1. A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a processor of a computing system, data of a first plurality of road segments permitted for one or more autonomous operations in an autonomous level, the obtaining of the data of the first plurality of road segments comprises operating one or more vehicles on the first plurality of road segments to collect statistics on the first plurality of road segments pertaining to topological data, geometrical data, visibility, mobility, traffic patterns, or a combination thereof using a Geographic Information System (GIS), a camera and a Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) system installed on the one or more vehicles;
generating, by the processor, a road segment template based on the data of the first plurality of road segments;
obtaining data of a second plurality of road segments that have not been permitted for the one or more autonomous operations in the autonomous level;
reconstructing, by the processor, the second plurality of road segments in the computing system based on the road segment template to provide a plurality of reconstructed road segments in the computing system;
selecting one or more road segments from the plurality of reconstructed road segments; and
scheduling a road test on the selected one or more road segments.

Abstract
Methods, devices and apparatuses pertaining to identifying the candidate road segments for autonomous operations are described. A method may involve obtaining data of a first plurality of road segments that are permitted for one or more autonomous operations. The method may further include generating a road segment template based on the data of the first plurality of road segments, and reconstructing a second plurality of road segments based on the road segment template to obtain a plurality of reconstructed road segments.
