Abstract
A method performed by a computing system comprises providing instructions to a teleoperational assembly to move an instrument within an anatomic passageway according to a commanded velocity profile. The method also comprises receiving a set of spatial information from the instrument positioned within the anatomic passageway and filtering the set of spatial information to select a quantity of spatial data records from the set of spatial information proportionate to the commanded velocity profile.
