A method of operating a vehicle includes determining a first plurality of known lane intervals at a first time with a controller of a guidance system of the vehicle, the known lane intervals available to receive the vehicle, determining a plurality of visible lane intervals at a second time after the first time with the controller based on perception data generated by the guidance system, and determining a plurality of occupied lane intervals at the second time with the controller based on the perception data generated by the guidance system. The method further includes determining a second plurality of known lane intervals at the second time as a union of the first plurality of known lane intervals, the plurality of visible lane intervals, and the plurality of occupied lane intervals.
