Abstract
Disclosed is a method for determining the position of a vehicle, in which highly accurate localization data for positions of the vehicle are determined when traveling along a route. Odometric measured variables for the own odometry of the vehicle are captured when traveling along the route. The highly accurate localization data determined and the odometric measured variables captured are jointly evaluated. The own odometry of the vehicle is corrected on the basis of the evaluation. An error model is used to calculate a vehicle-specific drift for the own odometry of the vehicle and to continually correct the own odometry of the vehicle provided highly accurate localization data can be determined. The corrected own odometry of the vehicle can then be used in areas in which highly accurate localization data cannot be determined in order to determine the position of the vehicle.
