Systems and methods are provided for constructing, using, and updating the sparse map for autonomous vehicle navigation. In one implementation, a non-transitory computer-readable medium includes a sparse map for autonomous vehicle navigation along a road segment. The sparse map includes a polynomial representation of a target trajectory for the autonomous vehicle along the road segment and a plurality of predetermined landmarks associated with the road segment, wherein the plurality of predetermined landmarks are spaced apart by at least 50 meters. The sparse map has a data density of no more than 1 megabyte per kilometer.
