Abstract:

A network system determines and remediates dissimilarities between a digital map and trace data of a road network in an area as service providers and service requesters coordinate service using the road network in the area. To determine dissimilarities the network system can select and convert a digital map, aggregate received trace data into trace data accurately representing the road network in the area, generate a visualization of the dissimilarities, and remediate the dissimilarities using a variety of methods. A first remediation method includes verifying the dissimilarity using a single service provider, a second method includes verifying the dissimilarity leveraging multiple service providers, and a third method modifies the methods used to determine dissimilarities. After remediation, the network system can generate a map of the area that accurately represents the road network in the area.
