1. A method of generating maps in a navigation apparatus, comprising:
- generating a first map corresponding to a first code with a controller of the navigation apparatus;
displaying the first map on a display of the navigation apparatus; and
generating a second map including a starting point and an ending point including a plurality of second codes representing a plurality of links from the starting point to the ending point with the controller and displaying the second map on the display, the second map being different than the first map,wherein the first code represents a current position a vehicle is located,wherein when a particular link among the plurality of links is selected, the method generates a third map corresponding to a third code with the controller and displaying the third map on the display,wherein the third map is a detailed map of the selected particular link and includes information detailing traffic congestion conditions in front of the current position of the vehicle which has not been traveled by the vehicle,wherein the first map is a map of a first region, and the second map is a map illustrating the starting point in the first region or a second region and the ending point in the first region, the second region or a third region, andwherein the first region, the second region and the third region correspond to a first state or country, a second state or country and a third state or country, respectively.

9. A navigation apparatus, comprising:
-
a controller configured to generate a first map corresponding to a first code, and to generate a second map including a starting point and an ending point including a plurality of second codes representing a plurality of links from the starting point to the ending point, the second map being different than the first map; and a display configured to display the first and second maps, wherein the first code represents a current position of a vehicle including the navigation apparatus, wherein when a particular link among the plurality of links is selected, the controller generates a third map corresponding to a third code, and the display displays the third map, wherein the third map is a detailed map of the respective selected link and includes information detailing congestion traffic conditions in front of the current position of the vehicle which has not been traveled by the vehicle, wherein the first map is a map of a first region, and the second map is a map illustrating the starting point in the first region or a second region and the ending point in the first region, the second region or a third region, and wherein the first region, the second region and the third region correspond to a first state or country, a second state or country and a third state or country, respectively. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
