Techniques are described to estimate orientation of one or more cameras located on a vehicle. The orientation estimation technique can include obtaining an image from a camera located on a vehicle while the vehicle is being driven on a road, determining, from a terrain map, a location of a landmark located at a distance from a location of the vehicle on the road, determining, in the image, pixel locations of the landmark, selecting one pixel location from the determined pixel locations; and calculating values that describe an orientation of the camera using at least an intrinsic matrix and a previously known extrinsic matrix of the camera, where the intrinsic matrix is characterized based on at least the one pixel location and the location of the landmark. -C 4d
