    摘要: When an update instruction to update “A” navigation map information and “B” navigation map information is inputted, a CPU initializes the storage area having stored therein no map information currently in use out of the two storage areas. The CPU then reads, from a CD-ROM, the latest version of the “A” navigation map information or the “B” navigation map information that corresponds to the map information currently in use, and stores it in the initialized storage area. The CPU then updates management information, starts use of the newly stored map information, initializes the storage area having stored therein the map information whose use is stopped out of the two storage areas, reads, from the CD-ROM, the latest version of the “A” navigation map information or the “B” navigation map information not currently in use, and stores it in the initialized storage area.

    摘要: When the navigation apparatus 5 performs a difference update on navigation map data 39 based on difference update data 17 distributed from a map distribution center 2, the difference update data 17 used in the difference update is stored into a navigation HDD 32, when the navigation apparatus 5 performs a total update on the navigation map data 39 thereafter, the navigation apparatus 5 performs a difference update again (S17) by using any piece of the difference update data stored in the navigation HDD 32 of which the version is newer than that of total update data. After performing the update, the navigation apparatus 5 deletes the pieces of difference update data 17 from the navigation HDD 32 that have been stored up to that point in time (S18).

    摘要: Map information distribution systems and methods store map information and version information for each road category of the map information stored in a navigation device, the version information correlated with identification information identifying the navigation device. The systems and methods receive the identification information from the navigation device and obtain, based on the received identification information, the version information for each road category of the map information stored in the navigation device corresponding to the stored identification information. The systems and methods extract, based on the obtained version information for each road category, differential data for each road category with stored map information of a latest version, and transmit the extracted differential data for each road category to the navigation device corresponding to the received identification information.
