Claim 0:
1. A method for guiding a vehicle along a first route on a first map of a navigation system based on a second route on a second map of an interaction system, wherein the navigation system comprises a geographical positioning device, and wherein the first map and the second map comprise path networks in the area of the vehicle, the method comprising:
receiving the second route on the second map from the interaction system, wherein the second route is a predetermined polyline through the path network of the second map from a starting point to a destination point, the predetermined polyline further comprising a plurality of second points between the starting point and the destination point;
selecting support points on the second map,
wherein the support points comprise a subset of the plurality of second points of the second route;

determining first points on the first map;
wherein the first points correspond in pairs to the support points;

determining the first route, wherein the first route forms a polyline through the path network of the first map from the starting point to the destination point, wherein the polyline further comprising the first points between the starting point and the destination point,
characterized in that the first route is determined by means of trace matching based on a geometric similarity to the second route;

obtaining a current position of the vehicle from the geographical positioning device; and
using the navigation system to guide the vehicle along the first route in relation to the current position.
