Our goal is to improve localization systems performances in order to be able to navigate in large-scale urban environments. In this context, we first optimized CPU and memory consumption of a SLAM laser-based technique [52] by introducing a map manager system. This strategy allows a smooth navigation while saving and loading probabilities-grid submaps into/from a hard-disc in a transparent way (cf. [27] ). This work was validated and extended in the context of ITS Bordeaux demonstrations (VEDECOM demonstrator), where GPS information was integrated into SLAM environment Maps.
