The method further includes: based on the first map data having been stored, generating, based on the stored first map data, a driving route and driving control information for the first geographic section; generating, through the object detection device and when the vehicle drives along the driving route through the first geographic section, second object information regarding vehicle surroundings; and updating and storing the first map data based on the second object information.
