METHOD AND SYSTEM TO CLASSIFY SIGNS

A system, a method, and a computer program product for generating classification data of a sign. The method comprises obtaining map data of the sign, obtaining a map matched link and at least one parallel link associated with the sign based on the map data, determining presence data of at least one blocking link between the map-matched link and the at least one parallel link, wherein the at least one blocking link satisfies one or more of a heading criterion and a distance criterion. The method further comprises generating the classification data of the sign based on the presence data of the at least one blocking link.
