Abstract: A method for providing data for a driver assistance system of a motor vehicle includes communicating position data concerning a position of the motor vehicle to the driver assistance system, requesting additional information from a server if the driver assistance system requires additional information with respect to the position data, and communicating, in response to the requesting, the additional information from the server to the driver assistance system.

Abstract: A method estimates a course of a roadway in a vicinity of a vehicle based on a state function describing the course of the roadway, wherein the state function includes a clothoid spline. The method includes providing ambient measured data describing the course of the roadway at a current position of the vehicle, where the ambient measured data includes a polynomial function. The method also includes transforming the state function and the ambient measured data into a common coordinate system, and checking the ambient measured data for an error. If no error is detected, then the state function is adapted based on the ambient measured data in the common coordinate system. If an error is detected, then the error is stored.

Abstract: The method outputs graphic driving indications for assisting a motor vehicle driver in a driving maneuver. The graphic driving indications are displayed by a head-up display. A first graphic driving indication is in the form of a traffic lane change indication pointing out to the driver the direction from a traffic lane traveled at the beginning of the maneuver to a desired traffic lane. A second graphic driving indication is output in the form of a contact-analog traffic lane marking graphically emphasizing the desired traffic lane relative to other traffic lanes. A third graphic driving indication is in the form of a contact-analog maneuvering impulse including a driving funnel originating from the desired traffic lane and corresponding to the driving maneuver. A fourth graphic driving indication is a symbolic maneuvering display indication which symbolically displays the beginning driving maneuver after the vehicle enters into the driving funnel.
