NAVIGATION SYSTEM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
First Claim
1. A method for operating a navigation system for a motor vehicle having an offboard data memory, spatially separated from the motor vehicle, having data packets, divided by region, of visual map information and a display arranged in the motor vehicle, comprising:
- selecting at least one of (a) data packets provided for transmission to the motor vehicle and (b) a sequence of the data packets as a function of at least one of (a) a resolution of the display, (b) at least one of (i) a chosen and (ii) an available resolution of data, (c) a location of the motor vehicle, (d) an assumed route of the motor vehicle, and (e) a bandwidth of a communication connection provided for the transmission;
transmitting the selected data packets to the motor vehicle; and
representing visual map information of the data packets transmitted to the motor vehicle by the display.

Abstract
In a method for operating a navigation system for a motor vehicle having an offboard data memory, spatially separated from the motor vehicle, having data packets of visual map information, divided by region, as well as a display arranged in the motor vehicle, a selection of data packets provided for transmission to the motor vehicle and/or their sequence occur as a function of the resolution of the display, the location of the motor vehicle, an assumed route of the motor vehicle and/or the bandwidth of a communication connection provided for the transmission, the selected data packets being transmitted to the motor vehicle (e.g., in the selected sequence), and visual map information from data packets transmitted to the motor vehicle being represented by the display.

10. A navigation system for a motor vehicle, comprising:
-
an offboard data memory, spatially separated from the motor vehicle, having data packets, divided by region, of visual map information; a wireless communication connection between the offboard data memory and the motor vehicle configured to transmit selected data packets to the motor vehicle; a display arranged in the motor vehicle and configured to represent visual map information of data packets transmitted to the motor vehicle; and a computation device configured to select at least one of (a) data packets provided for transmission to the motor vehicle and (b) a sequence of the data packets as a function of at least one of (a) a resolution of the display, (b) at least one of (i) a chosen and (ii) an available resolution of data, (c) a location of the motor vehicle, (d) an assumed route of the motor vehicle and (e) a bandwidth of the wireless communication connection. - View Dependent Claims (11)
