vm-06-01 Buffer Zone#

Detail of requirements #

Create a Polygon (type:hatched_road_markings) when a Buffer Zone (also known as a zebra zone) is painted on the road surface.

  • If the Buffer Zone is next to a Lanelet, share Points between them.
  • Overlap the Buffer Zone's Polygon with the intersection's Polygon (intersection_area) if the Buffer Zone is located at an intersection.
Behavior of Autoware: #

In order to avoid obstacles, Autoware regards the Buffer Zone as a drivable area and proceeds through it.

Caution#
  • Vehicles are not allowed to pass through safety areas. It's important to differentiate between Buffer Zones and safety areas. - Do not create a Polygon for the Buffer Zone in areas where static objects like poles are present and vehicles cannot pass, even if a Buffer Zone is painted on the surface. Buffer Zones should be established only in areas where vehicle passage is feasible.

vm-06-02 No parking signs#

Detail of requirements #

When creating a Vector Map, you can prohibit parking in specific areas, while temporary stops are permitted.

Create a reference from a Lanelet (subtype:road) to a Regulatory Element (subtype:no_parking_area), and have this Regulatory Element refer to a Polygon (type:no_parking_area).

Refer to Web.Auto Documentation - Creation of No Parking Area for the method of creation in Vector Map Builder.

Behavior of Autoware: #

Since no_parking_area does not allow for setting a goal, Autoware cannot park the vehicle there.

vm-06-03 No stopping signs#

Detail of requirements #

When creating a Vector Map, you can prohibit stopping in specific areas, while temporary stops are permitted.

Create a reference from a Lanelet (subtype:road) to a Regulatory Element (subtype:no_parking_area), and have this Regulatory Element refer to a Polygon (type:no_parking_area).

Refer to Web.Auto Documentation - Creation of No Parking Area for the method of creation in Vector Map Builder.

Behavior of Autoware: #

Since no_parking_area does not allow for setting a goal, Autoware cannot park the vehicle there.

vm-06-04 No stopping sections#

Detail of requirements #

While vehicles may stop on the road for signals or traffic congestion, you can prohibit any form of stopping (temporary stopping, parking, idling) in specific areas when creating a Vector Map.

Create a reference from a Lanelet (subtype:road) to a Regulatory Element (subtype:no_stopping_area), and have this Regulatory Element refer to a Polygon (type:no_stopping_area).

Refer to Web.Auto Documentation - Creation of No Stopping Area for the method of creation in Vector Map Builder.

Behavior of Autoware: #

The vehicle does not make temporary stops in no_stopping_area. Since goals cannot be set in no_stopping_area, the vehicle cannot park there.

vm-06-05 Detection area#

Detail of requirements #

Autoware identifies obstacles by detecting point clouds in the Detection Area, leading to a stop at the stop line and maintaining that stop until the obstacles move away. To enable this response, incorporate the Detection Area element into the Vector Map.

Create a reference from a Lanelet (subtype:road) to a Regulatory Element (subtype:detection_area), and have this Regulatory Element refer to a Polygon (type:detection_area) and a Linestring (type:stop_line).

Refer to Web.Auto Documentation - Creation of Detection Area for the method of creation in Vector Map Builder.
