Navigation system and method for guiding speed limiting information by block
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for notifying of speed limit information for each block of a navigation system, the method comprising:
- maintaining a database which stores a start point and an end point of a speed limited block, and a speed limit for each block wherein the speed limited block includes a shadow area;
sensing whether a speed limited block exists in a front area while driving on a predetermined route; and
providing a speeding alert notification within the determined speed limited block when the speed limited block is sensedwherein the providing comprises displaying the speed alert notification on the screen of a map or notifying by voice repeatedly with a predetermined time period.

15. A navigation system comprising:
-
a database storing a start point and an end point of a speed limited block, and a speed limit for each block, the speed limited block being defined with a speed limit covering an entire nation wherein the speed limited block includes a shadow area; and a control unit providing a speeding alert notification, when a speed limited block is sensed while driving a predetermined route, while driving on a speed limited block, wherein the control unit calculates an estimated passage time required for passing through the speed limited block based on a start point and an end point corresponding to the speed limited block and the speed limit, provides notification about the speed limit with the calculated estimated passage time, and displays the speed alert notification on the screen of a map or notifies by voice repeatedly with a predetermined time period.
