Description

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING TRAVEL ROUTE FIELD
The present invention relates to the field of mobile Internet technologies, and in particular, to a method and an apparatus for providing a travel route.
BACKGROUND
Currently, when traveling in an area, a user usually wants to know which spots have been visited and which spots have not been visited yet, and which scenes in which spots in the past the user needs to record. Currently, the user acquires such information according to memory or signs in the area. For example, when walking along a downtown street, a user usually relies on the memory or signs in the downtown street to know which shops have been visited and which shops have not been visited, which shops have articles that the user may want to buy, and which stores attract the user for a second visit. However, because memory is temporary, the user is not able to memorize such information for a long time； when the user uses signs in the downtown street to acquire such information, the user needs to approach the signs, which causes great inconvenience to the user.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The embodiments of the present invention are described below in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, throughout which same or similar reference numerals represent same or similar elements or elements having same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are  exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
To solve the problem that when a user travels in an area, the user cannot conveniently acquire information such as which paths the user has followed and which spots the user has not visited yet, the present invention provides a method and an apparatus for providing a travel route, which can effectively help a user manage previous routes and favorites of the user. Specifically, the method and apparatus for providing a travel route in the embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The present invention provides a method for providing a travel route, including: acquiring a travel map of a current travel scene； acquiring a travel route of a user in the current travel scene； and making a mark on the travel map according to the travel route.
FIG. 1 (a) is a flowchart of a method for providing a travel route according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 (a) , the method for providing a travel route may include:
S101: Acquire a travel map of a current travel scene.
For example, it is assumed that the method for providing a travel route in this embodiment of the present invention is applied in a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal provides a user with an application having a function of providing a travel route. When it is detected that the user starts the application, a geographical location of the current travel scene may be first determined by using the application, and a corresponding travel map, for example, an area map, may then be acquired according to the geographical location. In this embodiment of the present invention, the scene is not limited to a downtown street, and may also be a scenic spot or the like. For example, when it is detected that the user is visiting the Tiananmen Square, a scenic spot in Beijing, an area map around the Tiananmen Square may be acquired.
S102: Acquire a travel route of a user in the current travel scene.
Specifically, paths the user has followed in the current travel scene may be acquired. For example, when walking along a downtown street, the user may acquire which road the user has taken and which shop the user has visited in the current downtown street.
S103: Make a mark on the travel map according to the travel route.
Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, a spot on the travel route may be acquired, and the spot and/or the travel route may be highlighted.
For example, a user is currently shopping in a mall. When the user just enters the mall, and starts an application that is provided by a mobile terminal and has a function of providing a travel route, a travel map (for example, an area map) of the mall may be first acquired. Because the user just enters the mall and has not started shopping in the mall yet, currently the travel map of the mall is in a state shown in FIG. 1 (b) , where an arrow mark shown in FIG. 1 (b) represents a current location of the user. When it is detected that the user starts moving in the mall, a moving track or route of the user in the mall may be acquired, names of shops on the moving route may then be acquired, and the names of the shops and/or the moving route may be highlighted on the travel map. As shown in FIG. 1 (c) , the shops that the user has visited and the route that the user has followed in the mall may be highlighted, and the current location of the user is displayed in real time on the travel map. Therefore, the user can conveniently know which shops have been visited and which shops have not been visited, so as to help the user manage the route of the user.
In the method for providing a travel route in this embodiment of the present invention, a travel map of a current travel scene is acquired, a travel route of a user in the current travel scene is acquired, and a mark is made on the travel map according to the travel route. A previous travel path of the user is marked on the map, which enables the user to conveniently know which spots have been visited and which spots have not been visited yet, thereby helping the user manage a route of the user and improving overall travel experience of the user.
FIG. 2 (a) is a flowchart of a method for providing a travel route according to another embodiment of the present invention.
To help a user effectively record a commodity or spot that the user is interested in, in this embodiment of the present invention, a commodity photo or a spot photo that is taken by the user by using a mobile terminal may be presented on a travel map. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2 (a) , the method for providing a travel route may include:

To implement the foregoing embodiments, the present invention further provides an apparatus for providing a travel route, including: a first acquiring module, configured to acquire a travel map of a current travel scene； a second acquiring module, configured to acquire a travel route of a user in the current travel scene； and a marking module, configured to make a mark on the travel map according to the travel route.
FIG. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of an apparatus for providing a travel route according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, the apparatus for providing a travel route may include: a first acquiring module 10, a second acquiring module 20, and a marking module 30.
Specifically, the first acquiring module 10 may be configured to acquire a travel map of a current travel scene. For example, it is assumed that the apparatus for providing a travel route in this embodiment of the present invention is applied in a mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal provides a user with an application having a function of providing a travel route. When it is detected that the user starts the application, the first acquiring module 10 may first determine a geographical location of the current travel scene by using the application, and then acquire a corresponding travel map, for example, an area map, according to the geographical location. In this embodiment of the present invention, the scene is not limited to walking along a downtown street, and may also be a tour or visit. For example, when it is detected that the user is visiting the Tiananmen Square, a scenic spot in Beijing, the first acquiring module 10 may acquire an area map around the Tiananmen Square.
The second acquiring module 20 may be configured to acquire a travel route of the user in the current travel scene. More specifically, the second acquiring module 20 may acquire which paths the user has followed in the current travel scene. For example, when the user walks along a downtown street, the second acquiring module 20 may acquire which road the user has taken and which shop the user has visited in the current downtown street.
The marking module 30 may be configured to make a mark on the travel map according to the travel route. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the marking module 30 may acquire a spot on the travel route, and highlight the spot and/or the travel route.
For example, a user is currently shopping in a mall. When the user just enters the mall and starts an application that is provided by a mobile terminal and has a function of providing a travel route, the first acquiring module 10 may first acquire a travel map (for example, an area map) of the mall. Because the user just enters the mall and has not started shopping in the mall yet, currently the travel map of the mall is in a state shown in FIG. 1 (b) , where an arrow mark shown in FIG. 1 (b) represents a current location of the user. When it is detected that the user starts moving in the mall, the second acquiring module 20 may acquire a moving track or route of the user in the mall, and may then acquire names of shops on the moving route. The marking module 30 may  highlight the names of the shops and/or the moving route on the travel map. As shown in FIG. 1 (c) , the shops that the user has visited and the route that the user has followed in the mall may be highlighted, and the current location of the user is displayed in real time on the travel map. Therefore, the user can conveniently know which shops have been visited and which shops have not been visited, so as to help the user manage the route of the user.
In the apparatus for providing a travel route in this embodiment of the present invention, the first acquiring module acquires a travel map of a current travel scene, the second acquiring module acquires a travel route of a user in the current travel scene, and the marking module makes a mark on the travel map according to the travel route. A previous travel path of the user is marked on the map, which enables the user to conveniently know which spots have been visited and which spots have not been visited yet, thereby helping the user manage a route of the user and improving overall travel experience of the user.
FIG. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of an apparatus for providing a travel route according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the apparatus for providing a travel route may include: a first acquiring module 10, a second acquiring module 20, a marking module 30, a third acquiring module 40, and a loading module 50. The first acquiring module 10, the second acquiring module 20, and the marking module 30 in this embodiment are the same as those described in the embodiment shown in FIG. 5.
