Problems solved by technology

This "destination management" feature, which links online maps to portable or in-vehicle navigation systems, addresses a major improvement in all navigation devices, but also introduces the possibility of new types of errors
In this example, the destination information is transmitted through a wireless connection or a portable media card, and when the navigation system receiving the forwarded destination does not have information about the destination, the possibility of error arises, so that the navigation system cannot provide guide to that destination
As a result, users may be dissatisfied with their navigation system

Embodiment Construction

[0024] I. Navigation system

[0025] figure 1 is a block diagram of the navigation system 10 associated with the computing platform 12 . Computing platform 12 may be associated with a vehicle. Additionally, computing platform 12 may be a personal digital assistant (PDA), a mobile phone, a personal computer, and any other computer. Navigation system 10 is a combination of hardware and software components. In one embodiment, the navigation system 10 includes a processor 14, a drive 16 coupled to the processor 14, and a non-volatile storage device 18 for storing a navigation application software program 20 and possibly other information.

[0026] The navigation system 10 also includes a positioning system 22 . Positioning system 22 may utilize GPS type technology, a dead reckoning type system, or a combination of these, or other systems, all of which are known. Positioning system 22 may include appropriate sensing devices that measure distance traveled speed, direction, hea...

Abstract

A method and system for managing differences between geographic database versions is disclosed. A user registers his version of a geographic database with a map management application and thereafter enters a destination on a graphical user interface. The map management application checks to see if data representing the destination is located in the user's version of the geographic database and a more current version of the geographic database. If the data representing the destination is located in the more current version but not the user's version of the geographic database, the map management application provides the user with options, including upgrading to a more current version of the geographic database.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for managing differences between geographic database versions, and more particularly, to a method and system for providing notifications and option. Background technique [0002] Navigation systems exist that provide end users with various navigation-related functions and features. For example, some navigation systems are capable of determining the optimal route to traverse in a geographic area's road network to get from an origin location to a destination location. Using input from the end user, and optionally from equipment that can determine the end user's location (such as a GPS system), the navigation system can examine various potential routes between the origin location and the destination location to determine optimal route. The navigation system can then provide the end user with information about the optimal route in the form of a guide that identifies the driving actions the end user ne...
