<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve various problems which occur with increases in the number of icons when displaying a plurality of icons on a road map screen. <P>SOLUTION: A control part acquires and stores facility information matched with search conditions input by a user from a database, performs the information selection processing of rearranging the facility information into prescribed order of priority (for example, order of distance from a current position of a self-vehicle), and extracts the facility information of a preset number (for example, 5) in the order of priority. An facility icon N indicating the location of the facility information extracted in this way is displayed on a road map screen displayed on a display device 9 (Fig. 4(a)). The number of icons to be displayed on the road map screen M is altered according to the user's operations of increasing and reducing the amount of information (Fig. 4(b) and (c)). Icons corresponding to facility information having low priority are deleted especially at the operation of reducing the amount of information. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
