Map matching
As mentioned, the positioning systems
used by this navigation system are
susceptible to certain errors. Their
calculations may, on occasion, place you in
a location on the map where no road
exists. In this situation, the processing
system understands that vehicles travel
only on roads, and can correct your
position by adjusting it to a nearby road.
This is called map matching.
With map matching
Without map matching
Positioning errors are kept to a minimum
by combining GPS, dead reckoning and
map matching. However, in some
situations, these functions may not work
properly, and the error may become
bigger.
• GPS positioning is disabled if signals
cannot be received from more than two
GPS satellites.
• In some driving conditions, signals from
GPS satellites may not reach your vehicle.
In this case, it is impossible for the system
to use GPS positioning.
