Abstract
A method for determining an orientation of an industrial truck relative to a structure comprises recording an image of the structure using a camera mounted to the industrial truck, where the structure includes at least one horizontal element. At least two geometric quantities are determined from the recorded image that correspond to the at least one horizontal element. The at least two geometric quantities are then used to determine an angle of intersection between an image plane and a vertical plane through the at least one horizontal element.
