Summary:A method for ascertaining features in an environment of at least one mobile unit for implementation of a localization and/or mapping by a control unit. In the course of the method, sensor measurement data of the environment are received, the sensor measurement data received are transformed by an alignment algorithm into a cost function and a cost map is generated with the aid of the cost function, a convergence map is generated based on the alignment algorithm. At least one feature is extracted from the cost map and/or the convergence map and stored, the at least one feature being provided in order to optimize a localization and/or mapping. A control unit, a computer program, and a machine-readable storage medium are also described.
