Abstract
A data provision apparatus for providing position data and additional data to a higher-ranking unit comprises a signal preparation unit that is configured to receive position data and to receive additional data, to combine the position data and the additional data with one another for a joint data transmission and to subsequently output them in a combined form. In this respect, the data provision apparatus further comprises a signal processing unit that is configured to receive position data from a position detection apparatus and to receive additional data from an additional data acquisition apparatus, to bring the additional data into a defined relationship, preferably a temporal relationship, with the position data and to subsequently output at least the additional data to the signal preparation unit.
