An attributed roadway trajectory comprises at least one ordered series of attributed roadway trajectory points, which are spaced along a curve that is defined in a terrestrial coordinate frame and tracks an along-roadway physical feature of a real-world roadway segment portrayed in a point cloud. Any arbitrary attributed roadway trajectory point on the curve passes a predetermined proximity test for proximity to point cloud points discriminated as representing part of the along-roadway physical feature. Each attributed roadway trajectory point has at least one attribute value representing a characteristic of the real-world roadway segment at a position on the real-world roadway segment spatially associated with the attributed roadway trajectory point. A control system of a self-driving road vehicle can use the attribute value(s) to adjust control of the self-driving road vehicle based on sensor-independent roadway data (e.g. where the position of the attributed roadway trajectory point(s) remains outside of sensor range).
