Road estimation device and method for estimating road
First Claim
1. A road estimation device configured to receive data including a core point from an external object, the core point being assigned along a road and being assigned with an attribute for identifying the road, the road estimation device further configured to extract a link pertinent to the road represented by the core point for estimating the road on a map, the road estimation device comprising:
- a map data input device configured to input map data including links each having an attribute corresponding to the attribute of the core point; and
a processor cooperatively operable with the map data input device, and configured toin a search region set unit, set a search region by using the core point as a reference point;
in a link extraction unit, extract a link included in the search region from the links of the map data which the map data input device inputs; and
in a road estimation unit, estimate the road represented by the core point according to an attribute of the link extracted by the link extraction unit and the attribute of the core point, whereinthe core point is transmitted with traffic information including traffic congestion information.

Abstract
A road estimation device receives data including a core point assigned along a road and assigned with an attribute for identifying the road. An input unit inputs map data including links each having an attribute corresponding to the attribute of the core point. A search region set unit sets a search region by using the core point as a reference point. An extraction unit extracts a link included in the search region from the links of the inputted map data. An estimation unit estimates the road represented by the core point according to an attribute of the extracted link and the attribute of the core point on a map.
