Method of providing vehicle instructions to a non-navigable point of interest
First Claim
1. A method of providing vehicle instructions to a non-navigable destination point:
- determining a bearing between the destination point and a current location point of a vehicle;
determining a proximity zone around the destination point;
selecting a navigable termination point within the proximity zone that is closest to the destination point as a vehicle path end point.

Abstract
The present invention provides a system, a method and a computer usable medium including a program for generating navigation instructions for a vehicle. This may be done by determining a bearing between a destination point and a current location point of the vehicle, determining a proximity perimeter with radius (R) of a destination point and selecting a termination point within the proximity perimeter that is closest to the destination point as the vehicle path end point.
It may also be done by determining a current location of a client vehicle on a route, determining a destination point longitude and latitude in a digital map database and by determining if a destination point is located in a digital map database.
It may also be done by determining a destination point proximity perimeter with radius (R); if it is determined that a selected destination point is not located in a digital map database and by determining a distance between each termination point and the destination point, if more than one termination point exists within destination point proximity perimeter;
It may also be done by determining the termination point within the destination point perimeter, with the shortest distance to the destination point.
