Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method, according to the preamble of Claim 1 , for forming travel direction instructions and sending them in the direction of a mobile telecommunications terminal element.
  • Methods of this kind are used, to be able to provide an entity using a mobile telecommunications terminal element, such as a person travelling in strange surroundings, with information on the direction of travel and/or route from their departure location towards a destination location.
  • the depiction of a location in a graphical form on the basis travel direction instructions sent in the direction of a telecommunications terminal element takes place in the form of a map image.
  • a map image is the Finnish map service www.keltaisetsivut.fi, which provides the user with an image of the desired environment that is like an aerial photograph, seen essentially in the direction of the earth's radius.
  • travel direction instructions are also sent in the direction of the telecommunications terminal element. In that case, travel direction instructions are formed on the basis of location messages received by the GPS device and destination location information recorded in the GPS device and sent in the direction of the display element of the GPS device.
  • a drawback of the state of the art is that, enough though location guiding implemented in the form of a map works well when moving over flat areas with the horizon sufficiently far away, for example, on a country road. Instructions for the direction of travel in an urban environment correspond only very roughly to the landscape modelling that is natural to people. A map image is in an essentially different perspective to a person's observations of their surroundings. A GPS device does not allow for the extensive building masses in an urban environment, but instead provides travel direction instructions to the destination location, without taking physical obstacles into account.
  • the invention is intended to eliminate the defects of the state of the art disclosed above and for this purpose create an entirely new type of method for sending travel direction instructions, which imitate the landscape modelling that is natural to people, in the direction of a mobile terminal element.
