US Patent 11977393 Navigational constraints for autonomous vehicles

An autonomous vehicle can access map data comprising travel ways within a surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle, and further access constraint data that define original navigational constraints within the map data. The vehicle can further receive constraint files comprising additional navigational constraints within the map data and modify the constraint data based on the constraint files. The vehicle can determine a travel route to a destination using composite constraint data and autonomously driver to the destination along the travel route accordingly.
