  • Publication number: 20220034679
    Abstract: A travel route generation system includes: a first collector that collects running location information indicating running locations through which a plurality of vehicles have run; a second collector that collects vehicle-related information related to the plurality of vehicles; a memory that stores the vehicle-related information in association with the running location information; a criteria inputter that receives inputs of screening criteria including a criterion regarding the vehicle-related information; a processor that generates a recommended running route according to the screening criteria and based on the running location information and the vehicle-related information which are stored in the memory; and an outputter that outputs the recommended running route generated by the processor.
