A sensor device for a vehicle that traveling on a predetermined route, particularly a rail vehicle, includes a plurality of sensors configured to detect movement of the sensor device and/or physical variables of an environment of the sensor device, and to issue corresponding measurement values. The sensors include magnetic sensors for detecting orientation and/or pressure sensors and/or real time clocks. A data storage unit is configured to store reference measurement values for the sensors, relating to predetermined positions on the predetermined route. A computing unit is configured to compare the measurement values issued by the sensors with the stored reference measurement values and, when the measurement values issued by the sensors coincide with the reference measurement values, to issue, as a current position of the sensor device, a position corresponding to the respective reference measurement values. A corresponding vehicle and a corresponding method are also provided.
