Abstract

A method comprises monitoring, by a processor, using a sensor of a first vehicle, data associated with a retroreflective feature near a road being driven by the first vehicle; vectorizing, by the processor, the data associated with the retroreflective feature; generating, by the processor, a digital map including vectorized data associated with the retroreflective feature and a location associated with the retroreflective feature; receiving, by the processor, data associated with the retroreflective feature from a second vehicle; and executing, by the processor, a localization protocol to identify a location of the second vehicle using the digital map.
