Abstract: Techniques and methods for crosswalk handling for vehicles. The vehicle may identify a crosswalk and an object associated with the crosswalk in the environment. The vehicle may determine a heatmap based on sensor data and map data. The vehicle may determine a factor associated with the crosswalk relative to one or more of the vehicle and/or object based on the heatmap associated with the crosswalk. The vehicle may determine a cost associated with the crosswalk based on the factor. The vehicle may determine a trajectory for the vehicle to operate in the environment based on the cost associated with the crosswalk and follow the trajectory to travel in the environment.

Abstract: Techniques for generating a driving surface cost landscape for determining costs for vehicle positions in an environment are described herein. A planning component within a vehicle may determine a non-preferred surface associated with a type of non-preferred area of an environment along a route of a vehicle, determine a preferred surface associated with a preferred area of the environment, determine an adjusted non-preferred surface by removing an overlapping area of the non-preferred surface that overlaps the preferred surface and determine a cost associated with a vehicle position based at least on the preferred surface and the adjusted non-preferred surface. The planning component may then determine a control trajectory for the autonomous vehicle based at least in part on the cost associated with the vehicle position.
