Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method for operating a driver assistance system of a vehicle. The driver assistance system is designed to effect lateral guidance of the vehicle. For lateral guidance, the driver assistance system uses data which are provided to the driver assistance system by a vehicle-external memory apparatus. Support points are selected from the map data, which are changed by means of a computing apparatus of the vehicle into a data format usable for lateral guidance, and are then used by the driver assistance system for lateral guidance. The support points to be changed into the data format and can be used for lateral guidance are selected depending on a driving situation of the vehicle. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to a corresponding vehicle.
