NAVITIME JAPAN CO., LTD.
A car navigation app specifically for large buses!
■What is Bus Car Navi?
This is Japan's first car navigation app specifically designed for large bus drivers, offering features such as highly accurate estimated arrival time display, route search considering vehicle height, width, and large vehicle restrictions, road plan creation and saving, and bus parking facility search.
① Register vehicle information for the bus you will be riding (up to 5 vehicles can be registered)
• Vehicle height/width/length
• Gross vehicle weight / Passenger capacity
• Vehicle category and highway toll category are automatically calculated from the above input values.
② Nationwide passenger car restriction information
Search routes considering traffic information
• Road closures for large passenger vehicles: Approximately 50,000 locations
• Various large vehicle restrictions such as vehicle height/width: Approximately 86,000 locations
• Traffic information uses VICS and probe information (*)
*NAVITIME accumulates approximately 10 million km (= 250 times around the Earth) of driving logs per day from various car navigation services. By analyzing the logs, the accuracy of route searches is improved.
③ Guiding you on safe routes for large buses
We collect regulatory data for large passenger vehicles nationwide and guide you on routes that large buses can use. Since the route is searched and guided according to the vehicle information of the bus you are driving, you save the trouble of researching drivable roads in advance, and you can drive with peace of mind even on unfamiliar roads.
■ Supporting bus drivers operating sightseeing bus tours!
Based on the technology developed for Navitime's navigation services such as Drive Supporter, CarNaviTime, and Truck CarNavi, we have added functions and various data for large bus drivers and pursued an operability suitable for business use. It supports not only large buses, but also medium/small buses, microbuses, and even passenger car-sized vehicles.
