A feature mapping computer system configured to (i) receive a localized image including a photo depicting a driving environment and location data associated with the photo, (ii) identify, using an image recognition module, a roadway feature depicted in the photo, (iii) generate, using a photogrammetry module, a point cloud based upon the photo and the location data, wherein the point cloud comprises a set of data points representing the driving environment in a three dimensional ('3D') space, (iv) localize the point cloud by assigning a location to the point cloud based upon the location data, and (v) generate an enhanced base map that includes a roadway feature.

Systems and methods for enhanced base map generation

A feature mapping computer system configured to (i) receive a first localized image including a first photo and a first location; (ii) receive a second localized image including a second photo and a second location; (iii) identify a roadway feature depicted in both the first and second photos; (iv) generate, using a photogrammetry module, a point cloud based upon the first and second photos and first and second locations; (v) generate a localized point cloud by assigning a location to the point cloud based upon at least one of the first and second locations; and (vi) generate an enhanced base map that includes a roadway feature by embedding an indication of the identified roadway feature onto the localized point cloud.
