A system of highly detailed mapping data for correcting the data format and detail level of the map data adaptively to a specification of a distribution destination. The system includes a data supplementing unit for supplementing medium-/low-detail map data to make the map data highly detailed, an authoring unit for editing the map data adapted to the multiple specifications which differ at least in one of the data format and the detail level, and a database for accumulating the edited map data to allow distribution of the map data as versatile data. The system includes a reliability evaluation unit communicating with the distribution destination via information, and allowing evaluation of reliability indicating a degree to which the versatile data are adapted to the specification, and a reliability registration unit for registering the reliability in the database by associating the evaluation of the reliability evaluation unit with the versatile data.
