Abstract

A method for providing spatial information management and devices for performing the same are disclosed. A method of managing information of a spatial map according to an embodiment includes receiving a request for a service operation for spatial map management, performing the service operation for the spatial map management, and transmitting a response including a result of performing the service operation for the spatial map management to an entity requesting the service operation for the spatial map management, wherein the service operation for the spatial map management may include a create spatial map service operation, a get spatial map service operation, an update spatial map service operation, a delete spatial map service operation, and a subscribe spatial map service operation, and the information of the spatial map may include a spatial map ID, spatial map coverage, access control rules, a list of spatial map layers, and objects of a spatial map.

First claim

1 . A method of managing information of a spatial map, comprising:
receiving a request for a service operation for spatial map management; performing the service operation for the spatial map management; and transmitting a response comprising a result of performing the service operation for the spatial map management to an entity requesting the service operation for the spatial map management, wherein the service operation for the spatial map management comprises, a create spatial map service operation, a get spatial map service operation, an update spatial map service operation, a delete spatial map service operation, and a subscribe spatial map service operation, and wherein the information of the spatial map comprises a spatial map ID, spatial map coverage, access control rules, a list of spatial map layers, and objects of a spatial map.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the access control rules define an entity capable of discovering and accessing the spatial map.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the entity requesting the service operation for the spatial map management is a spatial map client or a VAL server.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
transmitting a notification to an entity requesting a subscribe spatial map service operation among the service operation for the spatial map management in response to detecting an event for the spatial map.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein
when the event is a change of an object in the spatial map, the notification comprises information about an addition, removal, change of location, or change of orientation of the object.

6 . A device for managing information of a spatial map, comprising:
at least one processor including processing circuitry; and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to, receive a request for a service operation for spatial map management, perform the service operation for the spatial map management, and transmit a response comprising a result of performing the service operation for the spatial map management to an entity requesting the service operation for the spatial map management, wherein the service operation for the spatial map management comprises, a create spatial map service operation, a get spatial map service operation, an update spatial map service operation, a delete spatial map service operation, and a subscribe spatial map service operation, and wherein the information of the spatial map comprises, a spatial map ID, spatial map coverage, access control rules, a list of spatial map layers, and objects of a spatial map.

7 . The device of claim 6 , wherein
the access control rules define an entity capable of discovering and accessing the spatial map.

8 . The device of claim 6 , wherein
the entity requesting the service operation for the spatial map management is a spatial map client or a VAL server.

9 . The device of claim 6 , wherein
the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to, transmit a notification to an entity requesting a subscribe spatial map service operation among the service operation for the spatial map management in response to detecting an event for the spatial map.

10 . The device of claim 9 , wherein
when the event is a change of an object in the spatial map, the notification comprises information about an addition, removal, change of location, or change of orientation of the object.

11 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the method of claim 1 .
