PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To present map information appropriate for using conditions either as an in-car or portable device. SOLUTION: When a switching operation to an in-car mode or to a portable mode is made by a control unit 5, a working mode switching part 7 switches a drawing part 10 to the in-car or portable mode. The drawing part 10 uses map data stored in a map memory 4 based on a current position detected by a GPS receiving part 2 and corrected by a map matching part 8 to draw a map image containing the current position including map information of traffic control for vehicles when in the in-car mode together with a current position mark, or the map image containing the current position together with the current position mark without the map information of traffic control when in the portable mode. The map image is converted to a video signal, output to a display part 3, and displayed on a screen. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
