    3. Navigation System Link Function


      1. The navigation system link function provides the navigation system with real-time information obtained from the G-BOOK center, offering more effective use of the navigation system for the user.

      2. The navigation system link function has the following functions:

        Function Outline
        G Route Search Searches for the most suitable route to the destination based on information about wide-area traffic congestion prediction.
        Partial Update of Map Database Partially updates map data in the navigation system by obtaining new road data or main POI data surrounding the current position or destinations from the G-BOOK center.
        Searching for POIs on the WEB Transfers POI information, which was searched for on the Mapbar site, to the navigation system. A found POI can be set as a destination or registered as a G-memory point.
        G-memory Point

        • When a POI is searched for using the contents of G-BOOK.com or a website, it can be registered as a G-memory point of the memory points in the navigation system.

        • By registering POIs as a G-memory point, a list of G-memory points can be displayed without connecting to the G-BOOK center.
        Facility Information Display Displays information about facilities which are not included in the navigation system.

    4. Other Function


      1. The telematics system provides another function in consideration of improving usability.
