High Definition (HD) Map for Autonomous Vehicle Global Market Report 2024

The HD map for autonomous vehicle market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1.4 billion in 2023 to $1.49 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%. The historical growth can be attributed to an increased demand for autonomous vehicles, a heightened emphasis on safety and accuracy, advancements in mapping and localization algorithms, regulatory support for autonomous driving technology, and an increase in consumer acceptance of self-driving technology.

The HD map for autonomous vehicle market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.92 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the widespread adoption of cloud-based mapping solutions, the development of real-time updating capabilities for High-Definition (HD) maps, an increasing focus on cybersecurity for mapping data, a heightened emphasis on environmental sustainability in mapping processes, and a growing demand for high-definition 3D mapping solutions. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the rise of hybrid HD map solutions that combine satellite, aerial, and ground data, the emergence of standardized formats for HD map data exchange, the development of HD maps tailored for specialized environments such as construction sites and industrial facilities, a focus on energy efficiency and sustainability in map data collection methods, and the evolution of HD maps to support Level 4 and Level 5 autonomous driving capabilities.

The rise in traffic congestion is expected to fuel the growth of high-definition (HD) maps for autonomous vehicles in the future. Traffic congestion describes the situation of overcrowded and slow-moving traffic on roads, resulting from factors such as high vehicle volumes, limited road capacity, and adverse conditions. HD maps for autonomous vehicles contribute to reducing traffic congestion by enabling precise navigation, optimizing routes, minimizing traffic incidents through real-time updates, and coordinating vehicles for smoother traffic flow. For instance, in January 2023, as per the global Traffic Scorecard 2022 report by INRIX, a US-based transportation analytics and connected car service company, the average American driver lost 36 hours due to congestion in 2021, costing $564 in wasted time, while in 2022, this increased to 51 hours and $869 in wasted time. Hence, the growing traffic congestion is propelling the expansion of the HD map for autonomous vehicle market.

Leading companies in the HD map for autonomous vehicle market are intensifying their efforts to develop advanced solutions, such as highly automated mapping technology platforms, to transform how maps are created, updated, and utilized. Highly automated mapping technology involves advanced systems and processes that use artificial intelligence, machine learning, and sensor data to autonomously generate and update detailed maps with minimal human intervention, typically for applications in autonomous vehicles, urban planning, and infrastructure management. For instance, in January 2023, HERE Technologies, a Netherlands-based location data and technology company, introduced UniMap, a highly automated mapping technology facilitating the rapid creation of digital maps and location products. This platform offers advanced mapping capabilities for the HD map for autonomous vehicle market, leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) models to process extensive vehicle sensor data and provide up-to-date map features such as road signs and speed limits. HERE's swift mapping and updating capabilities meet the critical need for precise high-definition (HD) maps, supporting the safe and efficient operation of autonomous vehicles and positioning HERE as a leader in driving the growth of the autonomous vehicle market.

In January 2023, Luminar Technologies Inc., a US-based automotive technology company, acquired Civil Maps, a US-based provider of high-definition mapping and localization platforms. This acquisition significantly strengthens Luminar Technologies Inc.'s presence in the high-definition (HD) map for autonomous vehicles market by integrating advanced mapping technology with LiDAR sensors, enhancing safety and capabilities, and reinforcing Luminar's market leadership in offering comprehensive solutions for autonomous vehicles.
