US Patent 11254329 Systems and methods for compression of lane data

A system for identifying features of a roadway traversed by a host vehicle may include at least one processor programmed to: receive a plurality of images representative of an environment of the host vehicle; recognize in the plurality of images a presence of a road feature associated with the roadway; determine a location of a first point associated with the road feature relative to a curve representative of a path of travel of the host vehicle; determine a location of a second point associated with the road feature relative to the curve; and cause transmission to a server remotely located from the host vehicle of a representation of a series of points associated with locations along the road feature. The second point may be spaced apart from the first point, and the series of points may include at least the first point and the second point.
