Claim 10:
11. A system for localizing a device within an environment, comprising:
a processing unit configured to acquire a first location information that is representative of a first specified position within the environment;
wherein the processing unit is configured to acquire a first sensor information that is representative of the first specified position within the environment;
wherein the processing unit is configured to allocate the acquired first sensor information to the acquired first location information to generate a first condition information that is unique for the first specified position within the environment;
a storage unit configured to store a knowledge base having stored therein a plurality of condition information comprising at least the first condition information;
a vehicle configured to provide a current sensor information indicating a current condition of the environment present at the current position of the vehicle; and
a localization unit configured to localize the vehicle within the environment based on a matching between the current sensor information and the plurality of condition information stored in the knowledge base,
wherein the plurality of condition information stored in the knowledge base is used to establish a multi-dimensional map for at least a portion of the environment, wherein the multi-dimensional map assigns one condition information of the plurality of condition information to each one of a plurality of specified positions within the environment.
