Abstract

The invention provides a route planning method for an autonomous vehicle based on a vector map and a grid map. The route planning method comprises: planning a global shortest route of the current position of the autonomous vehicle to a target point through a global vector map; obtaining a current partial grid map of the current position of the autonomous vehicle; and according to the global shortest route, calculating a partial motion route based on the partial grid map, and controlling the autonomous vehicle to travel to the target point according to the partial motion path. According to theroute planning method for the autonomous vehicle based on the vector map and the grid map, the vector map is used as an environment model in the global route planning layer, and the grid map is used as an environment model in the partial motion route planning layer, that is, different maps are used as environment models in different planning layers, and at the same time, different types of planning algorithms are used, so that the real-time performance and accuracy of the algorithm under an actual scene are met at the same time, and the algorithm combining the vector map and the grid map greatly reduces the occupation of system operation resources.
