Abstract

A method and corresponding system and computer program for a highly-automated-vehicle (HAV), the method including: providing a digital-map; determining a present vehicle-position relative to the digital-map; providing at least one setpoint property of at least one feature in an HAV-environment; using at least one sensor to detect at least one actual property of a feature in the HAV-environment based at least in part on the setpoint property; comparing the actual property to the setpoint property and determining at least one difference-value based on the comparison; and verifying the digital-map, the digital-map being classified as not up-to-date if the difference-value reaches/exceeds a specified-threshold-value of a deviation, and being classified as up-to-date if the difference-value remains below the specified-threshold-value of the deviation.
