Zusammenfassung:A three-dimensional map is displayed in a bird's eye view with a stereoscopic effect of feature polygons by providing shading in an appropriate direction according to the gaze direction in a simulative manner. Shading wall polygons are set in addition to feature polygons in three-dimensional map data. The shading wall polygon is a virtual plate-like polygon provided vertically, for example, along a boundary of a feature polygon. When provided around the water system, the shading wall polygon is specified to be opaque on one surface viewed from the water system side and to be transparent on the opposite surface. The shading wall polygons are drawn along with the feature polygons in the process of displaying a map. The shading wall polygon is drawn in black, gray or the like only at a location where the surface specified to be opaque faces a gaze direction.
