Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009056085A1] The invention relates to a method, according to which maneuvering instructions are output (09) for the user of a navigation system (10). For the schematic graphical illustration of a maneuvering instruction at an intersection, the position geometry of the road segments and junctions associated with the intersection are analyzed and a schematic maneuvering view (11) is computed. In order to illustrate the intersection, to this end predefined illustration elements (01-08) are loaded from a database as a function of the result of the analysis, and/or illustration elements (a) that are individually dependent on the position geometry are computed.
