Abstract

Disclosed are methods and systems for environment detection in which a first vehicle detects its vehicle environment with at least one sensor, wherein the first vehicle transmits sensor data of the sensor pertaining to its vehicle environment to an off-board server device; at least one second vehicle with at least one sensor transmits sensor data of the sensor pertaining to its vehicle environment to the off-board server device; the off-board server device merges the transmitted sensor data of the vehicles and generates an environmental model of the vehicle environment of the first vehicle on the basis thereof; the environmental model that is generated is subsequently transmitted by the off-board server device to the first vehicle.
