To accelerate development and improve the quality of car navigation systems, we have built a system for automatic generation of evaluation courses. In general, the operation of car navigation systems is verified by driving tests using vehicles. The evaluation courses need to be designed so that inspection sites, such as underground parking lots, tunnels, etc., will be visited during the evaluation period. They should be circuits that include as many inspection sites as possible within a defined distance. However, as the number of the inspection sites increases, the number of courses that can be designed becomes enormous. This makes it difficult to create courses that meet all of the requirements. Hence engineers have spent a lot of time on evaluation course design. For this reason, automatic course generation has become essential for reducing man-hours.
