Abstract

Provided are an apparatus and method for sharing and learning driving environment data to improve the decision intelligence of an autonomous vehicle. The apparatus for sharing and learning driving environment data to improve the decision intelligence of an autonomous vehicle includes a sensing section which senses surrounding vehicles traveling within a preset distance from the autonomous vehicle, a communicator which transmits and receives data between the autonomous vehicle and another vehicle or a cloud server, a storage which stores precise lane-level map data, and a learning section which generates mapping data centered on the autonomous vehicle by mapping driving environment data of a sensing result of the sensing section to the precise map data, transmits the mapping data to the other vehicle or the cloud server through the communicator, and performs learning for autonomous driving using the mapping data and data received from the other vehicle or the cloud server.
