  • Publication number: 20260227201
    Abstract: An apparatus for generating a precision map includes a communication device configured to receive a time-series image and space information that are associated with a surrounding environment of a vehicle. The apparatus also includes a memory configured to store the time-series image and the space information. The apparatus further includes a processor configured to generate a precision map based on the time-series image and the space information. The processor is configured to extract line information based on the time-series image, generate polylines based on the line information, generate the precision map for autonomous driving based on the polylines and the space information.
