MAP GENERATION APPARATUS AND VEHICLE CONTROL APPARATUS

Abstract:

A map generation apparatus includes a microprocessor configured to perform generating a map, based on a data detected by an in-vehicle detection unit configured to detect a situation around a subject vehicle in traveling, recognizing a traveling direction of the subject vehicle on the generated map, and generating a traffic light information on a traffic light installed at an intersection as an additional information for the generated map. The traffic light is an arrow-type traffic light configured to permit traveling in a direction indicated by an arrow signal light. The microprocessor is configured to perform the generating a traffic light information including generating the traffic light information, based on the direction indicated by the arrow signal light, detected by the detection unit, and the traveling direction of the subject vehicle recognized in the recognizing.
