With the rapid rise of the automatic driving industry, the exploration and the application of unmanned vehicles in various industries are greatly expanded. However, in an actual landing scenario, the requirements for the intelligence and safety of a single vehicle are high, and great risks and challenges still exist, and continuous technical exploration and iteration are required.

The high-precision map can be accurate to the element granularity of a lane level, the lane can contain rich traffic rules and geometric features, a complete spatial topological relation is constructed between the lane and the lane, more dimensional information such as lane lines and ramp roads of the road is fed back to an electric control system of the automobile, the automobile can have data at any time during automatic driving, the over-the-horizon sensing is carried out, the limitation of automobile body sensing hardware is broken through, and therefore real high-order automatic driving is achieved.
A road network high-precision map of an unmanned vehicle is characterized in that global lane-level topological map data are quickly constructed by utilizing sensor data and track positioning information of the unmanned vehicle, and the map is directly applied to decision planning and auxiliary positioning of the unmanned vehicle. Therefore, the rapid construction of the high-precision road network map is a hot spot of research in the field of unmanned driving at present.
At present, the original data acquisition of a high-precision map mainly has two modes, one mode is a data acquisition vehicle utilizing a professional sensor, and the other mode is a mode of carrying out multi-batch crowd-sourcing mapping on the acquisition vehicle carrying a low-cost sensor.

Crowdsourcing collection is data collection by using low-cost sensors matched with vehicle ends, and because the data source precision is low, the requirement of single-batch mapping is difficult to form, a large amount of vehicle ends are required to be collected to upload data, a map with reliable precision and integrity is processed and generated, and a collection vehicle with the same data is a manned vehicle. The method utilizes the sensor equipment of the commercial unmanned vehicle, the equipment cost is between the two methods, and the high-precision sensor equipment and the central data processor which are perfectly matched with the unmanned vehicle can be used for carrying out single-batch rapid construction of the lane-level high-precision road network map through the complete algorithm tool chain processing of the patent. The sensor equipment refers to equipment such as laser radar, a camera, an IMU (inertial measurement unit), a GNSS (global navigation satellite system) and the like.
