Abstract
When an autonomous vehicle plans a new drive mission in a confined area, a first set of environmental information, and after a time interval, a second set of environmental information, are obtained by a device flying above a confined area including the departure point and the destination point of the vehicle, each set of environmental information including locations and geometries of objects in the confined area. Then, an object that is present at the same location in the first set of environmental information and in the second set of environmental information is classified as a semi-static object, and an object that is present at different locations in the first set of environmental information and in the second set of environmental information is classified as a dynamic object. A map including location and geometry of each object classified as a semi-static object is then created.
