Abstract

This disclosure relates generally to vehicle navigation maps, and more particularly to method and system for generating and updating vehicle navigation maps with features of navigation paths. In one embodiment, a method may include receiving a position of a vehicle and an environmental field of view (FOV) of the vehicle along a navigation path of the vehicle on a navigation map, extracting features of the navigation path from the environmental FOV, correlating the features with the navigation path on the navigation map based on the position, generating a features based navigation map based on the correlation, and transmitting the features based navigation map to a server of a navigation map service provider for storage and for subsequent use. The features based navigation map, when required to assist a navigation of another vehicle, may be accessed to assess the features of the navigation path and to provide the assessment to the other vehicle.
