Abstract
In various examples, a network of servers, such as a content delivery network, is used to provide a lightweight approach to hosting and serving HD map data to vehicles. The lightweight approach may allow for modifying various map components, such as tiles, layers, and/or segments. Modifying may include adding, removing, and/or updating the various components. A request to modify a first version of a High definition (HD) map may be received. Map data may be recorded that represents a second version of the HD map. A second request associated with the HD map may be received from a vehicle. Based on this second request, second map data representative of at least a portion of a layer may be identified on at least one server of the network of servers. The second map data may then be transmitted to the vehicle by the network of servers.
