Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system and method for estimating free space and assigning free space probabilities in point cloud data associated with an autonomous vehicle traveling on a surface, including taking into account sensor noise, sensor availability, obstacle heights, and distance of obstacles from the sensor. System and method can include determining surface planes and classifying point cloud points according to whether or not the points fall on surface planes, among other factors.
