The application of new technology has produced major developments in the field of route guidance systems. Several alternative systems are now being evaluated and the technical problems of route guidance systems now have a diversity of solutions. The application of large scale manufacturing will produce low costs for the hardware for these systems. Route guidance systems all require a database of some form from which routes can be calculated by either the system or the driver. The development of these databases is a major task and in many cases they will require constant updating. Relatively little attention has been given to route guidance databases and this paper briefly discusses the essential characteristics, development and maintenance of such databases. The paper concentrates upon databases for systems which calculate the route for the driver. Most of the points discussed concerning road descriptions will apply to databases for map display systems where the driver selects his own route.
