摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a map information providing device and method therefor capable of displaying the locational relationship between a vehicle and a target object to be a mark to a final destination in a large size on a monitor. SOLUTION: The target object is retrieved by a retrieving part 21 according to the location of the vehicle detected by a detecting means 13. In a locational relationship analyzer 22, the locational relationship between the target object and the vehicle is analyzed. In a scale computer 23, a scale is computed on the basis of the analyzed locational relationship and the mode of the monitor. Map information of the computed scale for displaying the motor vehicle and the target object on the same monitor is cut out and displayed on the on-board monitor 3.
