Abstract

Described herein are methods of detecting and labeling features within an image of an environment. Methods may include: receiving sensor data from an image sensor, where the sensor data is representative of a first image including an aerial view of a geographic region; detecting, using a perception module, at least one vehicle within the image of the geographic region; identifying an area around the at least one vehicle as a road segment in response to detecting the at least one vehicle; based on the identification of the area around the vehicle as a road segment, identifying features within the area as road features based on a context of the area; generating a map update for the road features of the road segment; and causing a map database to be updated with the road features of the road segment.
