Abstract

A method of operation of a navigation system includes: detecting a current location for locating a vehicle; determining a road type as multi-layered at the current location for identifying a multi-layer road structure; calculating a first average speed outside an intersection location; calculating a second average speed at the intersection location; determining a difference speed between the first average speed and the second average speed; and determining a road layer location from the difference speed for locating the current location along the multi-layer road structure for displaying on a device.
