Techniques are described for autonomous driving operation that includes receiving, by a computer located in a vehicle, an image from a camera located on the vehicle while the vehicle is operating on a road, wherein the image includes a plurality of lanes of the road; for each of the plurality of lanes: obtaining, from a map database stored in the computer, a set of values that describe locations of boundaries of a lane; dividing the lane into a plurality of polygons; rendering the plurality of polygons onto the image; and determining identifiers of lane segments of the lane; determining one or more characteristics of a lane segment on which the vehicle is operating based on an identifier of the lane segment; and causing the vehicle to perform a driving related operation in response to the one or more characteristics of the lane segment on which the vehicle is operating.
