Abstract
A method for prioritizing occlusion information is presented. The method includes determining, at a first time period, a first sensor's view of a spatial area is occluded. The method also includes observing, at a second time period, the spatial area. The method further includes determining a level of risk associated with the spatial area based on the observation. The method still further includes prioritizing transmission of the occlusion information corresponding to the spatial area based on the determined level of risk and transmitting the occlusion information corresponding to the spatial area based on the priority.
