Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to encoding of junction area information in map data. In particular, the encoding may include organizing vehicle paths that traverse through a junction area according to path groups and organizing contentions that influence behavior of vehicles traveling along the vehicle paths according to contention groups. In addition, the encoding may include generating direction data structures that associate respective path groups with one or more of the contention groups. In these or other embodiments, the map data that corresponds to the junction area may be updated with direction data structures.
