METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CREATING A LOCALIZATION MAP AND UPDATING SAID LOCALIZATION MAP

Method and device for generating a localization map for position determination of a material handling vehicle (2) in a logistics facility (4), having the following steps: generating an environmental map (6) by scanning objects (8) present in a detection area, acquiring a scaled map (10) comprising structurally fixed features (12), displaying the environmental map (6) and the scaled map (10), acquiring a correction command concerning an assignment between an object (8) present in the environmental map (6) and a structurally fixed feature (12) present in the scaled map (10), generating a correction matrix, undistorting the environmental map (6) using the correction matrix and outputting the undistorted environmental map (6) as a localization map for position determination of the material handling vehicle (2) in the logistics facility (4).
