Vehicle-mounted device includes an inertial measurement unit (IMU) (8) having at least one accelerometer or gyroscope, a GPS receiver (6), a camera (10) positioned to obtain unobstructed images of an area exterior of the vehicle (16) and a control system (20) coupled to these components. The control system (20) re-calibrates each accelerometer or gyroscope using signals obtained by the GPS receiver (6), and derives information about objects in the images obtained by the camera (10) and location of the objects based on data from the IMU (8) and GPS receiver (6). A communication system (18) communicates the information derived by the control system (20) to a location separate and apart from the vehicle (16). The control system (20) includes a processor that provides a location of the camera (10) and a direction in which the camera (10) is imaging based on data from the IMU corrected based on data from the GPS receiver (6), for use in creating the map database (12).
