This third piece of land may be smaller in area than Village E, Prefecture D, F, and may be included in the land area of ​​Village E, Prefecture D.

[0046] In this case, the sooner the user U1 confirms the third land, the lower the price the business operator G may set for the right to receive the provision of services or the sale of goods on the third land. Alternatively, the sooner the user U1 confirms the third land, the more monetary consideration the business operator G may return to the user U1.

[0047] Furthermore, the sooner the user U1 confirms the second land, the more the business operator G may set a higher price for the right to receive the provision of services or the sale of products on the second land.

[0048] The above services are merely examples and are not limiting. A service provided on land owned or managed by business operator G may also be the right to experience virtual reality or augmented reality, which simulates an experience on that land. Virtual reality (VR) may, for example, allow a user to simulate the temperature, sound, and wind of the land by wearing a VR headset. The temperature and sound may be acquired via a network NW by flying a drone D equipped with a temperature sensor and a microphone over the land.

[0049] A VR headset may acquire information indicating wind strength over a certain area via a network NW by flying a drone D equipped with a wind sensor over the area. Based on the information indicating wind strength, the VR headset may generate wind with the wind strength using a fan and blow the wind on the user wearing the VR headset. Augmented reality (AR) may, for example, display an image of a forested area on a mobile device of a user U1, allowing the user U1 to experience a virtual stroll through the area.

[0050] FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of the functional configuration of the terminal device 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention. The terminal device 10 includes an acquisition unit 111, a reception unit 112, a processing unit 12, a storage unit 13, a provision unit 141, an output unit 142, and a communication unit 15.

[0051] The acquisition unit 111 acquires information and data from the outside. The reception unit 112 receives operations and information input from a user of the terminal device 10. The processing unit 12 processes and processes the information and data acquired from the outside. The processing unit 12 reads and executes commands from the storage unit 13. The processing unit 12 may also execute commands stored inside the processing unit 12.

[0052] The storage unit 13 stores information, data, and commands acquired from outside, and information and data processed and manipulated by the processing unit 12. The providing unit 141 provides access to information and data to a user of the terminal device 10. The output unit 142 outputs information and data to the outside. The communication unit 15 transmits and receives information and data to and from external devices.

[0053] FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of processing executed by the terminal device 10 in the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0054] In step S100, the acquisition unit 111 acquires land information for one or more parcels of land. An example of the land information is as shown in FIG. 2. Instead of the operation of the acquisition unit 111, the reception unit 112 may receive input of land information for one or more parcels of land. The land information indicates the location or place of each of the one or more parcels of land and the type of service provided by the business operator G for each of the one or more parcels of land.

[0055] Explaining this with reference to the example of Fig. 2, the acquisition unit 111 acquires the information shown in Fig. 2. The reception unit 112 receives input of the information shown in Fig. 2. The "one or more pieces of land" refer to the four pieces of land shown in columns of identification numbers "1" to "4" in Fig. 2.

[0056] In step S101, the storage unit 13 stores land information. To explain this with reference to the example of Fig. 2, the storage unit 13 stores the information shown in Fig. 2.

[0057] In step S102, the providing unit 141 provides the user U1 with access to the land information. "Providing access to the land information" may mean that the user U1 can recognize and acquire the land information. Instead of the providing unit 141, the output unit 142 may output the land information.

[0058] Explaining this with reference to the example of FIG. 2, the process of step S102 allows the user U1 to recognize and obtain information about four pieces of land for which the business operator G can provide services.

[0059] In step S103, in response to the providing unit 141 providing access to the land information, the receiving unit 112 receives input of request information from user U1. The request information is information that user U1 requests from business operator G to provide services for at least a first piece of land among one or more pieces of land. The request information indicates the location of the first piece of land and a desired service type, which is the type of service that user U1 wants business operator G to provide for the first piece of land. The request information may be input by user U1, or may be input by user U2 on behalf of user U1 based on instructions from user U1.

[0060] Referring to the example of FIG. 2, the "first land" is one of the four parcels of land shown in columns "1" to "4" in FIG. 2, and is the land for which user U1 requests service provision from business operator G. For example, the "first land" may be the parcel shown in column "2" in FIG. 2, i.e., the land located at the address "F, E Village, D Prefecture." The "desired service type" is "provision of a drone flight environment" shown in column "2" in FIG. 2 and the associated "purchase of woodwork products in L, H Town, G Prefecture." Therefore, the request information indicates that user U1 requests business operator G to provide a service of providing a drone flight environment on the land located at the address "F, E Village, D Prefecture." Note that the woodwork products may be manufactured in L, H Town, G Prefecture using trees felled in F, E Village, D Prefecture.

[0061] In step S104, the providing unit 141 provides access to rights information indicating a right to receive the provision of services from the business operator G on the first land based on the request information. Before step S104, the processing unit 12 may generate rights information based on the request information. The rights information indicates a right to receive the provision of services from the business operator G on the first land.

[0062] Referring to the example of Figure 2, the rights information indicates that user U1 has the right to receive a service that provides a drone flight environment on land located at an address of "F, E Village, D Prefecture."

[0063] In step S105, the output unit 142 outputs the rights information. The communication unit 15 may transmit the rights information to an external device.

[0064] Thereafter, based on the rights information, user U1 can directly or indirectly receive the desired service from business operator G. For example, user U1 can fly a drone on land located at an address of "F, E Village, D Prefecture."

[0065] This allows business operator G to make the land available for user U1 to use without user U1 actually visiting land that people do not necessarily visit frequently, thereby promoting the utilization of the land.

[0066] The "type of service provided by the business operator" included in the land information may be the provision of the right to collect mushrooms and other fungi that grow on the land, the provision of the right to collect nuts on the land, or the provision of the right to receive a discount on travel to the land.

[0067] In this way, by providing user U1 with the right to receive services and products associated with land owned or managed by business operator G, it is possible to promote the utilization of the land.

[0068] As described above, the method of the first embodiment is a method executed by the terminal device 10 of the operator G, and includes the steps of providing user U1 with access to land information for one or more pieces of land to be provided, receiving from user U1, in response to providing access to the land information, input of request information which is information by which user U1 requests the operator G to provide services for at least a first piece of land among the one or more pieces of land, providing user U1 with access to rights information which indicates the right to receive services from the operator G for the first piece of land based on the request information, and outputting the rights information, wherein the land information indicates the location of each of the one or more pieces of land and the type of services to be provided by the operator for each of the one or more pieces of land, and the request information indicates the location of the first piece of land and a desired service type which is the type of service that user U1 wishes the operator G to provide for the first piece of land.

[0069] This will promote the utilization of land owned or managed by business operator G.

[0070] The land information may further include information regarding the compensation for services provided by the business operator G for each of the one or more pieces of land. The information regarding the compensation for the services provided may indicate the compensation provided by the user U1 for the services provided by the business operator G for each of the one or more pieces of land, and the manner in which the business operator G receives compensation from the user U1 for each of the one or more pieces of land.

[0071] Referring to the example of FIG. 2, the columns "1" to "4" in FIG. 2 may further include a row indicating the fee required to receive the service provided by the business operator G, or may further include a row indicating the service period. For example, the column "1" may further include a row indicating "100,000 yen," and the column "2" may indicate that the user U1 performs volunteer activities on any land owned or managed by the business operator G a predetermined number of times or more. The predetermined number of times is determined arbitrarily by the business operator G, and may be 50 times or 100 times. For example, the business operator G may increase or decrease the predetermined number of times depending on the degree of environmental pollution of the land.

[0072] The request information may further include information indicating user U1's intention to receive services from the provider G on the first land. For example, the request information may indicate that user U1 has applied for a service provided by the provider G, or that user U1 has provided payment corresponding to the service provided by the provider G. The information indicating that user U1 has provided payment corresponding to the service provided by the provider G may indicate that user U1 has transferred "100,000 yen," which is the payment required to receive the service that user U1 requests from the provider G, or that a credit card payment for "100,000 yen" has been approved by a credit card issuing institution, or may indicate evidence that user U1 has performed the volunteer activity a predetermined number of times. The first land may be separately designated by the provider G after the request information is input, or may be designated by user U1. After the first land is determined, it may be changed by the provider G or by user U1. In this case, the receiving unit 112 may receive input of information requesting a change in the content of the rights information, and the processing unit 12 may change the content of the existing rights information based on the information instructing the change in the content of the rights information. The information instructing the change in the rights information includes at least one of changing the first land to a third land and changing the content of the service received from the provider G, where the third land is located in a different location from the first land. The receiving unit 112 may also receive input of information instructing the deletion of the rights information, and the processing unit 12 may delete the existing rights information based on the information instructing the deletion of the rights information. The information instructing the change in the content of the rights information and the information instructing the deletion of the rights information may be generated based on the intention of either the user U1 or the provider G.

[0073] The information indicating that user U1 has provided the payment corresponding to the service provided by business G does not have to be included in the request information, and may be information independent of the request information.

[0074] In addition, the desired service type includes at least one of scattering of ashes on the first land, the right to be provided with a drone flight environment on the first land, and the right to emit carbon dioxide on the first land.

[0075] For example, with regard to scattering ashes, if the deceased relative or friend of user U1 was fond of mountain climbing, the ashes can be scattered in a forest that is part of the mountain the deceased loved to visit, which is expected to ease the grief of the bereaved family or friends and allow them to remember the deceased in a way that is in keeping with the deceased's personal style. With regard to providing a drone flight environment, drone flight practice can be conducted in a sparsely populated forest, allowing user U1 to safely practice flying their drone. With regard to carbon dioxide emission rights, it is expected that the CO2 absorption capacity of forests owned or managed by business operator G can be utilized for business purposes. These measures can promote the use of land owned or managed by business operator G.

[0076] The rights information may also indicate at least one of a right to receive the transfer of goods associated with the first land, a right to experience virtual reality or augmented reality that simulates an experience on the first land, and a right to receive the provision of services or the transfer of goods on a second land, where the second land is associated with the first land and is included in one or more land parcels.

[0077] For example, in the example of Figure 2, the service provided to user U1 at the land located at address L, H town, G prefecture in column "3" may be the provision of CO2 emission rights. In addition to this, the rights information may indicate that the user U1 is provided with the right to camp in P, N town, the neighboring town.

[0078] This means that when business operator G owns or manages multiple pieces of land, it can promote the utilization of the land it owns or manages by providing services or products associated with one piece of land on another piece of land.

[0079] Furthermore, if the service provided by business operator G on land owned or managed by the business operator G is the right to scatter ashes, the right information may indicate the right to simulate the environment of the scattered land using virtual reality or augmented reality. In this case, user U1 may acquire an image of the scattered land by photographing it with a camera mounted on drone D, may detect the temperature of the scattered land using a temperature sensor mounted on drone D, may detect the wind speed of the scattered land using a wind speed sensor mounted on drone D, or may perform a combination of these.

[0080] The user U1 may obtain an image of the scattered land from the drone D via the network NW and display it on the screen of the terminal device 10. The user U1 may wear a headset capable of realizing virtual reality and have the fan of the headset blow air based on the temperature and wind speed of the scattered land, thereby simulating the experience of the scattered land, and may also display the image on the screen of the headset.

[0081] In this case, the image acquired from drone D via network NW may be different from the image displayed on the screen of terminal device 10 when user U1 purchases the right to receive the provision of a service or the sale of a product on land owned or managed by business operator G. In other words, the image at the time of the transaction for the provision of a service or the sale of a product on the land may differ from the image included in the actual service in terms of their real-time nature. Here, the image may be a still image or a video.

[0082] This allows user U1 to remember the deceased by simulating the environment of the land where the deceased's ashes were scattered, which is expected to provide an experience similar to visiting a grave without actually visiting a cemetery. Also, if the deceased loved mountain climbing, the surviving family can simulate the mountain trails and steep slopes that the deceased loved without actually visiting them. Therefore, it is expected that they will be able to reminisce about the deceased without actually visiting the places that the deceased loved.

[0083] In addition, the land owned or managed by operator G may be located in at least one of forest areas, hilly areas, mountainous areas, rivers, lakes, marshes, and valley areas.

[0084] This will enable the promotion of the utilization of land that is difficult to access and far from residential areas where many people live, without actually visiting the land.

[0085] In addition, the payment for the services provided by business operator G may be in the form of money, volunteer activities by user U1 on land owned or managed by business operator G, shareholder benefits for business operator G, coupons, donations, or any combination of these.

[0086] In addition, the manner in which compensation is received may include a manner in which business operator G receives compensation when user U1 expresses his or her intention to exercise his or her right to receive the provision of services or thereafter, or may include a manner in which business operator G does not request any compensation from user U1.

[0087] Furthermore, if the consideration provided to business operator G by user U1 is money, the manner in which the consideration is received may be a lump sum payment, installment payments, QR code (registered trademark) payment using a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or smartwatch, or payment using crypto assets or virtual currency.

[0088] This will provide multiple options for providing compensation and promote the utilization of land owned or managed by business operator G.

[0089] Also, for example, if the payment for the services provided by business operator G is volunteer work by user U1, the volunteer work may be tree planting activities on any of the land owned or managed by business operator G, greening activities, or thinning of forests.

[0090] In this way, by treating the compensation received from user U1 when promoting land utilization as environmental protection activities, it is possible to contribute to environmental protection in addition to land utilization.

[0091] For example, if the compensation received from user U1 when promoting land utilization is forest thinning, the land information may further include the right to receive sales of wood products made from thinned wood from the forest included in the land. This not only promotes the utilization of land owned or managed by business operator G, but also increases user U1's motivation to participate in volunteer activities. Furthermore, thinning allows light to reach the forest's surface, promoting the development of understory vegetation and maintaining the forest's functions.

[0092] Furthermore, the land where user U1 performs volunteer activities may be different from the land where user U1 receives services or goods from business operator G. In this case, the land where user U1 performs volunteer activities may be somehow related to the land where user U1 receives services or goods from business operator G.

[0093] In addition, the location of the land owned or managed by operator G may be identified by a closed plot defined by latitude and longitude, by an area to be assigned a land number (land number area), by one or more parcels of land, by any area predetermined by operator G, or by the address on the land's respective land registry.

[0094] When identifying land by latitude and longitude, for example, the acquisition unit 111 may acquire information indicating the correspondence between a map, an aerial photograph, or a satellite photograph and latitude and longitude, and the processing unit 12 may identify the coordinates of multiple points included in a line defining the outer edge of the land by latitude and longitude based on this information. Alternatively, the acquisition unit 111 may acquire information expressing the coordinates of each point included in the line defining the outer edge of the land by latitude and longitude, and the storage unit 13 may store this information. The first output unit 142 may output information expressing the coordinates of each point included in the line defining the outer edge of the land by latitude and longitude, or the communication unit 15 may transmit information expressing the coordinates of each point included in the line defining the outer edge of the land by latitude and longitude to an external device.

[0095] The acquisition unit 111 may also acquire information indicating the correspondence between a map, aerial photograph, or satellite photograph including the land and the latitude and longitude of each point included in the line defining the outer edge of the land. The processing unit 12 may generate a trained model by learning the correspondence between the aerial photograph or satellite photograph and the latitude and longitude of each point included in the line defining the outer edge of the land as training data. The storage unit 13 may store the trained model. Examples of machine learning techniques include, but are not limited to, SVR (support vector regression), random forest, and deep learning using neural networks.

[0096] Then, the acquisition unit 111 may acquire a map, an aerial photograph, or a satellite photograph of the land to be estimated. The processing unit 12 may estimate the latitude and longitude of each point included in a line defining the outer edge of the acquired map, aerial photograph, or satellite photograph based on the acquired map, aerial photograph, or satellite photograph and the trained model. The first output unit 142 may output the estimation result, and the communication unit 15 may transmit the estimation result to an external device.

[0097] Furthermore, the information indicating User U1's intention to receive services from Business G may be User U1's intention to provide or signify that he or she will provide land to Business G so that Business G can provide some service to User U1, or User U1's intention to join or signify that he or she will become a member of some association, organization, or corporation related to Business G in order to receive some service from Business G, or User U1's intention to raise a certain amount of funds through crowdfunding to consider, develop, or implement a service to be provided by Business G or to consider, develop, or implement a product to be sold in the future. In this case, User U1 and Business G may have agreed on the condition that User U1 can receive scattering services from Business G by raising a certain amount of funds.

[0098] The land information may be represented as one or more parcels of land included in a map displayed on the screen of the terminal device 10. In this case, the request information input received by the terminal device 10 from the user U1 may be a mouse cursor click operation by the user U1 on the land information displayed on the screen of the terminal device 10, or a touch operation by the user U1 on the land information displayed on a touch screen. In this case, the user U1 may click or touch an icon of the land and service that the business operator G desires to provide.

[0099] Furthermore, before providing the user U1 with access to the land information via the terminal device 10, the receiving unit 112 of the terminal device 10 may execute a step of receiving information indicating an application for a service to be provided in the future by the business operator G. That is, even if the user U1 does not know a candidate location for the service to be provided by the business operator G, the user U1 may apply for the service from the business operator G. In this case, the service provided by the business operator G is included in the desired service mode. The service may be scattering of ashes, or may include at least one of a drone flight over land managed or owned by the business operator G and carbon dioxide emission rights.

[0100] In the case of an ashes scattering service, for example, user U1 may be the deceased person themselves, or the deceased person's friend, relative, or guardian. The person (user U1), friend, relative, or guardian may apply for the ashes scattering service to be provided by business operator G in the future. Alternatively, the friend, relative, or guardian may apply after the person's death. In this case, user U1 may input contact information for at least one of the person, friend, relative, or guardian into terminal device 10. The contact information may include at least one of an email address, a phone number, a social network service (SNS) ID, and an address. The SNS may be, for example, at least one of Twitter (X), Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and Mixi.

[0101] For example, when applying for the service, user U1 may input information indicating the location where the ashes will actually be scattered into terminal device 10, and the reception unit 112 may accept the input. After applying for the scattering service, the information indicating the location where the ashes will actually be scattered may be specified on terminal device 10 by at least one of the person to be buried, friends, relatives, and guardians, before or after the death of the person to be buried, or may be specified by the business operator G, or may be notified to business operator G by at least one of the person, friends, relatives, and guardians via the Internet, email, etc. In this case, after information indicating an intention to exercise the right to receive the scattering service, i.e., an intention to request the scattering service, is entered or transmitted to at least one of terminal device 10 and a server device operated by business operator G, information indicating the location where the ashes will actually be scattered may be provided to business operator G by user U1.

[0102] For example, the compensation for the scattering of ashes service may be provided in part or in whole by at least one of the user U1, a friend, a relative, and a guardian to the business operator G at the time of applying for the service. After information indicating an intention to exercise the right to receive the scattering of ashes service is input or transmitted by at least one of the user U1, a friend, a relative, and a guardian to the terminal device 10 and at least one of the server devices operated by the business operator G, information indicating that compensation for the scattering of ashes will be provided may be provided to the business operator G by at least one of the user U1, a friend, a relative, and a guardian.

[0103] For example, while the traditional burial practice of burning the remains at a crematorium and then burying the burned remains in a grave has been widespread, there may be cases where the deceased wished to "return to nature after death," or where the deceased did not wish to be buried in a grave with ancestors they had no contact with or did not know, or where the deceased did not wish to be buried in a previously built grave, or where the deceased wished to cut ties with relatives they had known in life, or where the deceased wished not to burden their descendants and surviving relatives with the burden of grave care after they are buried after death. Therefore, as mentioned above, even if information about locations where ashes scattering services will actually be provided in the future is not clear, it is expected that the needs of those who apply for ashes scattering services will be met.

[0104] It should be noted that the method or apparatus described in this embodiment is not limited to the distribution of land, but may be applied to a method or apparatus for remotely distributing any commercial transaction object.
