METHOD FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT ROAD USERS

A method for providing information detected by on-board sensors about road users in the surroundings of a vehicle involves providing the detected information as data structures representing vectors. Every vector is thereby associated with a cell of a predefined vehicle-mounted occupancy grid, in which a road user described by the respective information is situated. Every vector at least includes coordinates of an associated cell, in which the respective road user is situated, a speed vector, which represents a speed of the respective road user, a time stamp, which represents a point in time of a detection of the respective road user, and an object class, which represents a type of the respective road user.
