Abstract

Generating a map associated with an environment may include collecting sensor data received from one or more vehicles and generating a set of links to align the sensor data. A mesh representation of the environment may be generated from the aligned sensor data. A system may determine a proposed link to add, a proposed link deletion, and/or a proposed link alteration, and receive a modification comprising instructions to add, delete, or modify a link. Responsive to receiving a modification, the system may re-align a window of sensor data associated with the modification. The modification and/or sensor data associated therewith may be collected as training data for a machine learning model, which may be trained to generate link modification proposals and/or determine sensor data that may be associated with a poor sensor data alignment.
