Real-World Mapping of Operational Design Domain Risk Zones for Urban Autonomous Environmental Service Vehicle
Autonomous Environmental Service Vehicles (AESVs) require safety verification that is distinct from passenger AVs because of their dual-task nature. This study proposes a dual-perspective ODD risk assessment framework using three months of field data (Oct–Dec 2025) from an AESV deployed in Jeju City, South Korea. The PCA-weighted Enhanced CII quantifies the internal mechanical interference, whereas entropy-weighted risk scores combined with k-means clustering identify external hazard zones. The CII declined from 1.25 to 1.12, confirming progressive adaptation of compensatory control, whereas spatial mapping revealed persistent hotspots at intersections, sharp curves, and commercial districts, indicating that ODD boundaries are governed by road geometry and land use.
