ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR GENERATING MAP DATA AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF

Provided are an electronic device for generating map data and an operating method of the electronic device. The operating method of the electronic device includes: obtaining image data of a first resolution and image data of a second resolution for each of a plurality of nodes generated while the electronic device moves; obtaining location information with respect to each of the generated nodes, by using the image data of the second resolution; generating and storing map data by matching the obtained location information with the image data of the first resolution for each node; and estimating a current location of the electronic device by using the generated map data and the image data of the first resolution.
