Abstract
The present disclosure is related to geographic maps including a plurality of map tiles having various geometric shapes. A determination is made for each map tile as to whether road segment geometry for a road corresponding to the geometric shape is available. The geometric shape is positioned using an actual road width when it is determined that the road segment geometry is available. The geometric shape is positioned using a default road width when it is determined that the road segment geometry is unavailable.
