Method of Transmitting a Traffic Event Report for a Personal Navigation Device
First Claim
1. A method of transmitting a traffic event report for a traffic event from a personal navigation device comprising processing circuits, positioning circuits, memory circuits, an input interface, a display, and networking circuits, the method comprising:
- the positioning circuits determining a position of the personal navigation device;
the processing circuits calculating a speed of the personal navigation device according to the position;
the processing circuits determining a street the personal navigation device is traveling on according to the position;
the processing circuits calculating a difference of a speed limit of the street and the speed of the personal navigation device;
the processing circuits displaying a traffic event report dialog in the display upon detection of the difference being greater than a predetermined threshold;
the input interface receiving traffic event data through user input into the traffic event report dialog; and
the networking circuits sending the traffic event report comprising the traffic event data to the server.

Abstract
In a method of transmitting a traffic event report for a traffic event from a personal navigation device, positioning circuits determine position of the personal navigation device. Processing circuits calculate speed of the personal navigation device according to the position, determine a street the personal navigation device is traveling on according to the position, calculate difference of a speed limit of the street and the speed of the personal navigation device, and display a traffic event report dialog in the display upon detection of the difference being greater than a predetermined threshold. An input interface receives traffic event data through user input, and the networking circuits send the traffic event report including the traffic event data to the server.
