Abstract
A computing system includes one or more processors and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations. The operations include determining that a portion of an existing map is to be updated; obtaining a point cloud acquired by one or more Lidar sensors corresponding to a location of the portion; converting the portion into an equivalent point cloud; performing a point cloud registration based on the equivalent point cloud and the point cloud; and updating the existing map based on the point cloud registration.
