Abstract

A process for the specification of position data, in particular geographic coordinates, for several routes of at least one vehicle. In order to reduce the necessary volume of data, the routes are divided into partial routes such that route sections that are common to at least two routes form common partial routes, with at least one point of each partial route being used for the specification of position data.
