ABSTRACT:
Navigation apparatuses, methods, and programs set a reference point on a route, set at least one point on the route on the basis of the reference point, and set a region along the route, the region being set on the basis of the set at least one point and the region including the at least one point. The navigation apparatuses, methods, and programs obtain 3D map data corresponding to the region, generate a 3D movie which has a predetermined viewpoint on the basis of the obtained 3D map data, and display the generated 3D movie.
