Claim 16:
17. A method for tracking moving objects, wherein the moving objects are motor vehicles driving on a road, in which
information emitted by the moving objects with data relating to at least one non-object-identifying information parameter is captured at different locations at different times, wherein the non-object-identifying information parameter is a type of vehicle and a length of vehicle, wherein
first information is captured with first non-object-identifying parameter data from a first group of the objects, which comprises at least one object, in a first information capture region along a tracking route and for a defined direction of movement,
a data profile specific to the first group, including at least one of a group footprint and a group stamp of the object group, is generated from the captured first non-object-identifying parameter data, and the data profile specific to the first group is provided for data evaluation based on a similarity comparison of data profiles,
second information is respectively captured with second non-object-identifying parameter data from a second group of the objects, which comprises at least one object, in at least one further, second information capture region spaced apart from the first information capture region along the tracking route,
a data profile specific to the second group is respectively generated from the respectively captured second non-object-identifying parameter data, and
the respectively generated data profile specific to the second group is provided for the data evaluation based on the data profile similarity comparison,
each data profile specific to the second group is compared with the data profile specific to the first group during the data evaluation using parameter data,
if it is determined, during the data profile similarity comparison carried out in each case, that the correlation between the first non-object-identifying parameter data and the second non-object-identifying parameter data is so great that the parameter data at least partially correspond, a statement can be made on the successful tracking of at, least some of the objects captured in the first group along the tracking route between the two information capture regions and an item of tracking information is generated that the second group comprises at least some of the objects of the first group, otherwise such a statement is not possible and the tracking information is not generated.
