==Original Abstract Submitted==

Systems, methods, and apparatus are provided for compensating for an observation error when estimating a course of a road in an environment of a vehicle. A state function is obtained for mapping the estimated course of the road. Environment measurement data of the environment of the vehicle is obtained. Information about the observation error is captured. A transform is determined by transforming the state function or the environment measurement data based on the captured information about the observation error to compensate for the observation error. The estimated course of the road is adapted using the transform.
