Researchers refined and extended the 6-Layer Model for a structured description and categorization of urban traffic and environments, resolving prior inconsistencies and expanding its applicability beyond highways. The updated model provides a consistent framework for defining complex real-world operational design domains to support automated driving verification and validation.
Key insights
- A fundamental distinction exists between spatially fixed, scenario-constant elements (Layers 1-3) and time-dependent, dynamic aspects of the environment (Layers 4-6).
- An objective, actor-independent description of the observable environment is essential for broad applicability of the model and for avoiding system-specific biases in AD development.
- Properties of environmental entities can logically span different layers, requiring clear guidelines to ensure consistent categorization based on their temporal behavior and influence.
