This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202110739759.1, filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration on Jun. 30, 2021 and entitled “MAP DISPLAY METHOD, APPARATUS, AND TERMINAL DEVICE”, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
This application relates to the field of electronic map technologies, and in particular, to a map display method, an apparatus, and a terminal device.
An electronic map may provide persons with services such as point of interest (point of interest, POI) query, navigation, and route planning, and is one of important applications in daily life of persons. A three-dimensional (three-dimensional, 3D) map can display map elements such as buildings and roads from a three-dimensional perspective, and more realistically restore a real world. Therefore, the three-dimensional map is favored by many users.
When using the 3D map, the user may tilt a map plane to enable the map to display a larger field of view range, so that the user can view a farther part of the map. However, if a display field of view of the map is enlarged, an amount of data displayed on the map increases exponentially. In this case, indicators such as traffic, power consumption, and rendering overheads also increase.
In view of this, this application provides a map display method, an apparatus, and a terminal device, to reduce traffic, power consumption, and rendering overheads required for displaying a 3D map.
To achieve the foregoing objective, according to a first aspect, an embodiment of this application provides a map display method, applied to a terminal device. The method includes:
A tile in the first screen sub-region is a first tile, a tile in the second screen sub-region is a second tile, and a level of the second tile is less than a level of the first tile.
A map displayed in the first map region may be a 2D map or a 3D map.
According to the map display method provided in this embodiment, when a map is displayed, tiles of different levels may be loaded and displayed in screen sub-regions. A level of a tile in an upper screen sub-region is less than a level of a tile in a lower screen sub-region. In this way, a map data volume required by a remote region of the map can be effectively reduced, and therefore traffic, power consumption, and rendering overheads can be reduced. Therefore, the terminal device can support 3D map display requirements of various sizes of fields of view, and map data in the remote region can also be displayed to the user in this solution, so that use experience of the user can also be improved.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the second interface is a navigation interface or an interface displaying a non-navigation map.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the first operation includes at least one of the following operations: an operation of enabling a navigation mode, a gesture operation of changing a tilt angle of a map plane, a tapping operation on a target control, a map zooming operation, and a map panning operation.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the second interface includes a first object. When the first object is completely located in the first screen sub-region, a 3D model corresponding to the first object is displayed.
When a first part of the first object is located in the first screen sub-region and a second part of the first object is located in the second screen sub-region, a 3D model corresponding to the first part is displayed, and a 3D model corresponding to the second part is not displayed.
When the first object completely moves to the second screen sub-region, the 3D model corresponding to the first object is not displayed.
In the foregoing implementation, in a process in which the first object moves from the first screen sub-region to the second screen sub-region, an effect that the 3D model gradually disappears when passing through a boundary line between the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region can be visually presented. In this way, visual experience of the user can be improved.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, a tile in the first map region is a third tile, and the level of the first tile is equal to a level of the third tile.
The third tile displayed in the first map region may be a 2D map.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the second tile does not include a 3D model. In this way, the 3D model is not displayed in the second screen sub-region, so that a required map data volume can be further reduced.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the first tile includes a 3D model.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes:

In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the method further includes:
In the foregoing implementation, the user can freely choose whether to disable the multi-level display mode in the non-navigation mode, so that map display flexibility can be improved, and user experience can be further improved.
In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the displaying a second interface in response to the first operation includes:
In the foregoing implementation, when the tilt angle of the to-be-displayed map plane is greater than or equal to the target angle, the map is displayed in the multi-level display mode. In this way, user experience can be further improved when terminal overheads are ensured.

In a possible implementation of the first aspect, the plurality of screen sub-regions further include a third screen sub-region, and the third screen sub-region is located between the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region; and
There may be one or more third screen sub-regions.
In the foregoing implementation, when displaying the map, the terminal device may obtain more screen sub-regions through division based on a requirement, so that the map display flexibility can be improved.

The following describes embodiments of this application with reference to accompanying drawings in embodiments of this application. Terms used in implementations in embodiments of this application are merely used to explain specific embodiments of this application, but are not intended to limit this application.
When an electronic map is displayed, required map data is usually downloaded in real time, and then rendered and displayed. Richness of the electronic map is closely related to a map data volume. A larger map data volume indicates higher traffic consumption of a terminal device and more rendering overheads. In this way, power consumption of the terminal device is also higher.
Most current electronic maps can provide both a two-dimensional (two-dimensional, 2D) map and a 3D map. When the 3D map is displayed, a larger tilt angle of a map plane indicates a larger field of view displayed on the map, in other words, a user can view a farther place on the map. This requires a larger map data volume, resulting in more traffic, power consumption, and rendering overheads.
To reduce the traffic, power consumption, and rendering overheads required for displaying the 3D map, with reference to
With reference to
For the foregoing two solutions, in the first solution, specific field of view display is sacrificed when the tilt angle of the map plane is reduced. However, the field of view display is very important in use of the map. Especially in navigation, a large field of view helps the user learn more road condition information in front of the user. Consequently, a small field of view affects use experience of the user. In the second solution, the sky color is used to replace map information of the remote region, and the user cannot view map data of the remote region. This also affects the use experience of the user.
Based on this, embodiments of this application provide a map display method. A map display region of a screen is divided in a map display process, so that map tile data of a target level is loaded in a lower screen region for displaying a nearby region of a map, and map tile data of a level lower than the target level is loaded in an upper screen region for displaying a remote region of the map. In this way, traffic, power consumption, and rendering overheads are reduced, and the electronic map can have larger field of view display and better use experience.
A system in embodiments of this application is first described.
The terminal device 100 may be an electronic device having display, calculation, and network access functions. For example, the terminal device 100 may be a device that can display a map, for example, a mobile phone, a vehicle-mounted terminal, an intelligent wearable device, or a personal computer. The intelligent wearable device may include a smart watch, smart glasses, and the like. The personal computer may include a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, and the like. In
A user may use a map function through map-related software such as an application (application, app), an applet, or a system function on the terminal device 100. The map-related app may include various map apps, browser apps, game apps, positioning apps, and the like. The applet may also include various map applets, browser applets, game applets, positioning applets, and the like. For ease of description, the following uses a map app as an example to describe the technical solutions of this application.
The map-related software on the terminal device 100 may provide services such as positioning, POI query, navigation, and route planning by using the displayed map. A type of the map displayed by the terminal device 100 may include a 2D map, a 3D map, a thermodynamic diagram, a satellite map, a topographic map, an indoor map, a bus map, a customized layer, and the like.
The server 200 is configured to provide map data. The terminal device 100 may obtain to-be-displayed map data from the server 200, and then perform rendering and display.
Specifically, the map data in the server 200 may be a series of tiles (tile) generated based on a tile map technology. The terminal device 100 may determine a required tile based on a to-be-displayed geographical range, and perform rendering and splicing after downloading, to display a complete map.
In the tile map technology, a large-sized map (for example, a world map) is divided into a series of map slices of an equal size (for example, 256*256 pixels) through multi-scale hierarchical cutting. Each map slice obtained through division is referred to as a tile (tile). These tiles form a pyramid model shown in
The tile pyramid model is a multi-resolution hierarchical model. From a bottom layer to a top layer of the tile pyramid model, a resolution is lower, but an indicated geographical range remains unchanged. The world map is used as an example. As shown in
As shown in
Tiles at each layer form a tile matrix. A tile can be uniquely determined based on a level number, a row number, and a column number of the tile.
It may be understood that a numbering manner of the tile is not limited to the foregoing coordinate manner, and another manner may be used. For example, a three-digit number manner is used for representation. The first digit may represent the level, the second digit may represent the row number of the tile, and the third digit may represent the column number of the tile. In addition, the origin of a tile coordinate system is not limited to the upper left corner of the world map, or may be the lower left corner or the central location of the world map. This is not particularly limited in embodiments of this application.
The tile includes a group of layers, and each layer includes some geometric elements. As shown in
Geometric element types of map elements included in tiles of different levels may be different. For example, a low-level tile may include map elements of the line type and the plane type, and a high-level tile may include map elements of the point type, the line type, the plane type, and the 3D model type.
In this embodiment, when displaying a 2D map, the terminal device 100 may determine a to-be-displayed geographical range based on a size of a map display region on a screen, a current location of the terminal device 100, and a to-be-displayed map tile level (referred to as a target level herein), then determine coordinates of a tile of the target level that can cover the geographical range, download the tile corresponding to the determined tile coordinates from the server 200, and render the downloaded tile and display the tile in the map display region.
A 3D map includes a large quantity of map elements. In addition, as a tilt angle of a map plane increases, an involved geographical range is also larger, in other words, more map information needs to be displayed. To reduce a required map data volume and ensure that the electronic map can have larger field of view display and better visual experience, in this embodiment, when displaying the 3D map, the terminal device 100 may divide a map display region on a screen into a plurality of vertically arranged screen sub-regions, and display tiles of different levels in different screen sub-regions. A tile map of a target level may be displayed in a bottom screen sub-region, and levels of tiles displayed on the screen sub-regions may be gradually reduced from bottom to top.
The following separately describes the map display method in this application by using two screen sub-regions obtained through division and three screen sub-regions obtained through division as examples.
Step S110: A terminal device detects a first operation of a user.
Specifically, the first operation may trigger the terminal device to display a 3D map, and the terminal device may detect, in a process of displaying a 2D map or a 3D map, the first operation performed by the user for a map display interface.
When the terminal device displays the 2D map, the first operation that can trigger the terminal device to display the 3D map may be an operation of enabling a navigation mode. For example, after selecting a route on a 2D map display interface, the user taps a “start navigation” control. Then, a map app enters the navigation mode, and automatically uses the 3D map to perform navigation.
Alternatively, the first operation may be a preset gesture operation. For example, the user may change a tilt angle of a map plane on a 2D map display interface by using a multi-touch slide-down operation or a multi-touch slide-up operation. When the tilt angle of the to-be-displayed map plane is greater than 0, the terminal device may respond to the operation of the user to display a 3D map corresponding to the tilt angle.
It may be understood that the preset gesture operation is not limited to the multi-touch slide-down operation and multi-touch slide-up operation, and may alternatively be another operation, for example, an air gesture operation. This is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
Alternatively, the first operation may be a tapping operation performed by the user on the map display interface for a target control.
The map type selection bar may further include an option of another map type, for example, a satellite map shown in (b) in
When the terminal device displays the 2D map, the first operation that can trigger the terminal device to display the 3D map may also be the foregoing preset gesture operation. For example, the user may change a tilt angle of a map plane on a 3D map display interface by using a multi-touch slide-down operation or a multi-touch slide-up operation. When the tilt angle of the to-be-displayed map plane is greater than 0, the terminal device may respond to the operation of the user to display a 3D map corresponding to the tilt angle.
The first operation may alternatively be a map zooming operation or a map panning operation performed by the user on a 3D map display interface.
It should be noted that various operations input by the user in this embodiment of this application may be the foregoing manual input operation, or may be a voice instruction input operation. For ease of description, the manual input operation is used as an example for description in this embodiment of this application.
As described above, in this embodiment, when the 3D map is displayed, tiles of a plurality of levels may be displayed in a map display region, in other words, a multi-level display manner is used in the map display region. To meet different requirements of the user, in this embodiment, a switch function of a multi-level display mode may be provided, and the user may enable or disable the multi-level display mode by using the function.
It may be understood that an implementation of the switch function of the “multi-level display mode” is not limited to the switch control 201, and may alternatively be another manner, for example, by using two single-option controls. This is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
Considering that a map data volume in a non-navigation mode is small, to better meet different requirements of the user, in this embodiment, a switch function of disabling the multi-level display mode in the non-navigation mode may be provided.
During specific implementation, as shown in
In an optional implementation, as shown in (a) and (b) in
In addition, the map setting interface may further include another map setting option, for example, a “map display font” setting option shown in
It may be understood that, implementations of the switch function of the multi-level display mode and the switch function of disabling the multi-level display mode in the non-navigation mode are not limited to the foregoing manner of setting a switch control, and may alternatively be another manner. For example, a gesture recognition manner may be used. When a first target gesture operation (namely, a second operation) performed by the user on the map display interface is detected, the multi-level display mode is enabled. When a second target gesture operation (namely, a third operation) performed by the user on the map display interface is detected, the multi-level display mode is disabled in the non-navigation mode.
When the multi-level display mode is enabled, the terminal device may display the 3D map in the multi-level display manner. Considering that a small tilt angle of the map plane requires a small map data volume, in this embodiment, to improve user experience, the 3D map may be displayed in the multi-level display manner when the tilt angle of the to-be-displayed map plane reaches a target angle.
The target angle may be set based on an actual requirement, for example, may be 10 degrees. This is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
Step S120: In response to the first operation, the terminal device divides the map display region of a screen into a first screen sub-region and a second screen sub-region located above the first screen sub-region.
When the 3D map is displayed in the multi-level display manner, as described above, tiles of different levels may be displayed in different screen sub-regions. Refer to
The map display region may be all or a part of region on the screen. For example, in a split screen mode, the map display region is with a size of one of split screen regions. For ease of description, in this embodiment of this application, an example in which the map display region is an entire region of the screen is used for description.
A size of the map display region may be represented by using a screen size, or may be represented by using a screen resolution shown in
The region division ratio may be a preset fixed ratio. For example, the region division ratio may be preset to 1:3 shown in
The region division ratio may alternatively be determined based on the size of the map display region. During specific implementation, a correspondence (referred to as a first correspondence) between a size of the map display region and a quantity of screen sub-regions obtained through division and a correspondence (referred to as a second correspondence) between a quantity of screen sub-regions obtained through division and a screen division ratio may be preset, and then the region division ratio is determined based on the two correspondences.
For example, in the first correspondence, a height range and a width range of a corresponding map display region may be set for each quantity of screen sub-regions obtained through division. For a small screen, a map display region is correspondingly small, and in this case, two screen sub-regions may be obtained through division. For a large screen, a map display region is correspondingly large, and in this case, three or more screen sub-regions may be obtained through division. In
In the second correspondence, a screen division ratio corresponding to each quantity of screen sub-regions obtained through division may be set based on a requirement. For example, as shown in
To improve use experience of the user, when the screen sub-regions are obtained through division, an area of the first screen sub-region is greater than an area of the second screen sub-region. In this way, a high-level tile with a large range can be displayed to the user, so that the user can better obtain map information.
In addition, when the map is displayed, the map may be displayed in a portrait mode or in a landscape mode. When the map is displayed in the portrait mode, as shown in
Step S130: The terminal device determines an identifier of a first tile to be displayed in the first screen sub-region and an identifier of a second tile to be displayed in the second screen sub-region, where a level of the second tile is less than a level of the first tile.
After the screen sub-regions are obtained through division, in this embodiment, the terminal device may first determine a tile to be displayed in each screen sub-region, and then obtain the related tile. Each tile may have a unique identifier. When determining a tile, the terminal device may specifically determine an identifier of the tile.
Specifically, in some embodiments, as shown in
Step S131: Determine a first geographical range to be displayed in the map display region.
During specific implementation, a to-be-displayed target level and coordinates of a target central point (namely, coordinates of a central point of a geographical range to be displayed in the map display region) may be first determined, and then a geographical range (namely, the first geographical range) to be displayed by the terminal device is determined based on the target level, the coordinates of the target central point, and the size of the map display region.
The target level is a map tile level of a 2D map corresponding to the to-be-displayed 3D map, namely, a level of a tile displayed on the 2D map when the to-be-displayed 3D map is switched to the 2D map. The target level may be preset, or may be determined based on an operation of the user or a preset map display policy. When the map app is started, a preset level may be used as a target level for the first frame of map displayed by the map app. After the user performs a zooming operation, the terminal device may determine a target level based on a current level and the zooming operation of the user. In a navigation process, the terminal device may determine a target level based on a current location of the terminal device and the preset map display policy.
The coordinates of the target central point are geographical location coordinates of a central point of the map display region, and may be determined based on the current location of the terminal device, an operation of the user, or the preset map display policy. When the map app is started, coordinates of a target central point of the first frame of map displayed by the map app may be the current location of the terminal device. After the user performs a map panning operation, the terminal device may determine coordinates of a target central point based on coordinates of a current central point and the map panning operation of the user. In the navigation process, the map app may determine coordinates of a target central point based on the current location of the terminal device, coordinates of a current central point, and the preset map display policy.
That the map app is started to display the first frame of map is used as an example. In this case, the terminal device may use the preset level (for example, level 16) as the target level, use the current location of the terminal device as the coordinates of the target central point, and then determine the first geographical range based on the target level, the coordinates of the target central point, and the screen size.
The current location of the terminal device may be represented by using a longitude and latitude manner or another coordinate representation manner, and the first geographical range may be represented by using geographical location coordinates corresponding to four vertices of the map display region.
Step S132: Separately determine, based on the first geographical range, a second geographical range to be displayed in the first screen sub-region and a second geographical range to be displayed in the second screen sub-region.
After the first geographical range corresponding to the entire map display region is determined, a geographical range (namely, a second geographical range) to be displayed in each screen sub-region may be determined based on a division rule of the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region. For example, the region division ratio of the second screen sub-region to the first screen sub-region is 1:3, and correspondingly, a ratio of a size of the second geographical range corresponding to the second screen sub-region to a size of the second geographical range corresponding to the first screen sub-region is 1:3. In other words, the first geographical range is divided based on the ratio of 1:3 in a manner similar to the screen sub-region division rule, to obtain the second geographical range corresponding to the first screen sub-region and the second geographical range corresponding to the second screen sub-region.
Specifically, geographical location coordinates of two ends of a boundary line between the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region may be determined based on the geographical location coordinates of the four vertices of the map display region. In this case, the second geographical range corresponding to the first screen sub-region may be represented by using geographical location coordinates of two vertices at the lower end of the map display region and the two ends of the boundary line, and the second geographical range corresponding to the second screen sub-region may be represented by using geographical location coordinates of two vertices at the upper end of the map display region and the two ends of the boundary line.
Step S133: Determine a level of a tile to be displayed in the first screen sub-region and a level of a tile to be displayed in the second screen sub-region.
In step S133, when a level of a tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is determined, the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region may be equal to the target level, where the target level is a level corresponding to the first geographical range in step S131, for example, level 16 shown in
In some embodiments, considering that a 3D model requires a large map data volume, to further reduce the required map data volume, an upper limit level may be set for the level of the tile to be displayed in the second screen sub-region, in other words, the level of the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region may be lower than a preset level (referred to as a second preset level herein). A tile corresponding to the second preset level includes a 3D model, and a tile with a level one level lower than the second preset level does not include a 3D model. For example, when the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is level 18, assuming that the first preset level is two levels, and the second preset level is level 16, according to the rule that the level of the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is two levels lower than the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region, the level of the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is level 16. Considering that a tile of level 16 includes a 3D model, and the 3D model requires a large map data volume, when the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is level 18, the level of the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is set to level 15. A tile of level 15 does not include a 3D model, and therefore the map data volume can be reduced.
In other words, when the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is lower than level 18, the level of the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is two levels lower than the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region; when the level of the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is greater than or equal to level 18, the level of the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is level 15. For ease of description, an example in which the second preset level is level 16 is used subsequently for description. In other words, a tile with a level higher than or equal to level 16 includes a 3D model, and a tile with a level lower than level 16 does not include a 3D model.
Step S134: For each screen sub-region, determine an identifier of the tile to be displayed in the screen sub-region based on the second geographical range corresponding to the screen sub-region and the level of the to-be-displayed tile.
According to a tile division rule, a corresponding tile identifier determining algorithm is set in the app of the terminal device. After the geographical range to be displayed in each screen sub-region and the level of the tile to be displayed in each screen sub-region are determined, for each screen sub-region, an identifier of a tile that can cover the second geographical range may be determined based on the second geographical range corresponding to the screen sub-region, the level of the tile, and the tile identifier determining algorithm. The identifier of the tile may be a tile number numbered by using tile coordinates or another numbering manner.
During specific implementation, for each screen sub-region, the terminal device may determine, based on geographical location coordinates of four vertices of the second geographical range corresponding to the screen sub-region, the level of the tile to be displayed in the screen sub-region, and the tile identifier determining algorithm, identifiers of tiles (referred to as tiles 1 herein) in which the four vertices are located; then determine, based on the identifiers of the four tiles 1, identifiers of tiles (referred to as tiles 2 herein) located between the four tiles; and combine the identifiers of the tiles 1 and the identifiers of the tiles 2 between the tiles 1, to obtain identifiers of tiles to be displayed in the screen sub-region.
It may be understood that there is no strict time sequence execution relationship between step S133 and step S131. Step S133 may be performed after step S131, or may be performed before step S131, or may be performed in parallel with step S131. This is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
S140: The terminal device sends a tile request to the server.
After identifiers of tiles corresponding to all screen sub-regions are determined, the identifiers of the tiles may be carried in the tile request, and then the request is sent to the server to download the corresponding tiles.
The tile request may further carry other information of the tile. For example, the tile request may carry type information of the tile. A value of the type parameter may indicate a geometric element type of the requested tile. In other words, when the tile is requested, all or a part of geometric element types included in the tile may be requested.
For example, the tile request is “http://bj04maptest04.hwcloudtest.cn:9080/temp/terrainvector/V1?tileType=20&x={x}&y={y}&z={z}”, where “http://bj04maptest04.hwcloudtest.cn:9080/temp/terrainvector/V1” represents an address of the server, “tileType=20” represents the type parameter, and “x={x}&y={y}&z={z}” represents the identifier of the tile. For example, a value of the type parameter tileType herein is 20, indicating that a point, a line, a plane, and a 3D model included in the tile are requested. For example, a level of the requested tile is level 16, and geometric elements in the tile include a point, a line, a plane, and a 3D model. In this case, when the value of tileType is 20, all points, lines, planes, and 3D models included in the tile are requested.
It may be understood that, in a process in which the user uses the map app, the map app may store a recently downloaded tile in a local buffer, so that the tile can be quickly obtained when the tile is subsequently used again. Therefore, in some implementations, after the identifier of the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is determined, whether the corresponding tile exists in the local buffer may be first checked. For a tile existing in the buffer, the tile may not need to be requested from the server, so that data traffic is reduced and download efficiency is improved. For example, N tiles are required to be displayed in the map display region, and M tiles in the N tiles exist in the buffer. In this case, when tiles are requested from the server, remaining N-M tiles may be requested.
Step S150: The terminal device receives a tile that corresponds to each identifier and that is returned by the server.
After receiving the tile request, the server may determine the corresponding tile based on the identifier of the tile carried in the tile request, and then return the tile corresponding to each identifier to the terminal device. Correspondingly, the terminal device may receive the tile that corresponds to each identifier and that is returned by the server.
Step S160: The terminal device renders and displays the first tile in the first screen sub-region, and renders and displays the second tile in the second screen sub-region.
Specifically, after the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is obtained, the first tile may be rendered in the first screen sub-region and the second tile may be rendered in the second screen sub-region by a graphics processing unit (graphics processing unit, GPU) by invoking a rendering tool, for example, an open graphics library (open graphics library, OpenGL), and then the first tile and the second tile are displayed in the map display region on the screen.
In this embodiment, an obtained geographical range covered by the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is usually greater than the geographical range to be displayed in the screen sub-region. Therefore, during rendering, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region and the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region may exceed the boundary line between the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region, in other words, map display regions required by tiles corresponding to the two screen sub-regions may overlap. In this case, the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region may be displayed in an overlapping region, or the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region may be displayed in the overlapping region.
For the case in which the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is displayed in the overlapping region, because a map display region corresponding to a high-level tile may be larger, as much map content as possible can be displayed to the user when the map data volume is reduced, and therefore the use experience of the user can be improved to some extent.
During specific implementation, a template testing technology in OpenGL may be used to render the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions from bottom to top. Alternatively, the template testing technology may not be used, and a conventional repeated drawing manner is used to render the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions from top to bottom. In this way, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is displayed in the overlapping region.
When the conventional repeated drawing manner is used, if the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions are rendered from top to bottom, to be specific, the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is first rendered, and then the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is rendered, when the map display regions of the tiles corresponding to the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region overlap, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region may be overlaid above the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region, so that the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is displayed in the overlapping region.
Drawing content of a to-be-drawn image (for example, a tile) can be flexibly controlled by using the template testing technology. In this embodiment, during tile drawing, the template testing technology may be used to prevent repeated tile drawing in the map display region. In this way, when the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions are rendered from bottom to top, to be specific, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region is first rendered, and then the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is rendered, if the map display regions of the tiles corresponding to the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region overlap, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region has been drawn in the overlapping region when the tile corresponding to the second screen sub-region is drawn, and no other tile is repeatedly drawn in the overlapping region. Therefore, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region may be finally displayed in the overlapping region.
The conventional repeated drawing manner is simple and easy to implement. The drawing manner based on the template testing technology can reduce a drawing data volume and improve rendering efficiency. During specific implementation, the two manners may be selected based on requirements. This is not particularly limited in this embodiment.
Based on a manner of rendering tiles from top to bottom, the tile corresponding to the first screen sub-region may be displayed across the boundary line between the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region. For a tile (referred to as a target tile herein) displayed across the boundary line (for example, a level of the target tile is level 16), there is a 3D building in the target tile, and the tile may present a display effect shown in
With reference to
To improve this case and improve the use experience of the user, in this embodiment, when the target tile is displayed across the boundary line between the corresponding first screen sub-region and the upper adjacent second screen sub-region, a 3D model may not be displayed on an upper part that exceeds the boundary line. As described above, the 3D model may include a 3D building, a 3D road, and the like. In this embodiment, the 3D building is used as an example for description below.
The target tile shown in
To implement the foregoing display effect, in this embodiment, when the map is rendered, a map element in a tile may be drawn in a manner of modifying a far section.
Specifically, when an image is rendered by using the rendering tool, for example, OpenGL, a 3D model is projected to the screen by using a projection transformation technology to form a 2D image, to present a 3D world on a 2D plane. Because a perspective projection technology is similar to a human visual system, currently, the technology is mostly used for image drawing.
The perspective projection technology simulates an imaging process of a camera to form a 2D image, and adjusts coordinates of a drawn object by using a virtual camera location. Specifically, as shown in
The viewpoint location is a location of a viewpoint relative to the map plane. A distance L (namely, a height of a virtual camera) from the viewpoint to a 2D map plane may be determined based on a to-be-displayed target level, and a projection of the viewpoint on the 2D map plane overlaps a central point of the 2D map plane, so that the viewpoint location may be determined accordingly. When a 2D map is drawn, the 2D map plane is a map plane of the to-be-displayed 2D map. When a 3D map is drawn, the 2D map plane is a 2D map plane corresponding to the to-be-displayed 3D map, namely, a map plane corresponding to a 2D map obtained after the to-be-displayed 3D map is switched to the 2D map.
The camera angle of view, a location of the near section, and a location of the far section may be preset. The location of the near section may be specifically represented by a distance from the near section to the viewpoint. Similarly, the location of the far section may be represented by a distance from the far section to the viewpoint.
The map plane includes a tile to be displayed in a map display region.
When the 2D map is drawn, the tilt angle of the map plane is 0 degrees. When the 3D map is drawn, the tilt angle of the map plane is greater than 0 degrees.
In the foregoing steps, after the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions are obtained, the first tile and the second tile may be displayed in the map display region on the screen through the graphics processing unit (graphics processing unit, GPU) by invoking the rendering tool, for example, the open graphics library (open graphics library, OpenGL). A specific principle includes:
After tile data corresponding to each screen sub-region is obtained, and it is determined that the tile is used to draw a 3D map, the map app obtains rendering parameters used to draw the 3D map. As shown in (a) in
After the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is obtained, and it is determined that the tile is used to draw a 2D map, after obtaining rendering parameters used to draw the 2D map, as shown in (b) in
Based on the foregoing principle, in this embodiment, as shown in
The target location is at an intersection point between the map plane and a ray that points from the viewpoint to a location of the boundary line on the near section (because the figure is a side view, the boundary line is represented as a point), and the target location is on a modified far section. Actually, the target location is at an intersection point between the modified far section and the map plane. In
In the embodiment of
When 3D model data of the tiles included in the first screen sub-region and the second screen sub-region is drawn, as shown in (b) in
As shown in
It may be understood that the target location is determined based on a plurality of factors such as the location of the boundary line, a distance from the viewpoint to a 2D map plane corresponding to the 3D map plane, and the tilt angle of the 3D map plane. As shown in
As shown in
The foregoing describes a case in which there are two screen sub-regions, and the following describes a case in which there are three screen sub-regions.
Step S210: A terminal device detects a first operation of a user.
This step is similar to step S110. For related descriptions, refer to step S110. Details are not described herein again.
Step S220: In response to the first operation, the terminal device divides a map display region of a screen into three vertically arranged screen sub-regions.
With reference to
To improve use experience of the user, when the screen sub-regions are obtained through division, areas of the screen sub-regions may be gradually reduced from bottom to top. In this way, a high-level tile with a large range can be displayed to the user, so that the user can better obtain map information.
Other content in this step is similar to that in step S120. For specific descriptions, refer to related descriptions in step S120. Details are not described herein again.
Step S230: The terminal device determines an identifier of a tile to be displayed in each screen sub-region, where levels of tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions are gradually reduced from bottom to top.
Similar to step S130, the terminal device may first determine the identifier of the tile to be displayed in each screen sub-region, and then obtain the related tile.
Specifically, when determining the tile, the terminal device may first determine a first geographical range to be displayed in the map display region, and then determine, based on the first geographical range, a second geographical range to be displayed in each screen sub-region. In addition, the terminal device may determine, based on a target level, a level of the tile to be displayed in each screen sub-region. Finally, for each screen sub-region, the terminal device may determine the identifier of the tile to be displayed in the screen sub-region based on the second geographical range corresponding to the screen sub-region and the level of the to-be-displayed tile.
When the level of the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is determined, a level of a tile corresponding to a screen sub-region (namely, the screen sub-region 1) closest to the bottom of the screen may be equal to the target level, for example, level 17 shown in
It may be understood that first preset levels corresponding to pairs of adjacent screen sub-regions may be the same or may be different, to be specific, a tile level difference between the screen sub-region 2 and the screen sub-region 1 may be different from a tile level difference between the screen sub-region 3 and the screen sub-region 2. In
In addition, a level of a tile corresponding to a screen sub-region (namely, the screen sub-region 3) closest to the top of the screen may be lower than a second preset level, to further reduce a required map data volume.
Other content in this step is similar to that in step S120. For specific descriptions, refer to related descriptions in step S120. Details are not described herein again.
Step S240: The terminal device sends a tile request to a server.
After identifiers of tiles corresponding to all screen sub-regions are determined, the identifiers of the tiles may be carried in the tile request, and then the request is sent to the server to download the corresponding tiles.
For related descriptions of the tile request, refer to step S140. Details are not described herein again.
Similar to step S140, after the identifier of the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is determined, whether the corresponding tile exists in a local buffer may be first checked. For a tile existing in the buffer, the tile may not need to be requested from the server, so that data traffic is reduced and download efficiency is improved.
Step S250: The terminal device receives a tile that corresponds to each identifier and that is returned by the server.
Step S260: The terminal device renders each obtained tile and displays the tile in the map display region.
After the tile corresponding to each screen sub-region is obtained, the corresponding tile may be rendered in each screen sub-region by a GPU by invoking a rendering tool, for example, OpenGL, and then is displayed in the map display region on the screen.
Similar to step S160, when map display regions of tiles corresponding to two adjacent screen sub-regions overlap, a tile corresponding to a screen sub-region that is in the two screen sub-regions and that is close to the bottom of the screen may be displayed in an overlapping region. Correspondingly, during rendering and display, a template testing technology may be used to render the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions from bottom to top. Alternatively, the template testing technology may not be used, and the tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions are rendered from top to bottom.
When the tiles are rendered in the foregoing manner, when a target tile is displayed crosses a boundary line between a corresponding screen sub-region and an upper adjacent screen sub-region, if a tile corresponding to the adjacent screen sub-region does not include a 3D model, no 3D model is displayed in a part that is of the target tile and that is above the boundary line, to improve the use experience of the user.
For example, as shown in (a) in
It may be understood that a target tile corresponding to the screen sub-region 1 is not limited to the tile A, and a target tile corresponding to the screen sub-region 2 is not limited to the tile B. There may be a plurality of target tiles corresponding to each of the screen sub-region 1 and the screen sub-region 2.
Other content in this step is similar to that in step S160. For specific descriptions, refer to related descriptions in step S160. Details are not described herein again.
In addition, for a case in which there are more screen sub-regions, a display principle is similar to that in the case in which there are three screen sub-regions. Details are not described herein again.

According to the map display method provided in this embodiment, in a map display process, the map display region of the screen is divided, and tiles of different levels are loaded and displayed in screen sub-regions. Levels of tiles corresponding to the screen sub-regions are gradually reduced from bottom to top.

Therefore, the terminal device can support the 3D map display requirements of various sizes of fields of view, and the map data in the remote region can also be displayed to the user in this solution, so that the use experience of the user can also be improved.

All or some of the foregoing embodiments may be implemented by using software, hardware, firmware, or any combination thereof. When software is used to implement the embodiments, all or some of the embodiments may be implemented in a form of a computer program product. The computer program product includes one or more computer instructions. When the computer program instructions are loaded and executed on a computer, the procedure or functions according to embodiments of this application are completely or partially generated. The computer may be a general-purpose computer, a dedicated computer, a computer network, or another programmable apparatus. The computer instructions may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium, or may be transmitted by using the computer-readable storage medium. The computer instructions may be transmitted from a website, computer, server, or data center to another website, computer, server, or data center in a wired (for example, a coaxial cable, an optical fiber, or a digital subscriber line) or wireless (for example, infrared, radio, or microwave) manner. The computer-readable storage medium may be any usable medium accessible by a computer, or a data storage device, like a server or a data center, integrating one or more usable media. The usable medium may be a magnetic medium (for example, a floppy disk, a hard disk, or a magnetic tape), an optical medium (for example, a DVD), a semiconductor medium (for example, a solid state disk (Solid State Disk, SSD)), or the like.
Persons of ordinary skill in the art may understand that all or some of the procedures of the methods in embodiments may be implemented by a computer program instructing related hardware. The program may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium. When the program is executed, the procedures in the method embodiments may be performed. The foregoing storage medium may include any medium that can store program code, like a ROM, a random access memory RAM, a magnetic disk, or an optical disc.
Names or numbers of steps in this application do not mean that the steps in the method procedure need to be performed in a time/logical sequence indicated by the names or numbers. An execution sequence of the steps in the procedure that have been named or numbered can be changed based on a technical objective to be achieved, provided that same or similar technical effects can be achieved.
In the foregoing embodiments, descriptions of the embodiments have respective focuses. For a part that is not described in detail or recorded in an embodiment, refer to related descriptions in another embodiment.
In embodiments provided in this application, it should be understood that the disclosed apparatus/device and method may be implemented in other manners. For example, the described apparatus/device embodiments are merely examples. For example, division into the modules or units is merely logical function division and may be other division during actual implementation. For example, a plurality of units or components may be combined or integrated into another system, or some features may be ignored or not performed. In addition, the displayed or discussed mutual couplings or direct couplings or communication connections may be implemented through some interfaces. The indirect couplings or communication connections between the apparatuses or units may be implemented in electrical, mechanical, or other forms.
It should be understood that in the descriptions of the specification and the appended claims of this application, the terms “include” and “have” and any other variants thereof are intended to cover the non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or modules is not necessarily limited to those expressly listed steps or modules, but may include other steps or modules not expressly listed or inherent to the process, method, product, or device.
Unless otherwise specified, “/” in the descriptions of this application represents an “or” relationship between associated objects. For example, A/B may represent A or B. In this application, “and/or” describes only an association relationship between associated objects and represents that three relationships may exist. For example, A and/or B may represent the following three cases: Only A exists, both A and B exist, and only B exists. A and B may be singular or plural.
In addition, in the descriptions of this application, unless otherwise specified, “a plurality of” means two or more than two. “At least one of the following” or a similar expression thereof means any combination of these items, including a single item or any combination of a plurality of items. For example, at least one of a, b, or c may represent a, b, c, a and b, a and c, b and c, or a, b, and c, where a, b, and c may be singular or plural.
As used in the specification and the appended claims of this application, according to the context, the term “if” may be interpreted as “when”, “once”, “in response to determining”, or “in response to detecting”. Similarly, according to the context, the phrase “if it is determined that” or “if (a described condition or event) is detected” may be interpreted as a meaning of “once it is determined that”, “in response to determining”, “once (the described condition or event) is detected”, or “in response to detecting (the described condition or event)”.
In addition, in the descriptions of the specification and the appended claims of this application, the terms “first”, “second”, “third”, and the like are intended to distinguish between similar objects, but do not necessarily indicate a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that data termed in such a way may be interchangeable in proper circumstances, so that embodiments described herein can be implemented in an order other than the order illustrated or described herein.
Reference to “an embodiment”, “some embodiments”, or the like described in this specification of this application indicates that one or more embodiments of this application include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described with reference to the embodiments. Therefore, statements such as “in an embodiment”, “in some embodiments”, “in some other embodiments”, and “in other embodiments” that appear at different places in this specification do not necessarily mean reference to a same embodiment, but instead mean “one or more but not all embodiments”, unless otherwise specifically emphasized in another manner.
Finally, it should be noted that the foregoing embodiments are merely intended for describing the technical solutions of this application other than limiting this application. Although this application is described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, persons of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they may still make modifications to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent replacements to some or all technical features thereof, without departing from the scope of the technical solutions of embodiments of this application.
