In a method for the computer-assisted processing of measurements of features in a radio network, each of a plurality of measurements is associated with a base station and describes a feature of a field transmitted by a mobile object at the associated base station and/or a field transmitted by the associated base station at the mobile object. A plurality of evaluation units communicate with the base stations, one or more base stations of the radio network being associated with each evaluation unit. The evaluation units evaluate features in the radio network, a suitable evaluation unit always being determined by the position of the mobile object to evaluate the features. Since the feature evaluation is distributed, not all evaluated data in the network is lost in case an evaluation unit breaks down. In addition, using multiple evaluation units ensures that enough computer capacity is available to process the measurements in the method.

In a method for the computer-aided classification of measurements for the featured-based positioning of a mobile object in a predetermined region, for which one or more starting regions are defined through which the mobile object can leave and enter the predetermined region, each measurement is specified by a time and features of several base stations. The measurements are classified based on the relative base stations positions and the base station features, wherein a respective first class measurement is categorized as a measurement in a mobile object position inside the predetermined region and a respective second class measurement is categorized as a potential measurement in a mobile object position outside of the predetermined region. Subsequently, for a respective second class measurement, the path of the mobile object is tracked to determine whether the respective measurement is located inside the predetermined region to be also assigned to the first class.
