Abstract

A method for generating a data set grid (2) containing location-based data includes: providing a data set (1) containing location-based data for a region (5), wherein the location-based data include at least location-based radar data, location-based LIDAR data, and location-based GCP data; providing a grid, which subdivides the region into subregions, having a plurality of grid cells (3, 3′); assigning the location-based data to a grid cell (3, 3′); storing the location-based data, grid cell by grid cell, in a file (6) in each case in such a manner that the file contains the location-based data of a grid cell (3, 3′). A method for transmitting location-based data between a server and a mobile terminal includes: transmitting (V1) a location or a region from the mobile terminal to the server; assigning (V2) the location to a first grid cell (3) of a grid of a region (5); transmitting (V5) a file (6) containing location-based data, which include at least location-based radar data, location-based LIDAR data, and location-based GCP data and belong to the assigned first grid cell (3), from the server to the mobile terminal.
