We address the problem of determining the path of a vehicle on a given vector map of roads, based on tracking data such as that obtained from onboard GPS receivers. We describe a method that is based on a piecewise matching of track segments to map features. A notable feature of our method is that it is applicable to a large class of existing methods. We discuss metrics for evaluating the output of map-matching methods and briefly describe our implementation of a map-matching system based on our methods.
