The virtual map is provided with a coordinate origin, for example, a charging station is used as the coordinate origin of the map, and grid position information of each grid in the coordinate system in each virtual map can be calculated by combining the coordinate origin and the size of the grid.
When the mower moves to a grid position within the physical boundary 100, the pose of the mower at the current time is obtained by the positioning unit 222, so as to clarify the current location and orientation of the mower. At this time, the area constructing unit 231 compares the pose information of the mower and the size information of the cutting disc with the grid position information to determine whether the grid is covered by the mower, and the specific comparison method is as follows: it is determined whether the distance from the center of the grid to the center of the operation device 250 is smaller than a set threshold. In the embodiment of the present invention, the threshold is set as the cutting radius R of the operating device 250, the distance between the center of the grid and the center of the operating device 250 is set as a, if a is less than R, it is determined that the grid is covered, the attribute value of the grid is marked as 1, and the area constructing unit 231 calculates to obtain the attribute information of each grid according to the walking path information of the lawn mower and the grid position information, so as to obtain the map grid data and finally generate the area map.
After the positioning unit 222 acquires a plurality of pieces of boundary position information, it can be understood that the boundary position information includes coordinate information, and the boundary modification unit 232 can classify the boundary position points according to the feature information of the boundary position points to form different data subsets, which can be understood as a set of coordinate data.

As an alternative embodiment, when the obstacle marking unit is a guide line, it may also be considered as an inner boundary, and the map building module 230 collects the position information of the inner boundary in the above manner, and accordingly builds the inner boundary of the map, which is used to correct the inner edge of the map. The final map building module 230 integrates the area map, the inner boundary and the outer boundary into a complete map through an algorithmic process.
The map generated in the embodiment of the invention is a two-dimensional (2D) map of the environment where the mower is located, and particularly is a grid map.
