Estimating the term…
A navigation method involves a processor selecting at least one destination from a stipulated destination category containing a plurality of destinations (P1; P2; P3; P4) and calculating a route to the destination. In the event of a change in the location (V1; V2), the processor checks whether a new destination (P1; P2; P3; P4) from the stipulated destination category is closer to the changed location. If the new destination is closer to the changed location, a route is calculated from the changed location to the new destination and is output to a user. In this way, dynamic, automatically changeable destination selection is performed which takes into account the actual course of a journey route.
