  • Abstract
    We propose a system for detecting a construction site on motorways, and subsequently track its individual lanes using Kalman filters. Beacons and yellow lane markers are extracted from color images and provide indicators for a construction site situation. Yellow lane markers are used in this case for tracking the temporary lanes at road works. When leaving the construction site, again white road markers are extracted to track regular motorway lanes.
