journal contribution

algorithm designed to support the navigational
functions of a real-time vehicle performance and
emissions monitoring system currently under
development, and other transport telematics
applications. The algorithm is used together with the
outputs of an extended Kalman filter formulation for
the integration of GPS and dead reckoning data, and
a spatial digital database of the road network, to
provide continuous, accurate and reliable vehicle
location on a given road segment. This is
irrespective of the constraints of the operational
environment, thus alleviating outage and accuracy
problems associated with the use of stand-alone
location sensors. The map-matching algorithm has
been tested using real field data and has been found
to be superior to existing algorithms, particularly in
how it performs at road intersections.
