Abstract

A comprehensive and satisfying route- guidance system is considered valuable for citizens and tourists worldwide. An effective route-guidance system is essential because of the sophisticated city formation and transportation system in India. For better utilization of route-guidance systems. It needs to be easy to use and informational but to be more sensible to give optimal route options in terms of low cost and low time in various situations (Such as climate conditions, traffic jam, road structure). This paper aims to comprehend the research trend in the route guidance system and easily observe the various technique of route guidance. Different impressive findings have come out of this study, supporting current and future researchers to evaluate and set their research roadmap. This paper also explains the existing approaches for route guidance systems in simple language, which will be fruitful for researchers. Furthermore, this paper also envisions the future of RGs, which may open up new research directions in this domain.
