Abstract

Technologies for managing a world model of a monitored area includes a roadway server configured to receive LIDAR sensing data from a LIDAR sensing system positioned to monitor the monitored area and generate a world map of the monitored area based on the LIDAR sensing data. The world model includes data that identifies objects located in the monitored area. The roadway server may distribute the world model to automated vehicles traveling through the monitored area via a stream or in response to directed requests. The roadway server may also receive sensor data from the automated vehicles, which may be used to generate the world model. The roadway server may distribute the world model to other interested devices located in or near the monitored area.
