DETERMINING A CURRENT FOCUS AREA OF A CAMERA IMAGE BASED ON A POSITION OF A VEHICLE CAMERA ON

The invention relates to a method for providing an environment image (36) on the basis of a camera image (30) from a vehicle camera (14, 16, 18, 20) of a vehicle (10) for monitoring an environment (28) of the vehicle (10), the camera image (30) having a camera image region with a camera resolution for further processing, in particular by a driving assistance system of the vehicle (10), the method comprises the steps of determining a position of a vehicle camera (14, 16, 18, 20) on the vehicle (10), capturing at least one current motion parameter (44) of the vehicle (10), determining a current focus area (32) within a camera image (30) based on the position of the vehicle camera (14, 16, 18, 20) on the vehicle (10) and the at least one current motion parameter (44), and transferring pixels of the camera image (30) into an environment image (36), wherein pixels from the current focus area (32) are transferred at a first resolution into a first image area (40) of the environment image (36) corresponding to the c
