The present disclosure is related to generating map data explicitly indicating a total drivable surface, which may include multiple types of drivable surfaces. For instance, a given portion of a map may include map data indicating a combination of various drivable surfaces, such as road segments, lane properties, intersections, parking areas, shoulders, driveways, etc. Examples of the present disclosure join these different types of drivable surfaces into combined map data that explicitly indicates a total drivable surface, such as a perimeter boundary indicating or representing a transition from a drivable surface to a non-drivable surface. The map data indicating the total drivable surface may be searched to determine information related to a drivable surface boundary, such as location and type. This boundary information may be used in various contexts, such as when planning a trajectory or remotely controlling a vehicle.
