According to one aspect, a method includes operating a vehicle in a first environment, the vehicle including a change detection system and at least one sensor configured to obtain data associated with the first environment, wherein operating the vehicle in the first environment includes obtaining the data associated with the first environment using the at least one sensor. The method also includes obtaining a context map associated with the first environment and comparing, using the change detection system, the data associated with the first environment and the context map to identify at least a first inconsistency between the data associated with the first environment and the context map. While the vehicle is operating, a resolution for the first inconsistency is determined, and the vehicle takes an action based on the resolution.
