Leuven.MapMatching

PyPi Version Documentation Status

Align a trace of GPS measurements to a map or road segments.

The matching is based on a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) with non-emitting states. The model can deal with missing data and you can plug in custom transition and emission probability distributions.
