Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure generally relates to routing an AV to a three-dimensional location based on one or more rules and the longitudinal coordinate, the latitudinal coordinate, and the altitude parameter of the location. A method for determining, based on a longitudinal coordinate, a latitudinal coordinate, and an altitude parameter of the location, a route for an autonomous vehicle (AV) to travel to the location; determining one or more rules for vehicles in the multi-level structure based on at least one of a characteristic of a scene within the multi-level structure determined based on sensor data collected by the AV and one or more features of the scene determined based on the sensor data, and routing the AV to the location based on the one or more rules and the longitudinal coordinate, the latitudinal coordinate, and the altitude parameter of the location. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
