Method and System for Interpolation and Method and System for Determining a Map of a Surrounding of a Vehicle

A computer-implemented method for interpolation comprises the following steps carried out by computer hardware components: determining an image-like input data structure, the image-like input data structure comprising a plurality of data points; determining a plurality of reference data points as a subset of the plurality of data points of the image-like input data structure; determining an image-like temporary data structure based on the image-like input data structure and a pre-determined processing operation; replacing data points of the image-like temporary data structure corresponding to the plurality of reference data points by the plurality of reference data points to obtain an image-like updated temporary data structure; and determining an image-like output data structure based on the image-like updated temporary data structure.
