On the Path to Automated Driving - HERE Introduces HD Live Map
At the Consumer Electronic Show HERE introduced their HD Live Map, which is the fundamental enabler for highly automated driving. The HD Live Map – the first of its kind – creates a highly detailed and dynamic representation of the road environment, enabling a vehicle to effectively "see around corners." The HD Live Map contains lane level information, dynamic road network and situation changes, and speed profile data. These layers combine long-standing content (HD Map), temporary information (Live Roads), and analytics data (Humanized Driving).
