Abstract

Examples disclosed herein may involve a computing system that is operable to (i) identify, within a given period of operation of a vehicle having an associated sensor system for capturing sensor data, one or more times when the vehicle was driving in a lane having substantially-straight lane geometry, (ii) for each identified time, determine a respective measure of a lateral offset between the vehicle's associated sensor system and a lateral reference point of the vehicle, and (iii) based on the respective measure of the lateral offset that is determined for each of the one or more identified times, determine the lateral offset between the vehicle's associated sensor system and the lateral reference point of the vehicle.
