Method for Coordinating an Autonomous Vehicle Fleet, and Vehicle Fleet Coordination System
A method for coordinating an autonomous vehicle fleet that includes a plurality of autonomous motor vehicles in a predetermined first region by a vehicle fleet coordination system. The method includes coordinating the autonomous vehicle fleet depending on a first regional environment profile of the predetermined first region, where a position in the predetermined first region dependent on the first regional environment profile is autonomously approached by a first autonomous motor vehicle of the plurality of autonomous motor vehicles. The method further includes generating the first regional environment profile on a basis of a second regional environment profile which is stored in an electronic computing device of the vehicle fleet coordination system and which is generated for a second region independent of the predetermined first region.
