Abstract
A map server acquires a position coordinate and a category of a POI. The map server sets a notice area at a predetermined distance backward from the POI in a traveling direction along a road. The map server distributes map data to a vehicle. The map data is a data set including a position of the notice area, a condition of a vehicle affected by the POI, and a category of the POI. The vehicle recognizes presence of the POI based on a fact that the vehicle has passed through the notice area indicated in the map data, and creates a control plan according to the category of the POI.
