The University of Amsterdam (UvA) and TomTom are opening a new research lab called 'ATLAS Lab' consisting of one tenure track assistant pofessor and five PhD students. The focus of the new lab will be on developing advanced, highly accurate and safe maps for automated vehicles (HD maps), using Artificial Intelligence. These HD maps include detailed geometric and semantic representations of elements in a road network, such as lane dividers, traffic signs, traffic lights, junctions, etc.
