Patent ID: 11879738
Assignee: BAYERISCHE MOTOREN WERKE AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT
Field: Transport (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 6:
7. A system for controlling a second motor vehicle based on an assessed quality of a map data for a predetermined route traveled by a first motor vehicle, the first motor vehicle comprising:
a positioning device for recording a first trajectory of the first motor vehicle while traveling the predetermined route,
wherein the first trajectory comprises a number of positions of the first motor vehicle while traveling the predetermined route,
wherein each position of the number of positions is detected by the positioning device of the first motor vehicle;

a processor for:
determining a course of the predetermined route based on the map data;
determining a density of the number of positions of the first trajectory along the predetermined route;
determining a strength of a curvature of the first trajectory along the predetermined route;
determining the quality to which the first trajectory and the course correspond,
wherein the quality increases as the density of the number of positions of the first trajectory increases, and
wherein the quality decreases as the strength of the curvature of the predetermined route increases compared to the density of the number of positions of the first trajectory along the predetermined route; and

a wireless communication device for transmitting the quality of the map data for the predetermined route to a second motor vehicle,
the second motor vehicle comprising:
a wireless communication device for receiving the quality of the map data for the predetermined route, and
a processor for controlling the second motor vehicle along a second trajectory, wherein the second trajectory is based on the quality of the map data received from the first motor vehicle.
