A method for adjusting a luminous intensity of headlamp light of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes at least one headlamp producing the headlamp light. The at least one headlamp includes a plurality of individually controllable light sources which create different partial areas of a light emission pattern of the headlamp light. The method includes obtaining a ground geometry of a ground area which can be illuminated by the headlamp light in the vicinity of the vehicle, calculating an illuminance producible by each of the light sources on the ground area using the obtained ground geometry, comparing the calculated illuminances with respective reference values, and adjusting a luminous intensity of the light sources to achieve the associated reference values of the illuminance.
