Abstract
A point cloud management system provides labels for each point within a point cloud map. The point cloud management system also provides a method to localize a vehicle using the labeled point cloud. The point cloud management system identifies objects within a scene using an obtained image. The point cloud management system labels the identified objects to register the identified objects against the point cloud. The registration of the objects is then used to localize the vehicle.
