Navigation device, and method for updating map data and navigation
First Claim
1. A navigation device comprising:
- a setting section configured to set a determination region, which is a certain geography range around a destination in a map specified by map data, the destination being specified as an object of a routing assistance in the map data;
a generating section configured to generate a new road, which is not registered in the map data, based on a moving track of the navigation device when a current position of the navigation device deviates from a region of an existing road registered in the map data;
a determination section configured to determine whether the set determination region includes at least a part of the generated new road;
a storing section capable of storing the generated new road; and
a new road registering section configured to register the generated new road in the storing section when the determination section determines that the set determination region includes at least a part of the generated new road,wherein the navigation device is configured to perform the routing assistance to the destination using both the existing road registered in the map data and the registered new road.

Abstract
A setting section sets a determination region, which is a certain geography range around a destination in a map specified by map data. A generating section generates a new road, which is not registered in the map data, based on a moving track of a navigation device when a current position of the navigation device deviates from an existing road registered in the map data. A new road registering section registers the generated new road in a storing section when a determination section determines that the set determination region includes at least a part of the generated new road. The navigation device performs the routing assistance to the destination using both the existing road registered in the map data and the registered new road.

8. A method for updating map data for a navigation device, the method comprising:
-
setting a determination region, which is a certain geography range around a destination in a map specified by map data; generating a new road, which is not registered in the map data, based on a moving track of a navigation device when a current position of the navigation device deviates from a region of an existing road registered in the map data; determining whether the set determination region includes at least a part of the generated new road; and registering the generated new road in a storing unit in response to determination that the set determination region includes at least a part of the generated new road. - View Dependent Claims (9)
