Abstract
A system having a resource-availability module configured to cause the processing unit to determine whether a resource scarcity condition exists in connection with providing map data to a mobile navigation unit. The system also includes a tuning-parameter module configured to cause the processing unit to, in response to determining that the resource scarcity condition exists, determine a tuning parameter to use in preparing map data to provide to the mobile navigation unit. The system further includes an encoding module configured to cause the processing unit to encode map data based on the tuning parameter, and a map-data-delivery module configured to cause the processing unit to provide or make available the encoded map data to the mobile navigation unit.
