A vehicle behavior monitor installed in a host vehicle that monitors the behavior of other vehicles. When the behavior of the other vehicles appears to deviate from an expected trajectory of an in-vehicle map, a geo-fenced region is monitored by external sensors. The external sensor data stream is input to a pre-trained anomaly detector. The clusters from the feature space of the encoder are compared to a database of known behaviors. A confidence level is determined based on the number of vehicles which exhibit the behavior. If the confidence level is equal to or greater than a confidence level threshold, a persistence value is calculate based on the type of behavior. The behavior and the persistence value are used to update the in-vehicle map. Based on the persistence value, the update is transmitted to a map server when the host vehicle enters an area of high data connectivity or is dropped.
