Streetlight blocks enhanced adaptive high beam control

A system for Adaptive High Beam Control (AHBC) for a vehicle, the system comprising one or more memory storage areas comprising program code, the one or more memory storage areas and the program code being configured to, with one or more processors, cause the system to at least:

• obtain information about an existence of streetlighting for an upcoming road segment ahead of the vehicle from a digital map layer based on a current position of the vehicle, wherein the digital map layer is formed from probe sourced data from a fleet of vehicles,
• wherein the digital map layer comprises a plurality of streetlight blocks, each streetlight block comprising a start and an end along a road, and each streetlight block defining a road segment having one or more streetlights;
• and
• control an illumination of a space in front of the vehicle based on the obtained information about the existence of streetlighting for the upcoming road segment so to avoid casting high beam illumination towards road areas associated with streetlights.
