Method and control arrangement for updating map data during ongoing missions

Patentradars sammanfattning

This Scania CV AB patent covers a computer-implemented method for over-the-air (OTA) updating of high-definition (HD) maps on autonomously operating vehicles while a mission is actively in progress. The core novelty lies in gating the map update to predefined 'safe states' of vehicle operation, thereby avoiding unsafe mid-maneuver map swaps. After applying the update, the system checks whether the ongoing mission remains compliant with the new map, proceeding normally if compatible or aborting the mission if not. The invention addresses the operational dilemma between delaying safety-critical map updates until mission completion versus prematurely halting all missions to force an immediate update.
