Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method of generating a ground map. For instance, the present disclosure provides a method of determining relevant point cloud data for generating a surface topology over real-world geographical areas using sensor data, which may involve (i) receiving a first dataset from a first sensor, (ii) receiving a second dataset from a second sensor, (iii) classifying the first dataset by identifying characteristics of the first dataset that correspond to a ground surface, (iv) filtering the second dataset based on the classified first dataset, and (v) generating a ground map from the filtered second dataset.
