A system for generating confidence values for objects in a digital road map comprising a backend and an object recognition device including: a capture unit, an evaluation unit, a positioning unit, and a transceiver. The capture unit captures surroundings data of a vehicle. The positioning unit determines a position of the captured surroundings data and objects contained therein. The evaluation unit recognizes the objects and concealed objects based on the surroundings data and associates them with position information. The transceiver transmits information generated by the evaluation unit to the backend. The backend generates or updates the map. Each of the objects in the map has an associated confidence value. The backend adjusts the confidence values based on the received data. The backend does not reduce the confidence value of an object if there is a corresponding concealed object in the received data.
