This paper focuses on elements of a logical roadway environment designed to support real-time simulation of autonomous traffic. The model must provide information regarding all elements of an environment that affect the driving task. This representation must include both physical and logical aspects of the environment. The physical aspects are primarly the road layout, or the position of other vehicles. The logical aspects include information about passing lanes, lane direction, and object positioning.
