METHOD, APPARATUS, AND SYSTEM FOR COMPARING AND ASSIMILATING ROAD LANE REPRESENTATIONS USING GEOSPATIAL DATA AND ATTRIBUTE DATA

摘要

An approach is provided for comparing and assimilating road lane representations. The approach, for example, receiving two cartographic feature representations (e.g., digital road lane representations). The approach also involves computing a geometric similarity between the cartographic representations. The approach further involves processing attribute data associated with the cartographic feature representations to determine a semantic relationship between the representations. The approach further involves generating a recommendation with respect to assimilating the representations based on the geometric similarity and the semantic relationship, and providing the recommendation as an output.
