5. The machine-readable storage medium of claim 4 , wherein the features comprise at least one of: lane markings, traffic signs, traffic lights, poles, or roadway objects.

6. The machine-readable storage medium of claim 2 , wherein the map data to resolve the ambiguity includes navigation instructions to identify a path at a lane merge, lane fork, intersection, junction, or traffic circle of the roadway.

7. The machine-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the trajectory to navigate the host vehicle on the roadway is further generated based on distance information associated with the path.

8. The machine-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the generated trajectory of the host vehicle represents a planned driving action for accomplishing a navigational goal of the host vehicle on a planned route, and wherein the generated trajectory is used to change a current trajectory of the host vehicle.

9. The machine-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the images are captured by a multi-camera system of the host vehicle, and wherein each camera of the multi-camera system has a different field of view of the environment.

10. The machine-readable storage medium of claim 1 , wherein the instructions further cause the processor circuitry to obtain additional sensor data from a sensor device of the host vehicle, wherein the additional sensor data is used to provide additional information associated with the environment.
