Abstract

A method and a system for mapping a surroundings of at least one vehicle and for locating the at least one vehicle. Measurement data of the vehicle's surroundings are ascertained by at least one radar sensor of the at least one vehicle, the measurement data of the at least one radar sensor being aggregated. The aggregated measurement data are compared with already existing aggregated measurement data. The aggregated measurement data are optimized by reducing measurement errors based on the comparison between the aggregated measurement data and the already existing aggregated measurement data. A map is generated or updated on the basis of the optimized aggregated measurement data, and the at least one vehicle being located on the generated or updated map by comparing the ascertained measurement data with the generated map.
