Services under the brand name "NAVITIME", operated by NAVITIME JAPAN Co., Ltd. ("NAVITIME JAPAN"), " EZ Navi Walk" and "EZ Navi for passenger seat", jointly run by NAVITIME JAPAN and KDDI CORPORATION ("KDDI"), have added entrance data for large facilities in their services from March 18, 2010*1.

 

Previously, users were guided to a representative point for large facilities, which may not have always been the closest point. Now with multiple entrance information, users will be directed to the closest entrance along their routes making visits to large parks, shopping malls, and theme parks more convenient.

 

In case there are multiple train stations close to the facility, routes using the closest entrance from those stations will be guided.

 

*1: The data is currently available for a limited number of large facilities that have numerous access from NAVITIME, EZ Navi Walk, and EZ Navi for passenger seat services.
