7. A method for automatically controlling a speed of a vehicle, the method comprising:
receiving a first user input to initiate speed control from a driver and initiating speed control;
determining a presence of an adverse-condition;

determining the speed map does not contain a first entry associated with a first location of the driver;
interpolating using the plurality of the entries in the speed map and generating the first entry; and
revising the first entry to include an offset value associated with the determined adverse condition.
