Zusammenfassung:A method for generating training data is disclosed. The method may include executing a simulation process. The simulation process may include traversing a virtual, forward-looking sensor over a virtual road surface defining at least one virtual railroad crossing. During the traversing, the virtual sensor may be moved with respect to the virtual road surface as dictated by a vehicle-motion model modeling motion of a vehicle driving on the virtual road surface while carrying the virtual sensor. Virtual sensor data characterizing the virtual road surface may be recorded. The virtual sensor data may correspond to what a real sensor would have output had it sensed the road surface in the real world.
