Method and driver information system for representing a selected map extract

Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to a method for representing a selected map extract on a display of a driver information system, wherein a map background and at least one map information are represented in different colours or gray values. For an ergonomic representation, the map information and the map background are adapted to one another In particular, the colour or a gray value of the map information, especially of a road, is adapted to the colour of the map background with a limited maximum colour contrast. Depending on the selected scale of representation of the map extract, thin structures of a map information are represented in a comparatively more intensive gray or colour than thicker structures.
