Abstract

Automatic detection of road intersections is an important task in various domains such as navigation, route planning, traffic prediction, and road network extraction. Road intersections range from simple three-way T-junctions to complex large-scale junctions with many branches. The location of intersections is an important consideration for vulnerable road users such as People with Blindness or Visually Impairment (PBVI) or children. Route planning applications, however, do not give information about the location of intersections as this information is not available at scale. As a first step to solving this problem, a mechanism for automatically mapping road intersection locations is required, ideally using a globally available data source.
