Pre-mapping the areas where AVs operate isn't currently a significant issue for companies because AV deployments are confined to small geographic areas.Mapping involves driving non-autonomous cars equipped with cameras to create a high-definition map of a road environment, which AVs then follow when driving.
However, as AV companies look to scale up their AV programs, pre-mapping thousands of miles of roads will be challenging. Once companies move beyond their initial AV deployments, they'll be in an arms race to quickly expand their programs to as many geographies as possible.
