Abstract

A method comprises receiving, at a vehicle system of a vehicle, sensor data from one or more sensors; detecting an object based on the sensor data; determining whether a dynamic map maintained by a remote computing device includes the detected object; upon determination that the dynamic map includes the detected object, determining a remaining time-to-live associated with the detected object based on data associated with the dynamic map; and transmitting data about the detected object to the remote computing device if the determined remaining time-to-live associated with the detected object is less than a predetermined threshold time.
