Traditional maps used for navigation (like standard GPS) provide general routing, but offer centimeter-level accuracy. For intersections—the most complex and accident-prone areas of a road network—this involves detailed semantic mapping. : A tool used by engineers to programmatically
: Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is the core algorithmic process used to align LiDAR data and ensure the map's accuracy. Common Tools and Research : Self-driving cars rely
: By using intelligent roadside infrastructure, cities can create real-time HD maps that are more accurate than those generated by individual vehicles alone. Common Tools and Research
: Self-driving cars rely on these maps to "see" beyond their immediate sensors, helping them predict lane paths and understand complex signal patterns.
