Abstract: A method for locating a highly automated vehicle (HAV) in a digital location map, including: providing a digital map in a driver assistance system of the HAV; determining a current vehicle position, and locating the vehicle position in the digital map; identifying a route segment currently traveled by the HAV in the digital map; providing at least one traveled comparison trajectory of at least one additional vehicle along the currently traveled route segment; comparison of the at least one comparison trajectory with the currently traveled route segment as indicated in the digital map, and ascertaining a difference value as a result of the comparison; and ascertaining an up-to-dateness of the currently traveled route segment in the digital map, at least partly on the basis of the difference value.

Abstract: A method for predicting a construction-related driving-route change of a driving route for a vehicle includes at least a step of reading in and a step of detecting. In the step of reading in, at least one image signal is read in, which represents an image, recorded by the vehicle, of a construction-site parameter in the environment of the driving route. In the step of detecting, the impending driving-route change is detected using the image signal.

Abstract: A method, a processing unit which carries out the method, and a system including the processing unit for updating a digital map for locating motor vehicles are provided. In the case of the method for updating a digital map for locating motor vehicles, surroundings information is detected by a vehicle for the purpose of updating the digital map and the detected surroundings information is compared to the surroundings information which is stored on the digital map. In this case, the vehicle is located on the digital map, which means that the location or position of the vehicle on the digital map is known. For the purpose of detecting the surroundings information, the vehicle is navigated along a first route, whose most recently carried out comparison of surroundings information dates back the longest as compared to at least one further optional route.
