Abstract

En 中文
Ensuring the correctness of road network data is critical for navigation, traffic control and urban planning. Errors like missing roads and absent connections can hinder its quality. Trajectory data emerges as a cost-effective source to uncover such errors. Existing methods often analyze the mismatches between trajectories and road networks to identify specific errors. They heavily rely on manually established rules and fail to fully leverage the diverse patterns of trajectories and the underlying road network structure. The article introduces a sequential classification approach to detect diverse road network errors. It starts with partial map matching (PMM) to associate trajectories with a road network, allowing unmatched portions. Context features are subsequently extracted by encoding patterns in the map matching (MM) outputs, raw trajectories and road network. Finally, a bidirectional recurrent neural network (BiRNN) model is trained to identify the network error category for each trajectory point. Experiments were performed on detecting errors in OpenStreetMap (OSM) road network with a real-world trajectory dataset. It demonstrates that the proposed method achieves accuracy over 96%, significantly surpassing four baselines. An ablation study confirms the necessity of considering different types of context features. This method advances error detection by effectively utilizing trajectories in identifying diverse network errors.
