1. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing processor-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
receiving first log data associated with a first autonomous vehicle, the first log data comprising one or more of first sensor data associated with first sensors of the first autonomous vehicle or first perception data associated with a first perception component of the first autonomous vehicle;
receiving second log data associated with a second autonomous vehicle, the second log data comprising one or more of second sensor data associated with second sensors of the second autonomous vehicle or second perception data associated with a second perception component of the second autonomous vehicle;
determining that at least a first portion of the first log data is time related to at least a second portion of the second log data, based at least in part on:
an object being detected in the first portion of the first log data and being detected in the second portion of the second log data, or
the first autonomous vehicle being detected in the second log data of the second autonomous vehicle; and
generating object data for the object based at least in part on the first portion of the first log data and the second portion of the second log data.
