A novel approach to maintaining accurate maps is proposed by analyzing Machine Learning (ML) techniques applied to updating OpenStreetMap. The current manual map production and crowdsourced mapping methods struggle to keep pace with rapid urban changes, leading to time-consuming and error-prone updates. To automate the end-to-end map updating process, this paper investigates ML approaches used by tech giants like Google and Microsoft. By analyzing the state-of-the-art in this field, research gaps are identified, and DeepMapper is introduced as a practical solution for advancing online map updating.

Maps need to be updated quickly and accurately to support urban planning, navigation, and emergency response. Right now, making maps manually or using crowdsourced methods takes too long and can be wrong. To fix this, scientists are looking at how machine learning (ML) works with OpenStreetMap. This paper looks at the ML approaches used by big tech companies like Google and Microsoft to see what they can learn from them.
