A model developed by Researchers at MIT and Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI) have developed a model that uses satellite imagery to tag road features in digital maps to help improve GPS navigation. Each tile is a separate graph node, connected by lines along the road. The CNN takes as input raw satellite images of target roads.

Driving in chaotic urban traffic can be as nearly as stressful as jumping out of an airplane, according to new findings from an Audi and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) study. For Audi, the research helps validate how driver assistance and connectivity technologies can help ease the stress of daily driving.
