Methods, devices, systems, and non-transitory process-readable storage media for a computing device of an autonomous vehicle to generate real-time mappings of nearby vehicles. An embodiment method executed by a computing device may include operations for obtaining origin point coordinates via a first satellite-based navigation functionality, obtaining termination point coordinates via a second satellite-based navigation functionality, calculating a unit vector based on the obtained origin point coordinates and the obtained termination point coordinates, identifying a position, a direction, and an occupancy of the autonomous vehicle based on the obtained origin point coordinates, the calculated unit vector, and stored vehicle dimensions data (e.g., length, width, height), and transmitting a message using DSRC with the origin point coordinates, the stored vehicle dimensions data, and data for identifying the vehicle's direction. The computing device may compare the direction, position, and occupancy to data of nearby vehicles based on incoming messages received via DSRC.
