Abstract

According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method may include obtaining road data and general area data of a geographic area. The method may also include obtaining filtered road data according to a first degree of accuracy based on a first relationship between the road data and sensor information used by autonomous-vehicle software of an autonomous vehicle to navigate roadways. The method may also include obtaining filtered general area data according to a second degree of accuracy based on a second relationship between the sensor information used by the autonomous-vehicle software and the general area data. The method may also include generating a three-dimensional environmental representation representing the geographic area based on the filtered road data and the filtered general area data. The three-dimensional environmental representation may be for testing the autonomous-vehicle software.
