GPS is a position detecting system utilizing the signals from GPS satellites deployed by the U.S. Department of Defence. The Mobile Navigation System uses input from three or more satellites and calculates the vehicle position based on the principle of triangulation. The positioning accuracy of the system corresponds to the error display of the GPS of about 30 to 200 meters.
Intelligent map matching addresses the following problems to achieve high accuracy in vehicle positioning. Position Correction for Elevated Roads Position accuracy is improved by detecting whether the vehicle is running on or under an elevated road. Position Correction for Parking Garages Position accuracy is improved by detecting whether the vehicle is driving in an elevated or underground parking garage.
