Abstract: A method for making it possible to set the link between all the types of vehicles and roads with the rolling limits on the roadway is described. This setting can be established from the existing road data bases and from the characteristics of the known vehicles. This method is capable of determining the vehicle rolling limits. A device which can be fitted on any vehicle and capable of implementing the method according to the invention is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of constructing a digital model of a road, includes the steps of acquiring a first set of data relating to the geometry of the road via a differential global positioning system (DGPS), acquiring a second set of data relating to the geometry of the road via a hybridized inertial unit with a global positioning system (GPS), indexing the values of the first and second sets of data by determining their confidence level, discarding the values of the first and second sets of data below a predefined confidence level in order to obtain a first and second set of corrected data, and aggregating the data of the first and second sets of corrected data in order to obtain the digital model of the road. The applicable to the fields of road cartography for navigation and road management, for the creation of adaptive localized algorithms.
