System and methods for selectively collecting information from a host vehicle. The system may perform operations including causing collection of navigational information associated with an environment traversed by the host vehicle; storing the collected navigational information; determining, based on an output of at least one navigational sensor, a location of the host vehicle; transmitting the determined location of the host vehicle to a server; receiving, from the server and in response to the transmitted determined location, a request for transmission of a selected subset of the navigational information collected by the host vehicle; and transmitting the selected subset of the navigational information to the server.
