METHOD, APPARATUS, COMPUTING DEVICE AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR POSITIONING

The present disclosure provides a method, an apparatus, a computer device and a computer-readable storage medium for positioning, and relates to the field of autonomous driving. The method obtains point cloud data collected by a LiDAR on a device at a current time; determines, based on the point cloud data and a global map built in a global coordinate system, global positioning information of the device in the global coordinate system at the current time; and determine, based on the point cloud data and a local map built in a local coordinate system, local positioning information of the device in the local coordinate system at the current time. A positioning result of the device at the current time is determined based on at least the global positioning information and the local positioning information.
