Abstract
Custom geographic databases are created by analyzing a geographic database to determine database structure elements. The database structure elements may involve road attributes or points of interest. Database structure elements are then selected to include in a customized geographic database. A customized geographic database is created that includes the selected database structure elements.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- analyzing, with a processor, a geographic database to determine database structure elements, wherein the database structure elements comprise road attributes or points of interest;
- selecting database structure elements to include in a customized geographic database, wherein at least one database structure element is omitted from the customized geographic database;
- and
- creating, with the processor, the customized geographic database, excluding the at least one database structure element omitted from the customized geographic database.
1 more element
An apparatus comprising:
- a memory configured to store a geographic database and a customized geographic database;
- a processor configured to analyze the geographic database to determine database structure elements, wherein the database structure elements comprise road attributes or points of interest;
- a display operable to present database structure elements to a user;
- and
- an input device operable to allow the selection of at least one database structure element to include in the customized geographic database;
- wherein the processor is further configured to modify the geographic database to create the customized database comprising the at least one selected database structure element.
3 more elements
A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions that when executed are operable to cause a processor to:
- analyze a geographic database to determine database structure elements, wherein the database structure elements comprise road attributes or points of interest;
- select database structure elements to include in a customized geographic database;
- and
- create the customized geographic database from the customized geographic database comprising the selected database structure elements.
