SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR LOCALLY ALIGNING MAP DATA

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to locally aligning features within a map. In one embodiment, a method includes segmenting map data that forms the map using a first grid to divide the map into a first set of tiles and a second grid to divide the map into a second set of tiles that are offset and overlap the first set of tiles. The method includes analyzing neighbor tiles in relation to a patch tile based, at least in part, on shared features between the patch tile and the neighbor tiles to identify external misalignments between one or more of the neighbor tiles and the patch tile. The neighbor tiles are from a different one of the first grid and the second grid. The method includes adjusting alignment of the neighbor tiles within the map according to the external misalignments for the neighbor tiles.
