Server Position-Based Contribution Reliability Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing contribution sites face challenges in effectively judging the reliability of user-contributed information, as the reliability of posted content varies with each viewer's judgment, leading to inconsistent quality and potential posting of low-reliability information.
Innovation Solution
A server device that acquires contribution information, extracts specific information about the subject, compares it with the terminal device's position, and determines the display form and posting permission based on the position relationship, allowing viewers to recognize reliability and preventing low-reliability information from being posted.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If contribution information is posted without uniform reliability judgment, then all user information can be published freely, but low-reliability information may be posted affecting the subject
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by obtaining terminal position information before posting contribution information and comparing it with the subject position in advance. This allows the system to determine reliability beforehand based on positional coincidence, preventing low-reliability information from being posted while maintaining free contribution. The reliability judgment is performed prior to posting, not after.
2Reliability
If viewer judgment is used to determine posting permission, then posting control can be implemented, but reliability judgment becomes inconsistent as it changes per viewer
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies self-service by enabling the terminal device itself to provide reliability evidence through its position information. The terminal's location data automatically verifies whether the user is at the subject location, eliminating the need for complex viewer judgment systems. The reliability is determined objectively through positional coincidence rather than subjective viewer assessment.
3Reliability
If position comparison is performed to determine reliability, then reliable information can be identified, but additional position information processing is required
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses terminal position information as an intermediary that objectively mediates between the contributor and the contribution information. Instead of complex multi-factor reliability assessment, the system uses position coincidence as a simple intermediary indicator. When terminal position matches subject position, reliability is confirmed; otherwise, it is questioned. This intermediary approach simplifies the reliability determination process.

AI summary
A server device to which a terminal device is connectable via a network includes contribution information acquisition code that causes at least one processor to acquire contribution information from the terminal device, terminal information acquisition code that causes at least one processor to acquire terminal position information indicating a position of the terminal device, extraction code that causes at least one processor to extract specific information capable of specifying a subject of contribution from the acquired contribution information, contribution subject information acquisition code that causes at least one processor to acquire contribution subject position information indicating a position of the subject of contribution, comparison code that causes at least one processor to compare the acquired contribution subject position information with the acquired terminal position information, and determination code that causes at least one processor to determine a display form of the contribution information on posting based on a comparison result.
