Putting trust in autonomous driving with intelligent mapping
Safety and comfort are the key challenges as we move into the era of autonomous driving, aiming to replicate the human driving experience and build consumer trust.
The autonomous vehicle’s ability to understand its precise positioning, plan beyond sensor visibility, possess contextual awareness of the environment and local knowledge of the road rules are critical pieces of the autonomous driving puzzle.
HERE HD Live Map is the prerequisite for autonomous driving solutions.
Building driver trust with the most intelligent and reliable solution
Scalable, open and flexible
Whether it’s matching your needs or your customer needs, HERE Connected Vehicle Services and Open Location Platform offers a wide range of products and services that, with HERE HD Live Map, provide the most flexible solutions.
Enhance safety and driver trust
Safety comes first on the road. To help a self-driving vehicle make more informed decisions about its driving strategy, the Quality Index-unique to HERE HD Live Map – uses machine learning to validate map data against the real world in real time.
Expand into new markets
As a global solution that can sustain global product roll-outs, HERE is a partner to grow with. Our global map data lets you build reliable and scalable solutions for your current and future customers with an extensive location-based database.
Experience reliability
Vehicles rely on the most recent data to inform their driving decisions. Our self-healing map analyzes data from multiple sources, such as satellite imagery and sensors from OEM fleets in real-time, allowing our maps to always stay fresh and reliable.

How HERE HD Live Map works
Building the foundation
The base map is the foundation of HERE HD Live Map. Captured via a highly precise industrial process using our HERE True Vehicles equipped with LiDAR, collecting 28TB of data everyday – with accuracy down to centimeters.
Ingestion via the crowd
Using crowdsourced vehicle sensor data, we collect drive paths, lane markings and more. Combined with multiple data sources like satellite imagery helps us maintain a fresh HERE HD Live Map.
Map learning in the cloud
Vehicles differ in size, sensor set-up and drive path. These variations result in many observations of the same roadside objects. The machine (map) learning of HERE aggregates this varying sensor data to determine the precise location of roadside artifacts.
Under the hood
HERE HD Live Map is a cloud-based service that supports connected ADAS and highly automated driving solutions.
Comprised of various tiled layers that are highly accurate and updated through multiple data sources, the layers are logically structured into Road Model, HD Lane Model, and HD Localization Model.
