Abstract

The present disclosure provides a data processing system, method, and device. A method for monitoring a high definition map data collection trip includes recording data collected from one or more sensors associated with a vehicle, determining a current vehicle location, and determining whether the vehicle is following a planned route based on the current vehicle location. On a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the method includes including an indication in the recorded data collected from the one or more sensors associated with the vehicle that the vehicle is off-route; generating additional navigation instructions, wherein the additional navigation instructions return the vehicle to the planned route; and providing the additional navigation instructions to a driver of the vehicle.

Claims (70)

1 . A method for monitoring a high definition map data collection trip, comprising:

recording data collected from one or more sensors associated with a vehicle;

determining a current vehicle location;

determining whether the vehicle is following a planned route, based on the current vehicle location;

on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route:

including an indication in the recorded data collected from the one or more sensors associated with the vehicle that the vehicle is off-route;

generating an alert;

uploading the alert to a command center;

receiving additional navigation instructions from the command center, wherein the additional navigation instructions return the vehicle to the planned route; and

displaying the additional navigation instructions on a display of an in-vehicle navigation device.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein determining whether the vehicle is following the planned route includes:

determining lane-specific information about the current vehicle location;

comparing the lane-specific information about the current vehicle location with corresponding lane-specific information of the planned route; and

determining that the vehicle is not following the planned route based on the comparison.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the method further comprises:

determining a reason why the vehicle is not following the planned route; and

uploading the alert and the reason to the command center.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the method further comprises:

displaying a visual alert on the display of the in-vehicle navigation device; or

outputting an audio signal via the in-vehicle navigation device.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving the planned route at the in-vehicle navigation device from the command center; and

displaying the planned route on the display of the in-vehicle navigation device.

6 . A system for monitoring a high definition map data collection trip, comprising:

an in-vehicle navigation device including a display and a processor configured to:

record data collected from one or more sensors associated with a vehicle;

determine a current vehicle location;

determine whether the vehicle is following a planned route, based on the current vehicle location;

on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route:

include an indication in the recorded data collected from the one or more sensors associated with the vehicle that the vehicle is off-route;

generate an alert;

upload the alert to a command center;

receive additional navigation instructions from the command center, wherein the additional navigation instructions return the vehicle to the planned route; and

display the additional navigation instructions on a display of an in-vehicle navigation device.

7 . The system of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to determine whether the vehicle is following the planned route by:

determining lane-specific information about the current vehicle location;

comparing the lane-specific information about the current vehicle location with corresponding lane-specific information of the planned route; and

determining that the vehicle is not following the planned route based on the comparison.

8 . The system of claim 6 , wherein on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the processor is further configured to:

determine a reason why the vehicle is not following the planned route; and

upload the alert and the reason to the command center.

9 . The system of claim 6 , wherein on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the processor is further configured to:

display a visual alert on the display of the in-vehicle navigation device; or

output an audio signal via the in-vehicle navigation device.

10 . The system of claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive the planned route from the command center; and

display the planned route on the display of the in-vehicle navigation device.

11 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a set of instructions that is executable by one or more processors of an electronic device to cause the electronic device to perform operations for monitoring a high definition map data collection trip, the operations comprising:

recording data collected from one or more sensors associated with a vehicle;

determining a current vehicle location;

determining whether the vehicle is following a planned route, based on the current vehicle location;

on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route:

including an indication in the recorded data collected from the one or more sensors associated with the vehicle that the vehicle is off-route;

generating an alert;

uploading the alert to a command center;

receiving additional navigation instructions from the command center, wherein the additional navigation instructions return the vehicle to the planned route; and

displaying the additional navigation instructions on a display of an in-vehicle navigation device.

12 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein determining whether the vehicle is following the planned route includes:

determining lane-specific information about the current vehicle location;

comparing the lane-specific information about the current vehicle location with corresponding lane-specific information of the planned route; and

determining that the vehicle is not following the planned route based on the comparison.

13 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the operations further comprises:

determining a reason why the vehicle is not following the planned route; and

uploading the alert and the reason to the command center.

14 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein on a condition that the vehicle is not following the planned route, the operations further comprises:

displaying a visual alert on the display of the in-vehicle navigation device; or

outputting an audio signal via the in-vehicle navigation device.

15 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 11 , wherein the set of instructions that is executable by one or more processors of the electronic device to cause the electronic device to further perform operations comprising:

receiving the planned route at the in-vehicle navigation device from the command center; and

displaying the planned route on the display of the in-vehicle navigation device.
