Abstract

Techniques for determining a parking trajectory for a vehicle are discussed herein. A parking management component may determine or receive a three-dimensional grid ('grid'), discretized based at least in part on a heading offset, a lateral offset, and/or a longitudinal offset between a first and second pose. A cell of the grid may include a cost associated indicating a minimum difference to the second pose when moving from the first as may be limited based on kinematic and/or dynamic constraints. When driving, a vehicle may determine a relative state of the vehicle to a desired location, use the relative state to access a cost from the grid, and determine whether to follow a trajectory based on the cost.
