US 2024/0200978 A1 · SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING AN INTERSECTION CONNECTION POINT

Abstract

A system is disclosed for estimating intersection connection point. The system, for example, obtains first feature data for a first feature line, obtains second feature data for a second feature line. The second feature line is within a first predefined threshold from the first feature line. The system identifies an intersection area based on the first feature data and the second feature data, the intersection area comprising a candidate intersection point; estimates an offset value for the first feature line and the second feature line within the intersection area; estimates heading information for the candidate intersection point based on the first feature data, the second feature data and the intersection area; and estimates the intersection connection point for the first feature line and the second feature line based on the candidate intersection point, the offset value and the heading information.
