Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An automatic traveling control system includes a vehicle control device configured to control an automatic traveling of a vehicle on the basis of a road structure map stored in a storage device, a reception device configured to receive change information of the road structure map from an outside, and an update device configured to update the road structure map on the basis of the change information. In a case where the change information is information indicating a temporary change of a predetermined section included in the road structure map, the road structure map is not updated and the automatic traveling of the vehicle is limited in the predetermined section.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An automatic traveling control system comprising: a vehicle control device configured to control an automatic traveling of a vehicle on the basis of a road structure map stored in a storage device; a reception device configured to receive change information of the road structure map from outside; and an update device configured to update the road structure map on the basis of the change information; wherein, in a case where the change information is information indicating a temporary change of a predetermined section included in the road structure map, the road structure map is not updated and the automatic traveling of the vehicle is limited in the predetermined section. 2. The automatic traveling control system according to claim 1 , wherein, in a case where the predetermined section is included in an automatic traveling section of the vehicle, at least part of functions of the automatic traveling is limited so as to be changed to a manual driving before reaching the predetermined section. 3. The automatic traveling control system according to claim 1 , wherein, in a case where the predetermined section is included in an automatic traveling section of the vehicle, after passing the predetermined section and traveling a predetermined distance, the limitation of the automatic traveling is released. 4. The automatic traveling control system according to claim 1 , wherein, in a case where the change information is information indicating a change in a shape of a road in the road structure map, the road structure map is updated on the basis of the change information. 5. A server device that distributes change information of a road structure map to a vehicle including an automatic traveling control system that controls an automatic traveling on the basis of the road structure map, wherein, in a case where the change information is information indicating a temporary change of a predetermined section included in the road structure map, the server device distributes information for restricting the automatic traveling of the vehicle in the predetermined section.
