Abstract

Method and system for detecting passages by vehicle at a virtual gantry controlled by a GNSS system comprising an OBU in every vehicle to be surveyed by the system, said OBU receiving signals from satellites to consistently and frequently estimate positions for the vehicle, the method comprising the steps of: defining a virtual gantry in terms of a number of ordered passage lines across a road; determining intersection points from the intersection between the GNSS trace and the passage line; calculating a value representing probability of a true passage at that passage line; for each vehicle for which intersection points have been determined for at least two different passage lines, calculating a total probability value based on the individually calculated probability values; concluding of a true passage by the vehicle in question only if the total probability value is exceeding a predefined minimum value.
