New HRDX dataset advances autonomous driving HD map construction

Researchers have introduced HRDX, a new large-scale dataset for constructing vector HD maps crucial for autonomous driving. Spanning approximately 1,400 km of driving data, HRDX is significantly larger than existing public datasets and includes richer semantic attributes and multimodal data like aerial imagery. The dataset aims to advance research in large-scale HD-map learning, multimodal BEV fusion, and the use of training-time privileged information, with experiments showing improvements in map construction quality. AI

IMPACT Enables more robust autonomous driving systems through improved HD map learning and multimodal fusion techniques.

    HRDX: A Large-Scale Vector HD-Map Dataset

    arXiv:2606.17080v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reliable autonomous driving requires vectorized HD maps that are geometrically accurate, semantically rich, and scalable to long-horizon driving. However, existing public HD map datasets are limited in scale, provide sparse semant…
