THE MCP-MAUS INTERFACE FOR UPDATING PARTIAL MAP

Telematics, one of the so-called New Growth Engine of IT839, is a leading IT service where wireless internet service represented by information and mobility is extended to the area of transportations to provide Telematics service. The killer-application of Telematics is navigation system. Recently, due to the mass storage conversion, the performance of the terminal and mobile communications technology development, navigation system is also changed. It more and more develops into 3D in a preexistence 2D map. In the future, it is expected to include the remote sensing map. There is also the characteristic of all the information expressed in frequently a change partially happening. That is, POI(Point Of Interest) which is freshly registered or is deleted is many. In a preexistence, MCP(Map Contents Providers) offer the new version map by off-line monthly or quarterly. And a user wastes time and is inconvenient because of updating the total map by the off-line. Thus, in this paper, in order to resolve this, we describe MCP-MAUS(Maus Air Update Server) interface for updating only the partial map that was changed.
