Abstract

Information corresponding to one or more traversable map elements (TMEs) within a zone of interest is accessed from the geographic database. A respective category of a plurality of categories is determined for each of the one or more TMEs based at least in part on the information corresponding to the TME. A first category encoding data structure is generated based at least in part on map version agnostic identifiers corresponding to TMEs determined to be in a first category of the plurality of categories, wherein the first category encoding data structure is a probabilistic data structure configured to not provide false negatives for TMEs within the zone of interest. The first category encoding data structure is provided such that a mobile apparatus receives the first category encoding data structure.
