    Abstract: In an autonomous vehicle system, data received from one or more autonomous vehicles (AVs) can be aggregated to generate aggregated data. From this aggregated data, a vector-field map can be generated that includes a plurality of cells. Each of the cells can include a corresponding vector. The vector field map can be analyzed to identify one or more vectors of the plurality of cells that exceed one or more predetermined threshold values. The analysis can include a magnitude analysis and/or a frequency analysis. Based on the analysis, traffic and/or road conditions can be determined, which can provide prior knowledge about the driving behavior of other vehicles. Advantageously, aspects of the disclosure improve predictive motion models and enhance navigation algorithms.

    Abstract: Provided is a device and a method for route planning. The route planning device (100) may include a data interface (128) coupled to a road and traffic data source (160); a user interface (170) configured to display a map and receive a route planning request from a user, the route planning request including a line of interest on the map; a processor (110) coupled to the data interface (128) and the user interface (170). The processor (110) may be configured to identify the line of interest in response to the route planning request; acquire, via the data interface (128), road and traffic information associated with the line of interest from the road and traffic data source (160); and calculate, based on the acquired road and traffic information, a navigation route that matches or corresponds to the line of interest and meets or satisfies predefined road and traffic constraints.
