This invention concerns a computer-implemented method for determining a number of lanes on a road. The method comprises receiving an image, the image being a photographic image of the road or an image derived from the photographic image of the road, carrying out an analysis of the image to identify lane dividers of the road and determining a number of lanes into which the road is divided from the identification of the lane dividers. The method may comprise determining a confidence level for the determined value for the number of lanes. Map data of a plurality of roads may be generated using the value for the number of lanes determined from the computer-implemented method.
