Abstract

The navigation device (20) acquires weather information along a navigation route to a destination from an information center (5), and calculates the degree of importance assigned to the weather information based on predetermined criteria and a determination mode and driving purpose input by a user. The importance of the weather information can be calculated by using an importance calculation table that defines the importance of the weather information itself or the importance of the weather information relative to the navigation route. The importance of the weather information is used to extract the necessary part of the weather information to provide the information to the user. Weather information extraction may be performed according to a certain criterion, for example, extracting weather information with a specific or higher importance level, extracting weather information with nth highest importance, and so on.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to weather information reporting devices, which are used to report weather information along a travel route. Background technique [0002] In recent years, various technologies for reporting weather information along a driving route set by a user have been disclosed. For example, Japanese Patent Document JP-A-H11-120490 discloses a weather information reporting device for using data (area data, weather data) sent from a service center and data detected by a detector on a target vehicle. Current location and driving direction, report weather information along the driving route specified by the user. The device displays a weather icon on a display unit, which represents the weather of the area to which the current location belongs and the weather of a specific number of areas to which the driving route from the current location to the destination belongs. [0003] The weather reporting device simply displays the weathe...
