Abstract
Systems and methods for generating geographic data for map elements based on surfel data and motion data associated with a geographic region are disclosed. A computing system can obtain motion data indicative of movement of at least one object in a geographic region represented by a map. The computing system can additionally obtain surfel data indicative of one or more surface elements associated with a surface of a structure in the geographic region represented by the map. The computing system can identify an entrance of the structure based at least in part on a correlation of the surfel data and the motion data. The computing system can generate geographic data indicative of a geographic location of the entrance of the structure.
