FIELD: vehicles.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to a device and method for assessing one's own position. Device for assessing own position performs the method in which the relative position of the target present near the vehicle and the vehicle is detected. Interval of movement of the vehicle and the position of the beginning of the bending of the path is assessed. Detected relative position is moved by the assessed moving interval and the moved relative position is accumulated as data about the target position. Additionally, produced cartographic information includes information about the position of the target. Data about the position of the target, present near the vehicle, and data about the position of the target, present between the current position of the vehicle and the assessed position of the beginning of the bend, are compared, from the accumulated data on the position of the target, with information on the position of the goal, included in the cartographic information, in order to assess the own position of the vehicle.
EFFECT: increased accuracy of assessment of own position on the path with a bend is provided.
