Abstract :
We present a novel approach to dynamically generate high accuracy road maps through the statistical analysis of in- vehicle GPS trace data. Our approach opens a possibility to implement an optional system in a very economic way for mapping roads to support the applications in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). The results presented in this paper show the potential with respect to the map update technology.
