Methods and systems are provided for a vehicle towing a trailer. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving, by a processor, sensor data from one or more sensors of the vehicle; estimating, by a processor, a steering torque value based on the sensor data; estimating, by the processor, a steering angle value based on the sensor data; determining, by the processor, a trailer tongue value based on the steering torque value and the steering angle value; and generating, by the processor, a control signal to control the vehicle based on the trailer tongue value.

Methods and systems for estimating trailer tongue values

A system for determining and presenting visual representations includes a receiving module configured to receive a set of coordinates representing one or more geographic locations of one or more features of interest, and an analysis module configured to define a region corresponding to the set of coordinates, the region having an extent based on a level of uncertainty associated with the one or more features of interest. The system also includes a visualization module configured to generate a visual representation of the defined region and present the visual representation on a map.
