Abstract

The invention relates to a charging/discharging station (2) for charging or discharging an at least partly battery-operated vehicle (14) via an inductively coupled pair of coils. The charging/discharging station (2) comprises in particular a computer device (12), in which spatial coordinates of parking areas (4) are stored and which has means to navigate a vehicle (14) to the parking area (4) by means of communication units (8, 16) by using image data of the vehicle (14) recorded by means of a camera device (10) and by using physical coordinates of the parking areas (4). The invention further relates to a method for operating such a loading/discharging station (2).
