Systems, methods, devices and computer-readable storage mediums are disclosed for correcting a compass view using map data. In an implementation, a method comprises: receiving, by one or more sensors of a mobile device, sensor data; determining, by a processor of the mobile device, compass offset data for a compass view based on the sensor data and map data; determining, by the processor, a corrected compass view based on the compass offset data; and presenting, by the processor, the corrected compass view.

Some embodiments provide a commute application that provides a first presentation of several stops along a route. The commute application also receives a selection of a stop from the several stops along the route. The commute application further provides a second presentation for displaying several different routes that traverse through the selected stop.

Some embodiments of the invention are directed to techniques for enabling a traveler to book a ride through a ridesharing service in advance. Some embodiments are directed to making it easy for a traveler to book a ride in advance, by allowing the traveler to specify a starting location, a destination and a time at which they would like to arrive at the destination, so that different transportation options and/or a pick-up time may be identified. Some embodiments are directed to techniques for reminding the traveler of ride details as the departure time approaches, and for updates to be issued to the traveler if travel conditions (e.g., traffic, weather, emergencies, etc.) threaten to increase the amount of time needed to travel from the starting point to the destination location.

An interactive system for use in connection with recreational vehicle usage includes a server system, including an off-road trail database containing trail data, trail condition information, and points-of-interest information, as well as a trip mapping system accessible by any of a plurality of riders, allowing a rider to create a route based on the data in the off-road trip database. The server system further includes a trail maintenance interface accessible by users affiliated with an authorized group to edit the trail data, trail condition information, and points-of-interest information associated with the authorized group. The server system includes a location data management system configured to receive location data, allowing a rider to publish location information to one or more other riders, and a user feedback interface configured to receive trip data from riders for publication, including information describing an actual route and user data associated with that route.

A navigation device includes: a memory storing map data of a map used for route searching; a traffic information receiving unit receiving traffic information from an external server; a matching unit matching a traffic event included in the received traffic information to the map used for route searching based on the traffic information; and a correction unit performing correction by removing a portion matched to an expressway of the map from a section to which the traffic event is matched on the map by the matching unit. The traffic event includes a closed event on a slip road, and the traffic event is matched to the expressway.

Provided are a computer system and methods related to a map display. A method includes but is not limited to receiving a request for the map, the map illustrating one or more locations; determining a status associated with at least one of the one or more locations on the map, the status being a function of one or more location interaction rules associated with the at least one of the one or more locations on the map; and generating a signal related to indicating on the map the status associated with the at least one of the one or more locations.

A system and method provides a route and turn-by-turn directions based on estimates of current and future traffic along the route. A client device may request turn-by-turn directions between an initial and a final location. A server may identify a plurality of routes between the locations. Each route of the plurality of routes may be divided into route segments. For each route segment of a particular route, the server may estimate a travel time. The travel time may be based on estimated vehicle volume data generated from information received from other users vehicle Based on the estimated travel time for each route segment of a particular route, the server may estimate a total travel time for the particular route. The server may repeat this estimate for each of the plurality of routes between the locations and select the route with the lowest estimated travel time. Based on the selected route, the server may generate turn-by-turn directions and transmit the directions to the client device for display.

A navigation method, a navigation terminal, and a server is disclosed. The method in the embodiments of the present disclosure includes: obtaining, by a navigation terminal, first navigation information; generating, by the navigation terminal, a first navigation route according to the first navigation information; sending, by the navigation terminal, information about the first navigation route to a server; receiving, by the navigation terminal, second navigation information sent by the server, where the second navigation information includes a real-time route parameter of the first navigation route; and when the real-time route parameter of the first navigation route satisfies a preset condition, effectuating, by the navigation terminal, a navigation window to pop up or automatically adjusting content presented in a navigation window.

Forecasting a mobile body distribution situation after a prescribed time by forecasting an excursion action of a mobile body on the basis of an inter-facility movement correlation of the mobile body. A server system includes an inter-facility movement computation part for computing a facility staying time estimate, an inter-facility movement time estimate, and an inter-facility movement correlation on the basis of a trend in past position information from the mobile body, a plurality of pieces of facility information, and map information wherein a road map is included; a receiving part for receiving present position information of a plurality of the mobile bodies; and a mobile body distribution situation forecast part for forecasting the distribution situation of the mobile bodies after a prescribed time on the basis of the inter-facility movement correlation and the present position information of the plurality of mobile bodies.

Systems and methods are provided for updating vehicle navigation guidance systems. The methods may comprise receiving an audible emergency broadcast, and scanning the audible emergency broadcast for a plurality of predetermined key terms. Upon detecting a presence of at least one of the plurality of predetermined key terms, the method may include analyzing an additional portion of the audible emergency broadcast for vehicular traffic information. The method includes determining at least one incident location to have a potential of being affected by the vehicular traffic information. The method may include providing an update, alert, or information related to the vehicular traffic information to at least one vehicle within a certain distance to the incident location, or to at least one vehicle currently routed through the incident location.
