Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the position-selective activation of at least one driver assistance function and / or driving function for a vehicle (200) having a control unit module (270) for executing at least one function (285) of an ADAS / ADS (280), comprising the following method steps:- Acquiring fleet data (320) of a plurality of vehicles in a fleet and transmitting the fleet data (320) to a data acquisition module (300), wherein the fleet data (320) contains at least information about the use of the function (285) of the ADAS / ADS (280) and position data for geographical locations;- Creating a usage profile (370) from the fleet data (320), wherein an assignment is made between position data and usage information;- Acquiring position data (250) of the vehicle (200) and transmitting the position data (250) to an evaluation module (400);- comparing the position data (250) with the usage profile (370) regarding the use of the function (285) of the ADAS / ADS (280);- generating a positive analysis result (470) if a successful application of the function (285) of the ADAS / ADS (280) for the position data (250) is entered in the usage profile (370);- transmitting the positive analysis result (470) to a function module (500);- activating the function (285) in the control unit module (270) by activation signals (550) of the function module (500) in the spatially selective area of the position data (250);
