Abstract

Abstract. The paper discusses the importance of efficient methods in the automotive industry for the development of self-driving vehicles and advanced vehicle assistants, focusing on the use of high-definition (HD) maps. The integration of computer simulation and HD maps in the OpenDRIVE format is emphasized. A paradigm shift in map topology is highlighted, requiring a new map creation and usage approach. The article presents a methodology that addresses both geometric and topological aspects in creating accurate HD map models. The method focuses on the connection of linear and arc road elements and eliminating continuity/connectivity errors in lane descriptions. Real-world tests validate the implemented methodology and demonstrate the successful generation of topologically correct HD map models. The results show the potential of these models for various automotive applications, particularly in the development and testing of self-driving vehicles and advanced vehicle assistants. The methodology contributes to the advancement of HD map creation, providing valuable insights for researchers and map makers in the automotive industry.
