Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for verifying the authenticity of stores are inefficient and prone to errors due to reliance on manual grid patrols, which are slow and may lead to misjudgment.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that utilize an electronic map to verify the authenticity of a store by searching for similar store names and addresses within preset conditions, eliminating the need for manual patrols.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual grid patrol is used to verify store authenticity, then verification can be performed, but the verification efficiency is low and the process is slow
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical patrol system with an automated electronic map-based verification system. The system uses electronic map data, store name matching algorithms, and address comparison to automatically verify store authenticity, eliminating the need for manual field patrol and dramatically improving verification efficiency while reducing time consumption.
Solution Approach 2:
The verification system enables self-service by allowing the electronic map system to automatically verify store authenticity using its own data resources. The system queries electronic map data, compares store information, and determines authenticity without requiring external manual intervention, making the verification process autonomous and efficient.
2Ease of operation
If manual patrol is used to determine store authenticity, then verification can be performed, but the process is complex and requires significant human resources
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces complex manual patrol operations with a simplified automated electronic verification system. The system uses algorithmic comparison of store names and addresses against electronic map data, transforming a complex human-resource-intensive process into a simple automated information processing task that is easier to operate and manage.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent extracts the essential verification elements (store name and address) from the complex manual patrol process and focuses verification on these key parameters. By extracting only the necessary information for verification and comparing it against electronic map data, the system simplifies the operation while maintaining verification effectiveness.
3Productivity
If electronic map-based verification is implemented, then verification efficiency increases, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent leverages the electronic map system's existing multi-functionality for verification purposes. The electronic map, which already serves navigation and location services, is additionally used for store authenticity verification by querying store information and comparing it with submitted data. This universal use of existing infrastructure improves verification efficiency without requiring entirely new complex systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes pre-existing electronic map data and store information databases that have been prepared in advance. By having the electronic map system maintain updated store information, addresses, and location data beforehand, the verification process can quickly compare submitted information against these pre-prepared databases, improving efficiency while relying on existing infrastructure rather than creating new complex systems.
Data Source
AI summary
A method, apparatus, device and storage medium for verifying a real store, which belong to the field of data processing. The method includes: acquiring inputted store information of a first store (S101); searching for, based on the store name and the store address of the first store, a first target store name in a first target area in an electronic map (102) searching for, based on the store address of the first store, a real store address database, and the store name of the first store, a second target store name in a second target area in the electronic map (S103) determining, under a condition that the first target store name or the second target store name exists, that the first store is a real store (S104).
