Abstract:
A method to detect a roadway edge includes calculating a first likelihood of a roadway edge from an aerial image of a roadway by shifting a centerline of the roadway perpendicular to the centerline and overlapping the centerline with image gradients. A second likelihood of the roadway edge is determined using a vehicle telemetry fitting a probability distribution to telemetry points along the roadway. The first likelihood of the roadway edge and the second likelihood of the roadway edge are fused to identify a final likelihood of the roadway edge.
