Abstract

The invention relates to a method for operating an environment-monitoring system for a motor vehicle, by means of which the positions of objects in the environment laterally adjacent to, in front of, and behind the vehicle are determined. According to the invention, in order to improve the accuracy of the environment-monitoring system, the motion path is determined for a stationary object which the vehicle passes, and said motion path is used to determine the angular deviation with which the motion path determined for the stationary object deviates from the motion path of the vehicle.
