Providing guiding service by means of a wireless terminal

A wireless terminal comprising:

• means for determining its position information,
• means for storing supplementary data,
• means for associating the supplementary data with the position information of one or more route points, and
• means for transmitting position-specific supplementary data and position information to a guiding server.

A wireless terminal comprising:

• means for determining its position information,
• means for transmitting a request to a guiding server included in a guiding system, in which request the desired route information is indicated by a route identifier,
• means for receiving the route information from the guiding server, the route information comprising at least position information of route points on the route and position-specific supplementary data, and
• means for presenting the received route information to the user so that route information and position-specific supplementary data included therein are presented according to the position information determined by the terminal in places with which the supplementary data are associated.

A method of providing a guiding service in a guiding system wherein the guiding system comprises a guiding server to which position information of the first terminal is transferred, the method comprising:

• determining position information of a first terminal determining a route at route points of the route on which it travels,
• storing supplementary data to be used for guiding the route when the route is determined in the first terminal,
• associating the supplementary data with the position information of one or more route points in the system,
• transmitting the position-specific supplementary data from the first terminal to the guiding server,
• compiling and storing route information in the guiding server, which route information can be identified by a route identifier and it comprises at least a route formed by position information of the first terminal and position-specific supplementary data,
• transmitting the route information requested according to the route identifier to at least one, second terminal using the route, and
• determining the position of the second terminal and presenting the received route information in the second terminal so that said supplementary data are presented when the second terminal is in places with which supplementary data are associated.
