A computer-implemented method for estimating a road geometry of a road upon which a vehicle is traveling and related aspects are disclosed. The disclosed embodiments provide a model-based technique for estimating a road model having an arbitrary number of lanes on a road as well as any entrance lanes (i.e. on-ramp or slip roads) and exit lanes (i.e. off ramps or off-slip roads). In more detail, the herein disclosed embodiments utilize a Bayesian approach to multi-lane tracking in various traffic scenarios, such as e.g. highway scenarios. The employed model-based algorithm estimates the lane center curves of multi-lane roads based on vehicle motion data (e.g. speed, angular velocity) and perception data (e.g. camera output, lidar output, radar output, etc.) that includes detected road features (e.g. lane markers, road edges, road barriers, guard rails, road markers, etc.) or other objects (e.g. other road users).
