Zusammenfassung:A system for estimating the most probable path followed by a vehicle on a road network, including a device for acquiring a data element for locating the vehicle on the road network; a map of the territory through which the road network passes, comprising data indicative of the corresponding designated use of a plurality of areas of territory associated with the sections of the road network; and a processing unit arranged to assign an improved travel probability to a road section as a function of the designated use of the area of territory associated with the aforesaid road section. The system calculates the most probable path for the vehicle according to the improved probabilities assigned to the consecutive road sections. A method for estimating the most probable path followed by a vehicle on a road network is also disclosed.
