1. A vehicle reach area presentation device that is a server, comprising:
- a controller configured to;
divide a region on map data into predetermined unit areas;
obtain a start point of the vehicle inputted by a user, set the unit area in which the start point exists as a start area, and extract pieces of probe data including records of past travels by vehicles other than the vehicle of the user within a certain range from the start area;
set the unit areas including goal points recorded in the extracted pieces of probe data as reach areas and calculate energy consumptions from the start area to the reach areas by using the pieces of probe data; and
present data including a displayable map with areas reachable by the vehicle of the user by the map indicated to the user while changing display of the reach areas depending on the calculated energy consumptions.

Abstract
A vehicle reach area presentation device sets a unit area in which a start point exists as a start area among unit areas into which a region on map data is divided and extracts pieces of probe data including records of past travels within a certain range from the start area. The device sets the unit areas, including goal points recorded in the extracted pieces of probe data, as reach areas, calculates energy consumptions from the start area to the reach areas by using the pieces of probe data, and presents the reach areas to a user while changing display of the reach areas depending on the calculated energy consumptions.

18. A vehicle reach area presentation method, comprising:
-
dividing, by a controller of a server, a region on a map data into predetermined unit areas; obtaining, by the controller, a start point of the vehicle inputted by a user, setting the unit area in which the start point exists as a start area, and extracting the pieces of probe data including records of past travels by vehicles other than the vehicle of the user within a certain range from the start area; setting, by the controller, the unit areas, including goal points recorded in the extracted pieces of a probe data, as reach areas and calculating energy consumptions from the start area to the reach areas by using the pieces if probe data; and presenting, by the controller, data including a displayable map with areas reachable by the vehicle of the user by the map indicated to the user while changing display of the reach areas depending on the calculated energy consumptions. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
