A method of generating a junction view is disclosed. The method includes, in at least one embodiment:&#x2014;acquiring a first junction from a map database;&#x2014;acquiring a second junction from the map database, wherein the first and second junction are connected by way of an intermediate road segment;&#x2014;determining a characteristic of the intermediate road segment between the first and second junction from the map database; and&#x2014;if the characteristic of the road segment applies to a predefined condition:&#x2014;adjusting the road geometry resulting in a shorter intermediate road segment; and&#x2014;generating the junction view image visualizing the first and second junction using the shorter intermediate road segment. At least one embodiment of the method provides a solution to visualize in one image two decision points which will follow each other in a short time when traveling through the two decision points, i.e. two junctions.
