Systems and methods for autonomous vehicle localization are provided. In one example embodiment, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining, by a computing system that includes one or more computing devices onboard an autonomous vehicle, sensor data indicative of one or more geographic cues within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle. The method includes obtaining, by the computing system, sparse geographic data associated with the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle. The sparse geographic data is indicative of the one or more geographic cues. The method includes determining, by the computing system, a location of the autonomous vehicle within the surrounding environment based at least in part on the sensor data indicative of the one or more geographic cues and the sparse geographic data. The method includes outputting, by the computing system, data indicative of the location of the autonomous vehicle within the surrounding environment.
