Abstract
In a navigation system, a data center is connected to a plurality of vehicles via a communication network. The data center receives video data and stores the received video data in a storage device, the received video data being data of a video captured by a drive recorder and provided from a first vehicle among the plurality of vehicles, the first vehicle having a destination that is set such that route guidance until arrival at the destination cannot be accomplished by the navigation device, the first vehicle having arrived at the destination. The data center transmits the video data stored in the storage device to a second vehicle among the plurality of vehicles, the second vehicle having the destination set in the navigation device. The navigation device of the second vehicle performs guidance to the destination by replaying the received video after the route guidance around the destination is terminated.
