Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for anonymizing navigation data and generating an autonomous vehicle road navigation model with the anonymized data. A navigation system may receive data relating to a road section from a vehicle. The system may determine one or more motion representations associated with the vehicle and one or more road characteristics associated with the road section. The system may assemble navigation information relative to a first portion and relative to a second portion of the road section. The first and second portions may be spatially separated by a third portion. The system may transmit the navigation information relating to the first and second portions and forego transmitting information relating to the third portion. A server may receive the transmitted navigation information and assemble an autonomous vehicle road navigation model. The server may transmit the navigation model to one or more vehicles for use in autonomous navigation.
