Abstract (EN): Devices that offer positioning and route guidance depend on updated digital maps for correct functioning. Updating digital maps is a highly expensive and complex process so it became necessary to develop new ways to detect changes to the road network. Using GPS points gathered by users during their journeys, it is possible to compare the real road network with the digital map. This paper describes a methodology to detect incongruences of different road geometry, alteration of junction position, prohibited manoeuvres and traffic direction as well as a sample of the results obtained. ©2010 IEEE.
