About NVIDIA DRIVE Map
NVIDIA DRIVE® Map is a multi-modal mapping platform designed to enable the highest levels of autonomy while improving safety. It combines the accuracy of ground truth mapping with the freshness and scale of AI-based fleet-sourced mapping. With four localization layers—camera, lidar, radar, and GNSS—DRIVE Map provides the redundancy and versatility required by the most advanced AI drivers. DRIVE Map is designed for the highest level of accuracy, the ground truth map engine creates DRIVE Maps using rich sensors—cameras, radars, lidars, and differential GNSS/IMU—with NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion data collection vehicles. It achieves better than 5 cm accuracy for higher levels of autonomy (L3/L4) in selected environments, such as highways and urban environments. DRIVE Map is designed for near real-time operation and global scalability. Based on both ground truth and fleet-sourced data, it represents the collective memory of millions of vehicles.
