Abstract: Systems and methods for authenticating autonomous vehicle travel networks are provided. A system can obtain map data descriptive of a number of segment attributes for a number of travel way segments within a travel way network. The system can obtain operational domain parameters for the travel way segments and generate an operational domain including a number of operational travel way segments with segment attributes that achieve the operational domain parameters. The system can compare the operational domain to approval criteria associated with a service entity to verify that the operational travel way segments of the operational domain comply with service entity policies. The system can provide a verified operational domain to an autonomous vehicle for use in traversing the travel network. An operational domain that does not meet the approval criteria can be modified to comply with the approval criteria before being provided to an autonomous vehicle.
