Do you have any links on the topic you could share? Very interested in learning more! I am a bit of a precision positioning and fleet data collection wonk.
Most commercial LiDAR trucks are accurate down to millimeters in relative terms and centimeters in absolute position terms. The equipment has been certified by approved surveying bodies, and there are official records as to that specific piece of collection equipment’s accuracy and precision.
If any autonomous car company could deliver data to that standard then it would be valuable. But to my knowledge none of them can, because the accuracy of measurement systems for surveying roads at motion are so specialized and expensive.
