Abstract
A navigation device includes: an intersection attribute determination unit 731 that determines a direction of a left/right turn at a guidance target intersection on a guidance route on the basis of route information on the guidance route; a display position decision unit 732 that decides a display position for a name of the guidance target intersection on a side opposite to the direction of the right/left turn determined by the intersection attribute determination unit 731 when viewed from an entrance link to the guidance target intersection; a drawing data generation unit 733 that generates drawing data on the name of the guidance target intersection; and an image data output unit 9 that causes a display device 10 to display the drawing data generated by the drawing data generation unit 733 at the display position decided by the display position decision unit 732.
