Abstract

A vehicular positioning method is provided for positioning a vehicle that is running on a road, where the road has a plurality of feature objects that have the same detectable feature and that are disposed along the road. The vehicle is provided with a system that counts a number of the feature objects the vehicle has passed by as the vehicle runs on the road, and that calculates a travelling distance the vehicle has traveled on the road based on the number counted thereby, an object length of the feature objects, and spacing between adjacent two of the feature objects. Then, the system displays an electronic map that shows the road and that indicates a position of the vehicle on the road based on the calculated travelling distance.
