Abstract
A method for fusing a first occupancy map and a second occupancy map comprises: determining at least one fusion parameter representing a potential dissimilarity between the first occupancy map and the second occupancy map and determining a fused occupancy map representing free and occupied space around the vehicle. The fused occupancy map is determined based on the first occupancy map, the second occupancy map, and a fusion rule. The fusion rule is configured to control the influence of the first occupancy map and/or the second occupancy map on the fused occupancy map based on the at least one fusion parameter.
