It should also be noted that the terms “comprising,” “comprising,” or any other variation thereof are intended to encompass non-exclusive inclusion such that processes, methods, goods, or devices comprising a series of elements comprise not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or other elements inherent to such processes, methods, goods, or devices. Without more limitation, the elements defined by the statement “comprising one . . . ” do not preclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, merchandise or device comprising the elements.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that embodiments of the present application may be provided as a method, system, or computer program product. Therefore, the present application may take the form of an entirely hardware embodiment, an entirely software embodiment, or an embodiment combining software and hardware aspects. Moreover, the present application may take the form of a computer program product embodied on one or more computer usable storage media (comprising but not limited to disk memory, CD-ROM, optical memory, etc.) having computer usable program code embodied therein.
From the above description, it can be seen that the embodiments of the present application achieve the following technical effects:
1) In the position update method of the present application, firstly, the first positioning position detected by the GPS component and the real image taken by the photographing device are acquired, and then the first positioning position is updated and corrected according to the real image to acquire a relatively accurate second positioning position. The position of the target vehicle obtained by the position update method is more accurate, and the problem of low vehicle searching efficiency or difficulty searching caused by inaccurate position of the target vehicle in the prior art can be avoided.
2) In the position display method of the present application, the position of the target vehicle displayed on the display interface of the terminal is a second positioning position obtained by updating the first positioning position according to the real image, and the position is more accurate with respect to the first positioning position because the update correction is performed according to the real image. The problem of low vehicle searching efficiency or difficulty in searching for a vehicle due to inaccuracy of the position of the target vehicle in the prior art can be avoided.
3) In the navigation route display method of the present application, the navigation route displayed by the terminal is generated according to the current position and the second positioning position, and the second positioning position is obtained by updating the first positioning position according to the real image, and the second positioning position is more accurate than the first positioning position. Thus, the obtained navigation route is also more accurate, and the problem in the prior art that the navigation route is inaccurate due to the inaccuracy of the position of the target vehicle can be avoided.
4) In the position update apparatus of the present application, the first acquiring unit acquires the first positioning position detected by the GPS component and the real image taken by the photographing device, and then the updating unit updates and corrects the first positioning position according to the real image to acquire a relatively accurate second positioning position. The position of the target vehicle obtained by the position update apparatus is more accurate, and the problem of low vehicle searching efficiency or difficulty searching caused by inaccurate position of the target vehicle in the prior art can be avoided.
5) The vehicle of the present application comprises a GPS component 30 and a photographing device 20; the GPS component 30 may acquire a first positioning position of the vehicle, the photographing device 20 photograph a real image obtained, and the transmission unit 40 sends the first positioning position and the real image to a server. Subsequently, the server updates and corrects the first positioning position according to the real image to acquire a relatively accurate second positioning position.
6) The system of the present application can acquire the accurate position of the target vehicle by executing the method, which can avoid the problem in the prior art that the vehicle searching efficiency is low or the vehicle is difficult to search because the position of the target vehicle is inaccurate.
The above description is merely exemplary embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application, and various changes and changes may be made to those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be comprised within the scope of protection of the present application.
