Abstract: A system, a method, and a computer program product for generating updated map data are provided. The method comprises obtaining first sensor data associated with a plurality of first road signs within a geographic region, obtaining second sensor data associated with the geographic region, and determining a sign matching efficiency for the geographic region, based on the first sensor data and the second sensor data. The method further comprises generating the updated map data, based on the determined sign matching efficiency.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for predicting a roadway feature. A geometric pattern in a roadway network is selected. The geometric pattern comprises one or more first links and one or more first nodes. A similar pattern to the geometric pattern is identified that comprises one or more second links and one or more second nodes in the roadway network. One or more features for the geometric pattern are identified. An absence of a feature in the similar pattern is determined based on the one or more features for the geometric pattern. A notification relating to the absence of the feature is generated.

Abstract: An approach is provided for providing a ride-hailing/ride-booking service based on user disability data that minimizes pickup wait time. The approach involves selecting a pick-up location, a drop-off location, or a combination thereof by analyzing map feature data queried from a geographic database of one or more candidate pick-up locations, one or more candidate drop-off locations, or a combination thereof as a function of disability information associated with a user . The approach also involves providing the pick-up location, the drop-off location, or a combination thereof as an output to a user device of the user, a vehicle picking up or dropping off the user, a ride booking service, or a combination thereof .
