**Abstract**

This study proposes the utilization of an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to correct the latitude and longitude of Global Positioning System (GPS) used in locating towed vehicle system for underground imaging. The input used was the collected data from a developed Real-time Kinematic Global Positioning System sensor integrated with Inertial Measurement Unit. Different ANFIS models were developed and evaluated. For latitude correction, ANFIS model with hybrid optimization trained at 300 epochs was chosen, whereas for longitude correction, ANFIS model with hybrid optimization trained at 100 epochs was selected. Both models achieved the lowest Mean Squared Error (MSE), the highest Coefficient of Determination (R<sup>2</sup> ), and lowest Mean Absolute Error (MAE). Moreover, selected best ANFIS models were compared to Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) models, but the results showed that the ANFIS models have superior performances. The selected ANFIS models were verified by testing on the collected actual dataset and the visualized map demonstrated that the corrected GPS latitude and longitude have significantly reduced error, indicating that the fuzzy system with neural network capabilities is a cost-effective and convenient method for error reduction in vehicle localization making it applicable to be integrated for capacitive resistivity underground imaging systems.
