    Abstract :

    The correct and timely update of road map databases is important in many Geographic Information System (GIS) applications for navigation information (distance, speed, direction etc) , traffic management, urban planning, road monitoring etc. Road map detection is one of the great application in which researchers are showing interest to detect the new built road and update database to help people. In this paper we have presented a road map detection technique using snakes counter model which is based on junction point . As we know that large number of vehicles positioning systems are already available in market and most of them are GPS based systems. But the reliability is still in problem. In urban areas GPS is difficult to use due to satellite signal blockage and multipath effects caused by surrounding buildings. In this paper we will introduce new technique based on intersection points of road called as juction point baesd on snakes counter model. This technique is used to improve the integrity and reliability of map matching technique.
