A route planning method for a navigation system of a moving object. The method comprises planning and executing a first navigation route; labeling lane entrances in a road corresponding to a substitute navigation route according to a location of the moving object when traffic information is detected, and planning and executing a second navigation route according to the lane entrance.

A method for automatically creating points of interest by identifying geographic information on a screen of a portable navigation device. A first geographic information is retrieved from an information page shown in the screen of the portable navigation device and recognized by comparing with the first geographic information with a geographic information of landmarks stored in a map database of the portable navigation device. It is determined whether the first geographic information is in the map database. If the geographic information is in the map database, a first GPS coordinate corresponding to the first geographic information is obtained and stored as a first POI.

A method for adjusting displayed map using sensors is disclosed, applied in a navigation device. The method includes steps of: calculating a GPS-based rotating angle of the navigation device based on location information detected by a GPS module of the navigation device when a coordinate error value of the navigation device is less than a predetermined value; using a sensor of the navigation device to detect the sensor-based rotating angle of the navigation device when the coordinate error value of the navigation device is greater than the predetermined value; rotating a map on the screen according to one of the GPS-based rotating angle and the sensor-based rotating angle depending on the coordinate error value.
