Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021191051A1] The invention relates to a method for identifying potential hazard points in road traffic by means of vehicles (1) networked with a central computer unit (2), wherein an event (E) indicating a potential hazard point is sensed and is transmitted, together with the geoposition of the event, to the central computer unit (2). According to the invention: - the transmitted event (E) is entered into a digital map as a hotspot if there is a plurality of similar events (E) with the same geoposition, - context information (K) is added to the transmitted event (E), - the hotspot is analyzed in order to detect a potential hazard point, - a current hotspot is compared with confirmed hotspots, - the hotspots are visualized on a platform (P), a geoposition of a hotspot of certain traffic-critical events (E) being transmitted to an authority for examination and/or as a warning message to any vehicle (1) near such an analyzed hotspot. The invention also relates to a device for identifying potential hazard points in road traffic.
