Abstract
A method and system for navigating a vehicle using automatically labeled images. The system includes a camera configured to capture an image of a roadway and an electronic processor communicatively connected to the camera. The electronic processor is configured to load a map that includes a first plurality of features and receive the image. The image includes a second plurality of features. The electronic processor is further configured to project the map onto the image; detect the second plurality of features within the image; and align the map with the image by aligning the first plurality of features with the second plurality of features. The electronic processor is further configured to copy a label describing one of the first plurality of features onto a corresponding one of the second plurality of features to create a labelled image and to use the labelled image to assist in navigation of the vehicle.
