Abstract
Among other things, techniques are described for identifying sensor data from a sensor of a first vehicle that includes information related to a pose of at least two other vehicles on a road. The technique further includes determining a geometry of a portion of the road based at least in part on the information about the pose of the at least two other vehicles. The technique further includes comparing the geometry of the portion of the road with map data to identify a match between the portion of the road and a portion of the map data. The technique further includes determining a pose of the first vehicle relative to the map data based at least in part on the match.
