Abstract
A device for determining a value of fuel volume in a fuel container for a current point in time is configured to determine an estimated value of the fuel volume for the current point in time based on a previous value of the fuel volume for a previous point in time and based on extraction data relating to fuel extraction from the fuel container, determine a minimum value and/or a maximum value of the fuel volume for the current point in time based on a measurement value from a fill level sensor of the fuel container for the current point in time, and determine the value of the fuel volume for the current point in time based on the estimated value of the fuel volume and based on the minimum value and/or the maximum value of the fuel volume for the current point in time.
