چکیده

Traversability maps are a global spatial representation of the relative difficulty in driving through a local region. These maps support simple optimisation of robot paths and have been very popular in path planning techniques. Despite the popularity of these maps, the methods for generating global traversability maps have been limited to using a-priori information. This paper explores the construction of large scale traversability maps for a vehicle performing a repeated activity in a bounded working environment, such as a repeated delivery task. We evaluate the use of vehicle power consumption, longitudinal slip, lateral slip and vehicle orientation to classify the traversability and incorporate this into a map generated from sparse information.

Stereo vision based terrain mapping for off-road autonomous navigation

Successful off-road autonomous navigation by an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) requires reliable perception and representation of natural terrain. While perception algorithms are used to detect driving hazards, terrain mapping algorithms are used to represent the detected hazards in a world model a UGV can use to plan safe paths. There are two primary ways to detect driving hazards with percepti...

An Analysis Method on Post-earthquake Traversability of Road Network Considering Building Collapse

This study aims at quantifying the influence on the traversability of road network of road network caused by building collapse in earthquake. To this end, an analysis method on post-earthquake traversability of road network considering building collapse is proposed. First, the time-history analysis of seismic response based on the multi-degree of freedom (MDOF) model is performed for regional b...

Developing a New Method in Object Based Classification to Updating Large Scale Maps with Emphasis on Building Feature

According to the cities expansion, updating urban maps for urban planning is important and its effectiveness is depend on the information extraction / change detection accuracy. Information extraction methods are divided into two groups, including Pixel-Based (PB) and Object-Based (OB). OB analysis has overcome the limitations of PB analysis (producing salt-pepper results and features with hole...

Quality assessment of traversability maps from aerial LIDAR data for an unmanned ground vehicle

In this paper we address the problem of assessing quantitatively the quality of traversability maps computed from data collected by an airborne laser range finder. Such data is used to plan paths for an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) prior to the execution of long range traverses. Little attention has been devoted to the problem we address in this paper. We use a unique data set of geodetic cont...

Off-Road Terrain Traversability Analysis and Hazard Avoidance for UGVs

To achieve complete autonomy of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) in off-road terrain at high speeds, a robot must understand and analyze the terrain it is driving on in real-time just as a human analyzes the terrain and makes decisions of where to drive. Much research has been done in the way of obstacle avoidance, terrain classification, and path planning, but there has yet to be seen a system ...
