Abstract

A computer is programmed to allocate respective connectivity quality data of a geographic area to a first map or a second map. The computer is further programmed to assign one of a plurality of subsets of the first map and one of a plurality of subsets of the second map to a first vehicle, identify respective locations of the first and second vehicles and one of the first or second maps that includes the locations of the first and second vehicles. The computer is further programmed to send, to the first and second vehicles, a map dataset that is a result of applying an XOR function to (1) the subset of the identified map that includes the location of the first vehicle assigned to the first vehicle and (2) the subset of the identified map that includes the location of the second vehicle assigned to the second vehicle.
