Abstract

An abbreviation representing two sets of location information which is stored in a memory (3), is displayed in a combined form, on a display (4).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betrieb eines Navigationssystem für ein Fahrzeug gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs.The invention relates to a method for operating a navigation system for a vehicle according to the preamble of the claim.

Derartige Verfahren zum Betrieb von Navigationssystemen sind bereits durch öffentliche Benutzung in vielfältiger Weise bekannt. Als Problem ist das in der Regel für vollständige Ortsangaben zu schmale Display anzusehen. Bei Autobahnfahrten führt dieser Umstand in größeren Städten wie beispielsweise Braunschweig zu der Angabe "Braunschweig-Wat", wenn als angebotene oder gewählte Ausfahrt "Watenbüttel" gemeint ist.Such methods for operating navigation systems are already public Known use in many ways. As a problem, this is usually for complete View location information on narrow display. This fact leads to when driving on the freeway larger cities such as Braunschweig for the indication "Braunschweig-Wat", if "Watenbüttel" is meant as the offered or chosen exit.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, insbesondere für ortsunkundige Benutzer der an sich bekannten Navigationssysteme den Informationsgehalt der auf dem Display angebotenen Ortsangabe zu verbessern.The object of the invention is, in particular for users who are not familiar with the location known navigation systems the information content of those offered on the display To improve location.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst mit einem Verfahren gemäß dem Patentanspruch. In dem Navigationssystem ist also eine Steuereinrichtung für das Display vorgesehen, die erfindungsgemäß eine kombinierte Ortsangabe in der Weise zur Anzeige bringt, daß im Display die Ortsangabe zusammengesetzt ist aus einem die größere Stadt repräsentierenden Kürzel (vorzugsweise polizeiliches Kennzeichen wie BS für Braunschweig, WOB für Wolfsburg etc. ) und den - bevorzugt mit Bindestrich angeschlossenen - voll ausgeschriebenen Namen (in Langschrift wiedergegebene Zeichenfolge) der jeweiligen Ausfahrt bzw. des jeweiligen Stadtteils.This object is achieved with a method according to the patent claim. By doing Navigation system is therefore a control device for the display provided according to the invention displays a combined location in such a way that in Display the location information is made up of a larger city representative abbreviation (preferably a police license plate such as BS for Braunschweig, WOB for Wolfsburg etc.) and the - preferably with a hyphen affiliated - fully written names (in longhand String) of the respective exit or district.

In der Zeichnung ist die Wirkung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ersichtlich. Fig. 1 zeigt schematisch ein Navigationssystem 1 mit einer Namensspeichereinheit 2, einer Steuereinrichtung 3 und einem Display 4. Die Ausgabe auf dem Display 4 entspricht dem kritisierten Stand der Technik.The effect of the method according to the invention can be seen in the drawing. Fig. 1 schematically shows a navigation system 1 having a name memory unit 2, a controller 3 and a display 4. The output on the display 4 corresponds to the criticized state of the art.

Fig. 2 veranschaulicht die verbesserte Ausgabe einer kombinierten Ortsangabe. Fig. 2 shows the improved dispensing illustrates a combined geographic location.
