Abstract
An apparatus, or corresponding method, for building or updating a map database is described. In one example, the apparatus includes an image correlation module, a training device, and a learned model or neural network. The image correlation module is configured to correlate a first aerial image and terrestrial sensor data collected at a terrestrial vehicle based on at least one control point from the terrestrial data. The learned model training device is configured to define a learned model based using at least one control point from the terrestrial sensor data as ground truth for analysis of the first aerial image. The learned model inference module is configured to receive a second aerial image and apply the learned model on the second aerial image for identification of mapping information for the map data.
