Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for detecting crosswalk locations. Crosswalk locations can be detected by determining at least two painted lines on a road surface, and then combining the at least two painted lines on the road surface into a grouping of related elements. The grouping of related elements can be classified into a crosswalk (or in some embodiments a type of crosswalk) based on attributes of the grouping of related elements, where the attributes of the grouping of the elements includes a distance between the at least two painted lines, and an orientation of the grouping of related elements on the road surface.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for detecting a pavement marking around an autonomous vehicle, comparing the detected pavement marking with a pavement marking present in a semantic data map, determining whether a change has occurred between the detected pavement marking and the pavement marking present in the semantic data map, and updating the semantic data map based on the determining of whether the change has occurred between the detected pavement marking and the pavement marking present in the semantic data map.

Abstract: The present technology provides systems, methods, and devices that can update aspects of a map as an autonomous vehicle navigates a route, and therefore avoids the need for dispatching a special purpose mapping vehicle for these updates. As the autonomous vehicle navigates the route, data captured by at least one sensor of an autonomous vehicle can indicate an inconsistency between pre-mapped from a high-resolution sensor system describing a location on a map, and current data describing a new feature of the location. The current data can be clustered together based on a threshold spatial closeness, where the clustering describes the new feature, and semantic labels of the pre-mapped data from the high-resolution sensor system can be updated based on the new feature described by the clustered current data.

As the autonomous vehicle navigates the route, data captured by at least one sensor of an autonomous vehicle can indicate an inconsistency between pre-mapped from a high-resolution sensor system describing a location on a map, and current data describing a new feature of the location. A type of the new feature can be classified in accordance with an analysis of a structure of the current data that has been clustered together based on a threshold spatial closeness, and semantic labels of the pre-mapped data from the high-resolution sensor system can be updated based on the new feature described by the clustered current data.
