Abstract
A vehicular system includes a measuring unit attached to a vehicle to detect a magnetic marker laid along a traveling road, a database storing position information of the magnetic marker, and a control unit that acquires the position information of the magnetic marker by referring to a storage area of the database. The database has stored therein position information of each magnetic marker to which a distance from a reference point on the traveling road as a starting point to each magnetic marker is linked. By referring to the database by using a distance traveled until the magnetic marker is detected after the vehicle passes over the reference point, position information of newly detected magnetic marker is acquired.
