Abstract
A navigation device includes an own vehicle position detecting unit configured to detect position information of own vehicle; a route setting unit configured to set a guidance route that guides the own vehicle to a destination on the basis of a first map including information of a traveling route and the position information of the own vehicle; a matching unit configured to match a position of the own vehicle as a first own position with the traveling route where the own vehicle travels on the first map on the basis of the position information of the own vehicle; a driving lane detecting unit configured to match the position of the own vehicle as a second own position with a driving lane where the own vehicle travels on a second map on the basis of the second map including information of the driving lane in the traveling route and the position information of the own vehicle; and a calculating unit configured to determine whether the second own position is included in the first own position. When the guidance route is set, the matching unit matches the first own position on the guidance route, and when the second own position is no longer included in the first own position thereafter, the matching unit matches the first own position on the first map on the basis of the position information.
