Map building

Map building is the process of creating a digital or physical representation of an environment's layout, often using sensors, cameras, or specialized equipment. In robotics or autonomous systems, it involves collecting data about surroundings and integrating this information into a cohesive map to navigate accurately. This process helps machines recognize obstacles, plan routes, and understand their location within a space. Essentially, map building transforms sensory information into a structured map that enables vehicles, robots, or software to operate efficiently and safely within an environment.
