A method includes obtaining medial axes of buffers around guidance lines of taxiways of an airport. The buffers define a taxiway polygon representation of the taxiways. The method includes identifying a plurality of intersection points of the medial axes. The method includes segmenting the taxiway polygon into taxiway segments with segment lines based on the plurality of intersection points, where a particular segment line associated with an intersection point is offset a distance from the intersection point and is at a particular angle relative to a medial axis extending from the intersection point. The method further includes generating a map of the airport that includes the taxiway segments.
