  • Publication number: 20240059320
    Abstract: A method for monitoring at least one motor vehicle having a vehicle system configured to guide the motor vehicle in a completely automatic manner and a communication device configured to communicate with a remote computing device outside the motor vehicle, wherein, during the completely automatic guidance of the motor vehicle by the vehicle system an item of guidance information describing the completely automatic guidance and an item of vehicle information comprising an item of location information comprising at least a current position of the motor vehicle are transmitted to the computing device. The vehicle information received by the computing device is evaluated together with an item of driving environment information, which is available in the computing device and is based on the position of the motor vehicle, to form an item of status information relating to the motor vehicle. The item of status information and is displayed to a person carrying out the monitoring on a display device.
