Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A computerized method of generating a route 1000 from an origin position F 1 to a destination position 706 across an electronic map 700 comprising a plurality of vectors representing segments of a navigable route in the area covered by the electronic map 700 , the method comprising: (1) obtaining delay data indicating delays on vectors within the area covered by the electronic map 700 ; (2) calculating a first portion 1002 of a route from origin position toward the destination position 706 using a first routing method up to a predetermined threshold 1006 from the origin position F 1 , such that the first routing method uses the delay data so that the first portion 1002 of the route takes into account delays; and (3) calculating a second portion 1004 of the route beyond the predetermined threshold 1006 to the destination position 706 using a second routing method to further calculate the route to the destination position 1006.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A computerised method of generating a route from an origin position to a destination position across an electronic map comprising a plurality of vectors representing segments of a navigable route in an area covered by the electronic map, the method comprising: obtaining delay data indicating delays on vectors within an area covered by the electronic map; calculating a first portion of a route, from an origin position toward the destination position,…
