Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for processing vehicle navigation information. A processing device may be configured to receive navigation information from a plurality of vehicles associated with a common road section; store the navigation information; generate at least a portion of an autonomous vehicle road navigation model for the common road section; and distribute the autonomous vehicle road navigation model to one or more autonomous vehicles. The navigation information from each of the vehicles may include first road segment information relative to a first portion of the common road section, and second road segment information relative to a second portion of the common road section. The second road segment information may include a motion representation for the vehicle and a road characteristic relative to the second portion of the common road section. The second portion may be different from and spatially separated from the first portion of the road section.
