DECISION-BASED MAP-AGNOSTIC NAVIGATION ROUTING

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are provided for determining a navigation route. A route is requested by a navigation device between a starting location and a destination location. The route request is received by an external processor for analysis. A navigation route is determined by the external processor and its associated map version. The determined navigation route is then encoded with a sequence of path decisions along the route. The encoded navigation route is transmitted to the navigation device.
