Abstract
A system that determines a projected range of a vehicle is described. The system includes: a storage element that stores a set of parameters associated with a vehicle; a map evaluation element that retrieves information regarding a geographic area associated with a position of the vehicle, where the retrieved information includes multiple links associated with available roadways in the geographic area and each link includes a cost value; and a processing element that determines the projected range of the vehicle based at least partly on the set of parameters and the retrieved information, by evaluating the links to identify multiple paths extending outward from the position of the vehicle, where each path includes a set of links having a summed cost value that is less than a target cost, where the processing element further generates a polygon representing the projected range by tracing the links associated with the paths.
