SETTING DEVICE AND SETTING METHOD OF TRAVELING ROUTE

A setting device is configured to: determine whether a target route indicating a segmented route is curved based on map information; calculate an end-to-end distance from coordinates of a terminating end of the target route to coordinates of a terminating end of an arc in a direction of a coordinate axis in which a preceding segmented route extends; cause the entire arc to slide by an amount corresponding to the end-to-end distance in a direction parallel to the coordinate axis and in a direction from a terminating end of the preceding segmented route toward a starting end of the preceding segmented route; set the entire slid arc as a new segmented route; and change the coordinates of the terminating end of the preceding segmented route to the coordinates of a starting end of the slid arc.
