A method for updating a localization of an autonomous vehicle includes receiving perception input data from a sensor of the autonomous vehicle and receiving map data including road lane information in a vicinity of the autonomous vehicle. The method includes processing the perception input data to extract perceived road lane information including a perceived x position, a perceived y position, a perceived z position, a perceived lane type, a perceived lane color, and a perceived lane curvature and processing the map data to extract map road lane information including a map x position, a map y position, a map z position, a map lane type, a map lane color, and a map lane curvature. The method includes calculating a transformation matrix from the perceived road lane information and the map road lane information and updating the map data and a localization of the vehicle based on the transformation matrix.
