HERE Technologies has introduced SceneXtract, a software tool designed to make it easier and faster for automotive developers to recreate real-world environments for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and Automated Driving (AD) simulation. Built in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS), SceneXtract offers a solution for manually searching, locating and converting real-world environments into simulation-ready scenes.
SceneXtract leverages the HERE HD Live Map, a cloud-based service that enables the automotive industry to access highly precise, accurate and continuously updated map data. The HERE HD Live Map contains information such as the topology and geometry of roadways globally, including lane-level attributes and vehicle localization features.
SceneXtract utilizes AWS natural language processing (NLP) and generative AI services to help developers locate and export HERE HD Live Map data into scenes, in OpenDrive format, for testing.
