Abstract: Method and system for accurate vehicle navigation and tracking within a selected lane on a roadway or a waterway. A location determination (LD) receiver, carried on the vehicle, receives LD signals from satellite-based LD signal sources, receives LD signal correction information from one or more other wide area LD correction sources, estimates a corrected vehicle location (good to within 10-50 cm) and velocity (optional) relative to one or more lane boundaries that define the selected lane, and displays vehicle location and velocity within the lane. When the vehicle approaches a lane boundary too quickly, or is too close to the lane boundary, an alarm signal or other control mechanism can be activated. The LD correction information is delivered to the LD receiver via a channel of suitable bandwidth. The system can also be used to map and store lane boundary coordinates for selected segments of a roadway or waterway.
