First Claim
1. A navigation device to which a display device and an input device are connected and which has a control unit for performing navigation processing using user-provided data that is navigation information created based on a driving history of user'"'"'s vehicle, said navigation device comprising:
- a navigation information storage unit in which navigation information, including the user-provided data, is stored; and
a human machine interface unit that displays the user-provided data and navigation information other than the user-provided data separately on said display device, that displays a warning message, read from said navigation information storage unit, and a screen prompting for an input for selecting whether to perform navigation processing based on the user-provided data when an instruction for performing navigation processing based on the user-provided data is input from said input device, and that causes said control unit to perform navigation processing based on the user-provided data when an instruction for performing navigation processing based on the user-provided data is input from said input device, said warning message indicating, for each navigation processing based on the user-provided data, an inconvenience that might be generated by the navigation processing.

Abstract
A navigation device includes a navigation information storage unit in which navigation information, including the user-provided data, is stored; and a human machine interface unit that outputs the user-provided data and navigation information other than the user-provided data separately on an output device, that displays a warning message, read from the navigation information storage unit, and a screen prompting for an input for selecting whether to perform navigation processing based on the user-provided data when an instruction for performing navigation processing based on the user-provided data is input from an input device, and that causes a control unit, which performs navigation processing, to perform navigation processing based on the user-provided data when an instruction for performing navigation processing based on the user-provided data is input from the input device. In this way, a navigation system where user-provided data and official data are reliably combined can be provided.

5. A navigation method for use by a navigation device to which a display device and an input device are connected and which has a navigation information storage unit, in which navigation information is stored, and a control unit that performs navigation processing based on the navigation information, said navigation method comprising the steps of:
-
when navigation processing is performed based on user-provided data that is navigation information created based on a driving history of user'"'"'s vehicle, displaying on said display device a warning message, read from said navigation information storage unit, and a screen prompting for an input for selecting whether to perform the navigation processing based on user-provided data; and
in response to an instruction from said input device to request to perform the navigation processing based on user-provided data, performing the navigation information based on user-provided. - View Dependent Claims (6)

7. A server device for distributing user-provided data that is navigation information created based on a driving history of user'"'"'s vehicle, said server device comprising:
-
an input/output unit for inputting and outputting various types of data;
a driving history storage unit in which the driving history of user'"'"'s vehicle, received via said input/output unit, is stored;
a navigation information storage unit in which navigation information, including the user-provided data, is stored;
a navigation information generation unit for creating the user-provided data based on the driving history stored in said driving history storage unit;
a navigation information search unit that, in response to a navigation information acquisition request from a navigation device via said input/output unit, searches said navigation information storage unit for navigation information specified by the acquisition request;
a navigation information request processing unit that, if the user-provided data is included in the navigation information that has been searched for, sends a navigation information list, in which information for identifying the user-provided data is added to information on the user-provided data, to said navigation device; and
a navigation information download management unit that sends the user-provided data to said navigation device when a request to download the user-provided data is received from said navigation device. - View Dependent Claims (8)
