Abstract: A method for matching a digital road map to a digital reference road map, wherein the two road maps in each case include semantic information about objects represented on the two road maps. The method includes: associating objects on the road map with objects on the reference road map on the basis of the respective semantic information such that only objects with the same semantic information are associated with one another; matching the road map to the reference road map on the basis of the association, wherein the matching comprises creating a delta pose between the road map and the reference road map. A device, a computer program, and a machine-readable storage medium are also described.
