1. A vehicle event recording system comprising:
- a position sensor for sensing position of a vehicle;
an event detector for detecting a vehicle event;
memory for storing vehicle path data;
a controller for determining a vehicle path for a time period close in time to the vehicle event; and
an output for outputting the determined vehicle path recorded during the time period.

Abstract
A vehicle event recording system is provided which includes one or more GPS receivers for sensing position of a vehicle, and an event detector for detecting a vehicle event. The recording system includes memory for storing vehicle path data and an input for receiving site data at a location where the vehicle event is detected. The recording system further includes a processor for determining a vehicle path for a time period close in time to the vehicle event. The processor determines a correction vector based on site measurement data and further determines the corrected vehicle path based on the monitored vehicle path and the correction vector and generates an output.
