==MAP INFORMATION GENERATION METHOD AND APPARATUS, MAP INFORMATION USE METHOD AND APPARATUS, MAP, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18405354 titled 'MAP INFORMATION GENERATION METHOD AND APPARATUS, MAP INFORMATION USE METHOD AND APPARATUS, MAP, STORAGE MEDIUM, AND PROGRAM

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application abstract describes a method for generating map information that includes details about reference objects in a geographic area, such as their identifiers and positions, to allow for more abundant expression of related information and enable different map vendors to use the information for position expression.

* Explanation of the patent/innovation:
  * The innovation involves creating detailed map information that includes identifiers and positions of reference objects in a geographic area.
  * This information allows for more expressive representation of related information about the reference objects.
  * Different map vendors can use this information for position expression in their maps.

== Potential Applications ==
The technology could be applied in:
* Navigation systems
* Location-based services
* Geographic information systems

== Problems Solved ==
This technology addresses the following issues:
* Limited expressiveness in representing related information about reference objects on maps
* Incompatibility of reference objects across different map vendors

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include:
* Enhanced map information with detailed reference object data
* Improved ability to express related information about reference objects on maps
* Compatibility across different map vendors for position expression

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Optimized for SEO: "Commercial Applications of Map Information Generation Technology"
* Map software development
* GIS data providers
* Location-based advertising platforms

== Possible Prior Art ==
There may be prior art related to:
* Map data encoding methods
* Geographic information systems

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does this technology handle privacy concerns related to location data? ===
The technology does not address privacy concerns related to location data. This aspect would need to be considered separately in the implementation of the technology.

=== What are the potential limitations of using this technology in rural or remote areas with limited map data? ===
The technology may face challenges in rural or remote areas with limited map data, as the accuracy and availability of reference objects may be limited in such areas. Additional data collection efforts may be required to address this limitation.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Generating first map information, where the first map information includes information about a first reference object set, and the information about the first reference object set indicates a first identifier, in a geographic area, of each reference object in at least one reference object included in the first reference object set, and indicates a first position of each reference object in the at least one reference object. The first map information is generated, and the first map information indicates related information of each reference object in the first reference object set, to implement a manner of expressing the related information of the reference object more abundantly, so that maps provided by different map vendors may use reference objects in the first map information to perform position expression on an element or an event.
