Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for positioning a vehicle. In some embodiments, the method comprises: acquiring an a priori position of a to-be-positioned vehicle at a current positioning moment determined by performing a strapdown calculation between a previous positioning moment and the current positioning moment; determining a map area for searching in a laser point cloud reflected value map; matching a reflected value characteristic of a projection area generated by projecting a real-time laser point cloud, to obtain a map matching position according to a matching result; positioning, using the a priori position in combination with observation data of a vehicle-mounted global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver of the vehicle, to obtain a satellite positioning position; and fusing the a priori position, the map matching position and the satellite positioning position to generate a positioning result of positioning the vehicle at the current moment.
