Abstract
A navigation device and a method of operating the same are provided. Further, a method of operating a navigation system including a navigation device, a data server and an electronic device is provided. The navigation device includes a communication unit; a display; an input unit for receiving an input of data; a communication unit; and a controller for controlling operation of the display and the input unit. The controller connects to a data server through the communication unit, requests path setting information to the data server, receives the path setting information from the data server, acquires present position information of the navigation device, acquires a user moving path by reflecting the acquired position information and the received path setting information, and sets the user moving path as a guidance path. In this case, the path setting information is generated in another electronic device or the data server based on user input information input from the another electronic device.

40. A method of operating a data server, the method comprising:
-
providing a user interface to a first electronic device in order to receive an input of user input information having starting point information and destination point information and at least one of passing point information and essential passing segment information; receiving the user input information input through the user interface; acquiring moving path information based on the received user input information, wherein the moving path information is an entire path from the starting point to the destination point; forming path setting information having the input destination information and at least one of the passing point information, the moving path information, and the essential passing segment information; and transmitting, when a request of the path setting information receives from a navigation device, the path setting information to the navigation device. - View Dependent Claims (41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47)

48. A data server comprising:
-
a server communication unit, a server storage unit, and a server controller for controlling operation of the server communication unit and the server storage unit, wherein the server controller provides a user interface to a first electronic device for receiving an input of user input information that includes starting point information and destination point information and at least one of passing point information and essential passing segment information; receives the user input information input through the user interface; acquires moving path information based on the received user input information, wherein the moving path information is an entire path from the starting point to the destination point; forms path setting information comprising the input destination information and at least one of the passing point information, the moving path information, and the essential passing segment information; and transmits, when a request of the path setting information receives from a navigation device, the path setting information to the navigation device.
