Abstract
In a navigation system by which vehicle travel locations are detected by an angular rate sensor and a distance sensor and the detected vehicle travel locations are corrected so as to be displayed along a map road, the display errors are improved by matching a vehicle turn point behind a route judge area to a map branch point; a route judge area is adjusted according to route conditions to an adjacent branch point or detected travel angles or a distance between two adjacent branch points. Further, non-corrected vehicle location data are displayed only within the route judge area to remove unnatural vehicle location display.
