Fundamental principles of applying combined digital maps for highly automated vehicles

This study analyzes road graph and road marking graph construction principles for high-precision digital maps and conventional digital maps, as well as potential vehicle trajectories for various map sections. A practical experiment demonstrates the feasibility of vehicle operation with an automated motion control system using mixed maps.
