"Routing" is I think a fairly well-defined term meaning the more-or-less
mathematical process of finding some way through the road network from A
to B. "Navigation" might be less well-defined, but I'm using it to mean
the turning of that route into a sequence of steps for a human to
follow, either by text or voice.
