摘要:
An analyzer of the invention adequately analyzes a change in road network by using probe information generated with driving of a vehicle. This analyzer determines a traffic amount of vehicles passing through a specified section included in the road network from a plurality of the probe information accumulated over a predetermined period. The analyzer also determines a discontinuity rate, which is a rate of incidents that vehicle locations are discontinuous in the specified section, from the plurality of probe information accumulated over the predetermined period. The analyzer detects a change in the road network, based on a degree of change between traffic amounts in two different periods with respect to the specified section included in the road network and a degree of change between discontinuity rates in the two different periods. The detected change in the road network can be used for survey of the road network. [Drawing selected] Fig. 1
摘要:
A route search system, a route search method, and a computer program capable of finding a more appropriate route for a user are provided. A probe center 4 collects probe information from vehicles 3 that travel across the country, and a navigation apparatus 2 calculates the link cost of a link on the basis of the probe information in the case where a search for a recommended route is performed (S2). The reliability degree of the calculated link cost is specified on the basis of the number of pieces of the probe information used to calculate the link cost of the link (S3). The value of the link cost, the reliability degree of which has been specified, is corrected on the basis of the specified reliability degree (S6). A search for a recommended route is performed using the corrected value of the link cost (S7).
