Abstract
A method of operation of a navigation system includes: identifying a target location with a communication identification; detecting a current location for locating a device; selecting a candidate location based on the candidate location being closer to the current location than the target location where the candidate location is associated with the communication identification of the target location; and generating a travel route to the candidate location for displaying on the device.
Claims20
A method of operation of a navigation system comprising:
- identifying a target location with a communication identification;
- detecting a current location with a control unit for locating a device;
- selecting a candidate location based on the candidate location being closer to the current location than the target location where the candidate location is associated with the communication identification of the target location;
- and
- generating a travel route to the candidate location for displaying on the device.

A method of operation of a navigation system comprising:
- identifying a target location with a communication identification;
- detecting a current location with a control unit for locating a device;
- calculating a target distance from the current location to the target location;
- calculating a candidate distance from the current location to the candidate location where the candidate location is associated with the communication identification of the target location;
- selecting the candidate location over the target location based on the target distance exceeding the candidate distance otherwise the target location is selected;
- and
- generating a travel route to the candidate location for displaying on the device.
