1. A method for operating a vehicle, comprising:
- receiving by the vehicle via a communication network a digital map of a parking lot and at least one target position;
navigating autonomously, by the vehicle, in the parking lot to the target position on the basis of the digital map; and
autonomously parking, by the vehicle, at the target position,wherein a first route from a drop-off position to the target position is ascertained from the digital map and a second route from the target position to the drop-off position is ascertained from the digital map,wherein the vehicle receives multiple target positions via the communication network, and the vehicle travels to the target position as a function of priorities allocated to a respective target position, each of the priorities specifying a sequence in which the vehicle is to drive to the respective target position.
