Data measurement vehicle (MMS/Mobile Mapping System) of Dynamic Map Platform High-precision 3D data of Tokyo Ryutsu Center ■ Background of this Initiative In the logistics industry, the use of autonomous vehicles for transportation is being considered to address urgent social issues such as a shortage of truck drivers. While technical studies such as on-road demonstrations of autonomous trucks on highways are being conducted under government leadership, to maximize the effectiveness of problem-solving and automate the entire logistics network, it is necessary to also consider technology that allows autonomous vehicles to access not only highways but also the loading/unloading bays*2 within logistics facilities, which are the nodes of logistics. TRC is located in the Nanbu Ryutsu Gyomu Danchi (Southern Distribution Business Park) and is in close proximity to the Shuto Expressway Haneda Line's Heiwajima IC and the Wangan Line's Oi Minami IC. Taking advantage of this location, we aim to become a hub where autonomous vehicles can smoothly enter from the highway once their operation on general roads becomes practical in the future. Meanwhile, Dynamic Map Platform, as a member company of the Heiwajima Autonomous Driving Council, has been participating in the "TRC Building Autonomous Driving WG," which started its activities last December. In collaboration with autonomous driving technology development companies, we are proceeding with studies to establish autonomous driving technology within logistics facility premises, including indoor areas. Against this backdrop, TRC and Dynamic Map Platform have created high-precision 3D map data of the entire logistics facility, including indoor spaces where GPS is weak and ramp ways with complex geometric shapes, so that Level 4 autonomous vehicles can run as seamlessly as human-driven vehicles within the facility. By utilizing this data, we will accelerate the study of autonomous driving technology in logistics facilities and also promote the study of a mechanism to link the information of autonomous vehicles with the operation management systems of logistics facilities in real time. This will enable information provision for Level 4 autonomous trucks to safely proceed to designated zones/bays upon arrival at the facility, as well as system linkage with tenant businesses in the facility. Through these efforts, TRC and Dynamic Map Platform will contribute to the further promotion of logistics efficiency and the resolution of social issues facing the logistics industry. *1 See below *2 Dedicated space where trucks park to load or unload cargo at a logistics facility ■ Company Comments (Heiwajima Autonomous Driving Council Member Companies) Daisuke Hoshina, General Manager, Logistics Business Division, TIER IV, Inc.
