Glossary
•Wide area map, detailed map
The wide area map is a map of a la rge area, and the detailed map is a
map of a small area. The scales of the maps are 1/20,480,000,
1/10,240,000, 1/5,120,000, 1/ 2, 560,000, 1/1,280,000, 1/640,000,
1/320,000, 1/160,000, 1/80,000, 1/40,000, 1/20,000, 1/10,000, and
1/5,000.
• Positioning
The quality of the GPS positioning is displayed in the top right of the
menu screen. The greater the number of displayed symbols, the
higher the precision of the GPS positioning. •
2D positioning and 3D positioning
GPS calculates positions using triangulation.
The distance to the satellite can be determined when the radio wave
from that satellite is received, and the current location can be
measured by receiving radio waves from 3 satellites.
However, because there is a margin of error in the GPS satellites and
navigation unit, positioning is performed in only the 2 dimensions of
latitude and longitude when radio waves from only 3 satellites can
be received. The precision will be lower in this case. When radio
waves from 4 or more GPS satellites are received, positioning is
performed in the 3 dimensions of la titude, longitude, and altitude.
3D positioning is more precise than 2D positioning, and it reduces
the margin of error in the vehicle location display.

Accuracy & error calculation
Regarding Precision Accuracy
Since the GPS satellites are controlled by the US Depar tment of Defense
they do have a very high level of accuracy, however a multipath due to
reflections from buildings and so on could cause errors to occur.
Regarding the Properties of the GPS Electro-
Magnetic Waves and Signal Reception
If there are any obstacles between the GPS antenna and the GPS
satellite, electromagnetic-waves cannot be received from the satellite.
It is also impossible to use GPS posi tioning in the following locations as
at least three simultaneous electr omagnetic-waves are necessary to
take measurements.
Also, if there are any obstacles around the GPS antenna,
electromagnetic-waves cannot be received from the satellite.
• In tunnels • If the immediate area is enclosed by
large objects such as skyscrapers

176 Navigation
Further Information
NOTE•Because the GPS satellite is in orbit around the earth, the reception status for
the electromagnetic waves changes depend ing on their position at that point
in time, even if your vehicle is in th e same place. Also, electromagnetic-waves
from satellites near the horizon can be easily influenced by surrounding
obstacles.
• At times, satellites under the control of the US Department of Defence will
intentionally drop positioning accuracy.
Regarding Errors in Current Position Display
The system displays the vehicle current position based on GPS
information and data from various sensors and road maps. However,
when the radiowave signals from GPS satellites are weak or when
signals are received only from two sate llites or less, errors may occur in
the position. Modifying or adjusting the system will not prevent these
errors.
• In underground buil dings and indoor
parking lots • In places with a lot of overgrown
trees and so on
• Under elevated roads • Roads at the base of cliffs and caves

Further Information
Regarding Vehicle Position Detection
Correction Using Map Matching
Map matching is a method of comparing information on the current
position acquired by GPS and so on, with the road driven up to that
point, and correcting the current po sition based on the most likely
road.
This unit uses information on th e current position combined with
independent navigation and satellite navigation and matches it to the
shape of the road to create the correction.
However, as it cannot avoid the error margins at the current position,
the current position may shift away from the actual position even when
correcting using map matching.
Also, the vehicle marker may shift if the map data and the shape of the
road being driven on differ.
NOTE
Because it takes a short time for operations to stabilize just after turning on the
unit, the vehicle mark may not immediately match the vehicle as it moves. After
driving for a while, operations stabilize, and the marker should match the actual
driving position.
Regarding the Accuracy of the Current Position
and Route Navigation
As in the following images, an accura te display of the current position
or route navigation may not be pr ovided, however this is not an
indication of a malfunction in the un it, but is due to road conditions or
driving conditions.

traveling up a steep hill.
