Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to performing navigation operations based on junction area information digested at runtime of one or more systems of a machine. In some embodiments, the junction area information may be encoded in map data corresponding to a map, and the encoding may include organizing vehicle paths that traverse through a junction area according to path groups and organizing contentions that influence behavior of vehicles traveling along the vehicle paths according to contention groups. In addition, the encoding may include generating direction data structures that associate respective path groups with one or more of the contention groups. In these or other embodiments, the map data that corresponds to the junction area may be updated with direction data structures.
