SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR NAVIGATING BASED ON SCENIC QUALITY

Systems and methods for generating routes taking into consideration user preferences for scenery, in addition to or alternatively to time, distance, and/or cost are provided. User preferences for scenery during a trip from one location to another can be quantified and used to augment standard routing methods by giving weight to scenic quality. For example, a weighting triangle can be used, where a user chooses a balanced weighting of three factors, including scenic quality, before a route from the starting location to the destination is generated.
