Abstract

HD maps are an essential source of information for Automated Driving systems. However, the way these maps are currently created doesn't scale well due to high costs for the creation and maintenance of HD maps. One solution to overcome this is to estimate HD maps online by the utilization of on-board sensor data. In this contribution we investigate how such local HD map estimation approaches could benefit from occlusion/visibility information and the fusion of freely available SD map data. We rely on MapTR as exemplary reference approach for our evaluation.
