Abstract
A system is disclosed for using speech recognition with map data. For example, a user could state a location. The system will recognize the words spoken and find the location on a map using an electronic map database. The map can be displayed such that the location is depicted. Alternatively, the user could state two locations. The system will recognize the words spoken, find both locations on the map using an electronic map database, determine a path between the locations and report that path to the user.
