Abstract
A vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor to acquire point cloud information for each channel on a surrounding ground of the vehicle by using a multichannel laser. The vehicle further includes a communicator to communicate with an external server, and a processor to control the communicator to receive map data from the external server and to determine a position of the vehicle in the map data based on the point cloud information for each channel, acquired through the LiDAR sensor.
