Abstract
A method and device for creating a digital map. The method includes: receiving first training data sets; generating second training data sets by means of a generative neural network by determining a second, perturbed image of the same surrounding area in each case for each first image, wherein each second training data set represents the second image of the corresponding first image; training a further neural network; receiving surrounding area data sets, which in each case represent a surrounding area image of a vehicle surrounding area, wherein these surrounding area data sets comprise a position description of the corresponding vehicle surrounding area; creating the digital map by merging the surrounding area images, depending on the position description, by means of a scan matching method, wherein the scan matching method includes at least the further neural network, and a step of providing the digital map.
