APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE NAVIGATION AT INTERSECTIONS

An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for providing autonomous vehicle navigation at intersections. In one example, the apparatus identifies an intersection associated with at least two road signs having the same sign type and facing the same direction. The apparatus updates map data to include a datapoint that provides a representation of a single road sign at the intersection instead of the at least two road signs, thereby enabling an autonomous vehicle relying on the map data to traverse the intersection to adhere to the single road sign in lieu of the at least two road signs.
