VEHICLE LOCALIZATION SYSTEM AND METHOD

A vehicle localization system and method includes acquiring, from a first sensor, first data indicative of a first navigation state of a vehicle; acquiring, from a second sensor, second data indicative of an environment in the vicinity of the vehicle; generating, using a processor communicatively coupled to the first sensor and the second sensor, a second navigation state based on matching the second data to a known map of the environment; and, generating, using the processor, a current navigation state based on the first navigation state and the second navigation state.
