Abstract
According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method may include obtaining map data of a physical area. The map data may include surface data included in the physical area. The surface data may include locations of one or more objects at the surface. The method may also include identifying a first relationship between the map data and sensor information used by autonomous-vehicle software of an autonomous vehicle for navigation. The method may also include generating a three-dimensional environmental representation that represents the physical area based on the map data and the first relationship between the map data and the sensor information. The three-dimensional environmental representation may be configurable as a simulation environment with respect to testing the autonomous-vehicle software.
