1. An apparatus configured for facilitating assisted driving in a vehicle based on geospatial sensing of an environment in which the vehicle is disposed, the apparatus comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more persistent memory modules having program instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, perform following acts:
receive environmental data from one or more collection agents, each operating with a plurality of sensors configured to sense data relating to the environment, wherein at least one collection agent is integrated with the vehicle for providing vehicular condition data and vehicular navigation data;
obtain road condition information and obstacle condition information relating to a road segment the vehicle is traversing, the road segment forming at least a portion of a road network;
determine a routing path over the road segment responsive to at least one of the road condition information and the obstacle condition information;
present the routing path in an augmented reality (AR) display field overlaid on the road segment visible through the vehicle's windshield, the routing path having one or more segments that are each displayed with variable visible characteristics based on at least one of the road condition information and the obstacle condition information relative to the road segment; and
enable steering of the vehicle along the routing path on the road segment.
