Abstract
A map display apparatus includes a display that displays a map viewed at a given angle for bird's eye view with respect to the ground; a touch panel that is disposed on the display; a determining unit that determines strength of touch of an object on the touch panel; a display controller that controls a display format of the map displayed on the display, based on a result of determination by the determining unit, where the display controller scrolls the map when the strength of touch is at most a given strength, and changes the angle for bird's eye view when the strength of touch exceeds the given strength.
