Abstract

A navigation platform may receive information identifying an origin location and a destination location associated with an autonomous vehicle. The navigation platform may identify one or more candidate route segments for a navigation route from the origin location to the destination location. The navigation platform may receive, based on transmitting a query to a geolocation server, wireless communication coverage information for the one or more candidate route segments. The navigation platform may select, based on the wireless communication coverage information, one or more route segments, from the one or more candidate route segments, for the navigation route. The navigation platform may transmit, to the autonomous vehicle, an instruction to navigate the autonomous vehicle along the navigation route.
