Abstract
An image generating apparatus comprises a first obtaining unit configured to obtain a geographical position for which an image is to be generated, a second obtaining unit configured to specify date and time when a target vehicle traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtain travel data of the vehicle at the date and time; and a generating unit configured to generate a travel image including a scene of the geographical position and the travel data.
Claims13
An image generating apparatus, comprising:
- a first obtaining unit configured to obtain a geographical position for which an image is to be generated;
- a second unit configured to obtain user identification information for identifying a user;
- a third obtaining unit configured to specify, based on the geographical position and the user identification information, a date and time when a vehicle related to the user traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtain travel data of the vehicle at the date and time;
- and
- a generating unit configured to generate a travel image including a scene of the geographical position and the travel data.
An image generating apparatus, comprising:
- a first obtaining unit configured to obtain a geographical position for which an image is to be generated;
- a second obtaining unit configured to specify a date and time when a target vehicle traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtain travel data of the vehicle at the date and time;
- and
- a generating unit configured to generate a travel image including a scene of the geographical position, the travel data of the vehicle, and travel data of a virtual vehicle.
A method of generating an image, the method comprising:
- obtaining a geographical position for which an image is to be generated;
- obtaining user identification information for identifying a user;
- specifying, based on the geographical position and the user identification information, a date and time when a vehicle related to the user traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtaining travel data of the vehicle at the date and time;
- and
- generating a travel image including a scene of the geographical position and the travel data.
A non-transitory storage medium comprising a program comprising an instruction for, when the program is executed by one or more processors, causing the one or more processors to:
- obtain a geographical position for which an image is to be generated;
- obtain user identification information for identifying a user;
- specify, based on the geographical position and the user identification information, a date and time when a vehicle related to the user traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtain travel data of the vehicle at the date and time;
- and
- generate a travel image including a scene of the geographical position and the travel data.
A method of generating an image, the method comprising:
- obtaining a geographical position for which an image is to be generated;
- specifying a date and time when a target vehicle traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtaining travel data of the vehicle at the date and time;
- and
- generating a travel image including a scene of the geographical position, the travel data of the vehicle, and travel data of a virtual vehicle.
A non-transitory storage medium comprising a program comprising an instruction for, when the program is executed by one or more processors, causing the one or more processors to:
- obtain a geographical position for which an image is to be generated;
- specify a date and time when a target vehicle traveled through the geographical position in a past and obtain travel data of the vehicle at the date and time;
- and
