1. Road paver which comprises a movable screed and a layer thickness measuring device, having at least two sensors, wherein one of the sensors defines a coordinate system and the sensors are formed to carry out a distance measurement to the pavement plane at intervals in order to determine a distance between the sensor and a point on the surface of the plane, said point being registered by at least one of the sensors, and wherein the layer thickness measuring device is formed to combine as vectors the distance to the plane measured by the sensor that defines the coordinate system with a movement, relative to the plane and caused by the driving of the road paver, of the coordinate system defined by the one sensor in order to determine a first vector that, together with a second vector, can be used by the layer thickness measuring device for determining the layer thickness of the laying material.
