1. A method comprising:
- determining first pose data for an autonomous vehicle based on first sensor data from a first plurality of sensors;
crosschecking the first sensor data from the first plurality of sensors;
determining second pose data for the autonomous vehicle based on second sensor data from a second plurality of sensors;
crosschecking the second sensor data from the second plurality of sensors; and
controlling, by a vehicle computer system, motion of the autonomous vehicle based on and at least one of the first pose data or the second pose data.

Abstract
Example systems and methods are disclosed for determining vehicle pose data for an autonomous vehicle. The vehicle computer system may receive pose data from multiple pose measurement systems of the autonomous vehicle. Each pose measurement system may include one or more corresponding sensors of the autonomous vehicle. The vehicle computer system may determine a pose data quality for the received pose data for each pose measurement system. The vehicle computer system may set the vehicle pose data to the pose data of the pose measurement system with the highest pose data quality. The vehicle computer system may control the autonomous vehicle based on the vehicle pose data.
