A navigation device includes a GPS receiver, map data including tunnel data and periodically acquires a vehicle's speed to provide guidance on the current position N acquired at the GPS receiver, and when GPS radio waves become unreceivable after the vehicle passes a tunnel entrance, calculates a travel distance according to a vehicle speed and a time T up to a branch, and continues providing guidance on the current position up to the branch. After passing the branch, the navigation device suspends guidance, calculates a distance La between the branch and a tunnel exit, which is shorter, and when GPS radio waves are not received even after a movement distance from the branch exceeds distance La, after passing the branch, determines a road whose distance is longer as the road being traveled, and provides guidance on the current position.
A terminal device that provides guidance corresponding to a current position on map data, characterized by comprising:
A guidance program on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for a terminal device that provides guidance corresponding to a current position on map data, the guidance program operable for causing a computer to execute:
