I traveled to Austin 3 weeks ago and there were entire highways not on Google Maps.
replyApparently they were built in just a few months.
There's some places where Apple still thinks I'm driving through a cornfield even though the development is a few years old, now.
replyI suppose I could inform them somehow, but it's not worth the bother.
But are they not continuously updating the road database with their fleet?
replyFor common routes, yes. For getting to John's house, where the path there sometimes floods, no.
replySo the first waymo to get to this less used road to john’s will not have the data rather than every waymo that travels down a new highway, that then becomes a problem if it rains.
replyOne car with an issue of first coincides with rain on a less used road?
Pretty sure they already rely on such a database for positioning, so they already have that problem.
replyBut yes, this wouldn't work for other self-driving systems that don't rely on HD maps.
