Claim One:
1. A method for mapping surroundings of a vehicle, the method comprising: detecting objects in the surroundings of the vehicle with the aid of sensors, wherein a detected object of the detected objects is described by two coordinate points and two position fuzziness values, wherein the two coordinate points represent opposite boundaries of the detected object, wherein each of the two position fuzziness values is determined separately, and wherein each coordinate point of the two coordinate points is associated with one distinct position fuzziness value of the two position fuzziness values determined separately; and storing the two coordinate points and the two position fuzziness values in an interface in the form of data which may be accessed by a driver assistance system of the vehicle; and creating a mapping of the surroundings of the vehicle based, at least in part, on the two coordinate points and the two position fuzziness values, wherein the created mapping is used to determine a collision probability of the vehicle.
