Abstract

A method for quantifying map errors includes receiving first map data and second map data. The method includes receiving a road topographic map. The method further includes dividing the road into road segments. The method further includes creating a plurality of bounding boxes for each of the plurality of road segments. The method includes creating a first map tile and a second map tile by filtering out the bounding boxes. The method includes executing point cloud registration to align the plurality of first data points in the first map tile with the plurality of second data points in the second map tile to determine a plurality of absolute offsets between the plurality of first data points and the plurality of second data points. The method includes determining a relative map error between the first map and the second map based on the absolute offsets.
