System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to determining depths of a scene from a monocular image. In one embodiment, a method includes generating depth features from sensor data according to whether the sensor data includes sparse depth data. The method includes selectively injecting the depth features into a depth model. The method includes generating a depth map from at least a monocular image using the depth model that is guided by the depth features when injected. The method includes providing the depth map as depth estimates of objects represented in the monocular image.
