Abstract

A vehicle includes a system and method of operating the vehicle. The system includes a camera, a map database and a processor. The camera obtains camera data of a location of a road being traversed by the vehicle. The map database provides map data of the location of the road. The processor determines a first curvature of the road at the location from the camera data, determines a second curvature of the road at the location from the map data, identifies a mismatch between the first curvature and the second curvature at the location of the road, generates a case report for one of the map data and the camera data at the location upon occurrence of the mismatch, and adjusts one of the map data and a confidence level in the camera data for the location based on the case report.
