Abstract

Provided is a computer-implemented method, system, and computer program product for predicting data insufficiency related to performing autonomous vehicle actions and dynamically mitigating the data insufficiency by collecting external data from additional data sources. A processor may direct, for an autonomous vehicle, an action in response to external data. The processor may collect contextual data about an environment in which the autonomous vehicle is operating. The processor may predict, based in part on the collected contextual data, an insufficiency of external data for performing the action. In response to the predicting, the processor may direct collection of additional external data from a second data source.
