A navigation system utilizing a warning generating apparatus is disclosed.
The warning generating apparatus includes a data receiving unit for
receiving route guidance information data and current weather/time
information from an external information center; a data analyzing unit
for judging whether warning data has been included in the route guidance
information data outputted from the data receiving unit; a sensor for
sensing a current travel speed of a movable body; a restricted warning
generating unit for receiving the route guidance information data having
the warning data from the data analyzing unit if the route guidance
information data is judged to include the warning data, and for
determining whether it will output a warning for the warning data, based
on warning generation conditions stored in advance according to a kind of
the warning data; and a warning/guidance output unit for outputting
warning information when the warning information has been transmitted
after the warning has been determined to be outputted by the restricted
warning generating unit.
