Abstract

The disclosure provides systems and methods for detecting and managing moving traffic obstacles. In embodiments, a database of historical and potential moving traffic obstacles is generated from vehicle sensor data. The database includes vehicle manoeuvre data and characterizations thereof. The database is used to map moving traffic obstacle locations such that driving aids and autonomous vehicles can account for such obstacles.
