  "textContent": "Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generated simulated sensor data. One of the methods includes obtaining a surfel map generated from sensor observations of a real-world environment and generating, for each surfel in the surfel map, a respective grid having a plurality of grid cells, wherein each grid has an orientation matching an orientation of a corresponding surfel, and wherein each grid cell within each grid is assigned a respective color value. For a simulated location within a simulated representation of the real-world environment, a textured surfel rendering is generated, including combining color information from grid cells visible from the simulated location within the simulated representation of the real-world environment.",
