Abstract
In a navigation system, particularly for vehicles, with means for position determination, a navigation terminal comprises an operating facility, a display facility, an announcement memory and a transmitter/receiver and is connected, at least intermittently, to a central computer. A navigation system with such a navigation terminal is particularly cost-effective since there is no need for data on the traffic network (road maps) to be stored in the navigation terminal.
