Abstract
A method for detecting an unoccupied region within a parking facility, using at least one environment sensor disposed in a stationary manner within the parking facility, is furnished, at least encompassing the following: sensing measured data of at least one segment of the parking facility by way of at least one environment sensor; comparing the measured data with reference measured data in order to recognize a change in the segment of the parking facility; and detecting the segment as an unoccupied or non-unoccupied region as a function of the recognition of a change.
