In order to provide personalized data for displaying on a map, the server device acquires location data about the user and identifies the location familiar to the user based on the frequency and the degree of user's visit to the location.The server device then provides a familiar location in the search results / suggestions and annotates familiar locations with a description of the relationship between familiar locations and users.The server device also includes familiar locations as Landes marks for performing guidance within the set of navigation instructions.Further, the server device provides a familiar location on the map display as a reference system if the user selects another location near a familiar location.Further, the server device includes a familiar location as an intermediate destination if the user requests navigation instructions to the final destination.
