Navigation system and method for providing a navigational route
First Claim
1. A method for providing navigational routing, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining, at a controller, a first route from a first location to a second location, the determination of the first route using a first set of routing rules following standard traffic conventions for civilian vehicles;
determining, at the controller, a second route from the first location to the second location, the determination of the second route using a second set of routing rules applicable to a public safety vehicle, the second set of routing rules different from the first set of routing rules;
accessing, at the controller, route information related to the second route;
comparing, at the controller and based on the route information, the first route and the second route;
identifying, at the controller, a preferred route based on the comparison; and
outputting the identified preferred route.

Abstract
A system and method for providing navigational routing. The method includes determining, at a controller, a first route from a first location to a second location, the determination of the first route using a first set of routing rules. The method also includes determining, at the controller, a second route from the first location to the second location, the determination of the second route using a second set of routing rules applicable to public safety vehicles, the second set of routing rules different from the first set of routing rules. The method further includes the steps of accessing, at the controller, route information related to the second route; identifying, at the controller, a preferred route based on the first travel duration, the second travel duration, and the route information; and outputting the identified preferred route.
