For road sign inventory and maintenance, we propose to use a mobile
system based on a handheld device, GPS sensor, a camera, and a standard
mobile GIS software. Camera images are then analysed via object recognition
algorithms which results in an automated detection, i.e., localisation
and classification of the signs. We present here the localisation
of points and regions of interest, the fitting of geometrical constraints
to the extracted set of interest points, and the matching of content
information from the visual information within the sign plate. From
the preliminary operational state of the vision based road sign detection
system we conclude that the selected methodology is efficient enough
to achieve the requested high quality in object detection and classification.
