On March 3, 2023, Ministry of Natural Resources of China (MNR) issued the Guidelines on the Basic Map Standard System for Intelligent Vehicles (2023 version) (hereinafter referred to as “the Guidelines”). It specifies the standard framework, sets up construction goals for 2025 and 2030, as well as providing status updates of the standards covering in the system.
The Guidelines outline the framework of the standard system for intelligent vehicle basic map as follows:
The Guidelines presents a further standard list under the current system with latest status:

For foreign stakeholders, the formulation of the standard system will take a period of time, but considering the importance of map management (some published standards are already national mandatory ones) along with the possible vast amount of data that may initiated by intelligent vehicles, it is advised to identify the key standards in the list and follow-up on the future updates to evaluate and minimize possible business impacts.
