DESCRIPTION:Join us\, Wednesday\, 7th of February\, 2024\, at 17:00 PM CET 
 for an exciting virtual talk by Jan-Hendrik Pauls on the topic &quot;Lanelet2: 
 A Map Framework for Automated Driving&quot;.\n\nThis talk is part of the ITSS D
 istinguished Lecture Series (DLS)\, organized by the [ITSS Germany Chapter
 ](https://ieee-itss-germany.org/) and technically co-sponsored by [Karlsru
 he Institute of Technology (KIT)](https://www.mrt.kit.edu/).\n\nTopic:\n\n
 Lanelet2: A Map Framework for Automated Driving\n\nAbstract:\n\nTo ensure 
 safe and comfortable automated driving\, even the most complex traffic sce
 narios must be interpreted correctly. Since the static parts of the world 
 rarely change\, maps can be used to model them and their interpretation. T
 his allows the interpretation to be performed offline and possibly even wi
 th human assistance.\n\nThis lecture will introduce Lanelet2\, a map handl
 ing framework for the research and development of automated driving functi
 ons and autonomous vehicles. Lanelet2&#39;s core idea is bottom-up design that
  not only enables reproducible mapping. The framework also connects the ab
 stract map layers with the physical elements from which they naturally eme
 rge. By unifying the needs of all driving functions\, Lanelet2 ensures a c
 onsistent view of the world. In addition to the map framework\, the lectur
 e will show how Lanelet2 maps can be created using data from onboard senso
 rs and/or aerial imagery. Finally\, we will discuss currently developments
  around Lanelet2\, such as an extension for deep learning.\n\nBiosketch:\n
 \nJan-Hendrik Pauls received his B.Sc. in Engineering Cybernetics and his 
 M.Sc. in Computer Science from the University of Stuttgart\, Germany. He l
 eads the research group for mapping and localization at the Institute of M
 easurement and Control Systems at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (K
 IT)\, where he also pursues his PhD. Within the field of automated driving
 \, his research focus lies on perceiving the static world\, capturing it i
 n meaningful representations like HAD maps\, highly accurate 6D localizati
 on within such maps\, and their temporal verification.\n\nSpeaker(s): Jan-
