The Car Navigation System(CNS) requires lots of memory and calculating time because it works on the large and complex digital map. And the traffic circumstances vary time by time, so the traffic informations should be processed if we want to get mere realistic result. This paper proposes an effective path searching algorithm which uses less memories and calculating time by applying directional information between the starting place and destination place and by using realtime traffic informations.

The more the function of Car Navigation System (CNS) is getting more various and high-grade, the more functions are necessary for a user to use simply and dearly from a user. But now the using CNS's a using circumstances is not satisfied with these requirements. In this paper, author analyzed the using circumstances composed of CNS to improve these problems and the function of a competitive company's products, extracted the necessary functions. Then author analyzed objected model and dynamic model by the objective modeling centering around Hyundai Electronic Company's HNK-1 COLD model mounted Hyundai Motor Company Equus vehide. In the Hyundai Electronic Company's HNK-1COLD model mounted Hyundai Motor Company Equus vehide, author analyzed the mental model of user used observation method the user behavior by taking video, and then studied all the functions and restructured the information structure, finally present the interface guide line of a user of CNS.

This paper describes a GPS/DR integration filter for a car navigation system. A new GPS/DR integration filter is derived for obtaining more accurate and reliable position data. The covariance analysis results and simulation results are shown for evaluating the performance of the proposed GPS/DR integration filter.

The Navigation Streets Map that directly supplies information for a driver plays an important role in Car Navigation System(CNS). Therefore, cause the compatibility, preference, visibility, and readability of the navigation streets map will be hold sway over driver's information acquisition, safety, and performance in CNS, it is important that designer's requirements should be analyuzed for ergonomic design of navigation streets map. Especially, there are differences between the topographical objects marking method and that of the general map in a navigation streets map. Because much information is marked in a narrow space, it is important that the text information should be done in navigation streets map. Also, because it is a important factor to mark the text format for the marking method of the topographical objects, the design requirements will be drawn out through the factor analysis for the text marking method. And when ergonomic designers are doing, this result will be basic research for developing driving simulator of CNS and it will be a ergonomic guideline of navigation streets map.

Two experiments were conducted to examine the relationships between the color structure and the user preference of a CNS (Car Navigation System) digital map in terms of HSE (Human Sensibility Ergonomics). In the first experiment, the user's preference of color structures were investigated from the subjects' self-designed digital maps using a CNS digital map UIMS (User Interface Management System): in the second, statistical relation models between the user's color structure satisfaction level and the color components of CIE (Commission Internationale de ι'Eclairage) of the real products were suggested. For each experiment, CIE L*u*v* and CIE LCH color space were adapted, respectively, because they have their own characteristics of perceptual uniformity which enables the color components to transform a linear function.

CNS (Car Navigation System) is the most compatible candidate among various in-vehicle information systems as a provider of ITS (Intelligence Transport Systems) information. It generally consists of remote controller, display, CD-changer, GPS receiver and so on. Among them, display is the most important and critical element of the HMI (Human-Machine Interface) suggesting the digital map to the driver. Therefore, it is certain that the display gives cognitive, physical, mental and visual workloads to the driver which are directly related with the driver's and road safety with the success of ITS. Until now, various human factors techniques have been developed and applied to estimate the driver's workload and to collect the driver's requirements of the CNS digital map, for example, mental workload assessment, visual activity analysis, cognitive analysis and so on. In addition to these kinds of techniques, this research performed the human sensibility ergonomics approach to directly investigate and evaluate the driver's requirements and sensibilities of the real products.

Most car navigation systems(CNS) estimate the vehicle's location using global positioning system(GPS) or dead reckoning(DR) system. However, the estimated location has undesirable errors because of various noise sources such as unpredictable GPS noises. As a result, the measured position is not lying on the road, although the vehicle is known to be restricted on the road network. The purpose of map matching is to locate the vehicle's position on the road network where the vehicle is most likely to be positioned. In this paper, we analyze some general map matching algorithms first. Then, we propose a map matching method using compensation vectors to improve the performance of map matching. The proposed method calculates a compensation vector from the discrepancy between a measured position and an estimated position. The compensation vector and a newly measured position are to be used to determine the next estimation. To show the performance improvement of the map matching using compensation vectors, the real time map matching experiments are performed. The real road experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed map matching.

We design level 1 traffic thematic map for common data structure. Level 1 means the road that can passing cars. If public office and private company use this form, they can save amount of money from overlapping update. And widely use of traffic analysis, navigation and traffic information system. For design common data structure we compared several data structure(traffic thematic map, ITS standard node/link, Car navigation map), and generalization these characteristic data. After generalization we considered about application parts. It can use of public part(traffic analysis, road management, accident management) and private part(car navigation, map product, marketing by variable analysis) etc.

Map databases for CNS (Car Navigation System) can be accessed quickly and compressed efficiently due to that these are usually recorded as in a PSF (Physical Storage Format). However, it is difficult to create and manage data storage based on a file-system. To solve these problems, DBMS needs to be combined with spatial data management. Therefore, we developed an embedded DBMS with which to store data and conduct quick searches in CNS. Spatial data could be easily managed and accessed using the compression method, Multi-Link, spatial index, and spatial division. In the result, the proposed embedded DBMS searched quickly and stably supported data management. If synchronization is applied in DBMS, it is expected to utilize the advantages of an embedded DBMS.
