Abstract
An update device for generating and updating a digital map in a vehicle is specified which resorts to position data from adjacent vehicles. The position data can be processed further within the update device in order to allow accurate and prompt updating of a subregion of the map without this requiring communication with the map manufacturer or service provider.
