A method for automatically establishing extrinsic parameters of a camera of a vehicle includes repeatedly establishing the extrinsic parameters of the camera during a measurement run, wherein sensor data are generated by a sensor each time the extrinsic parameters of the camera are established. The established parameters and the associated sensor data respectively are stored in a database. A convolutional neural network is trained based on the extrinsic parameters stored in the database and based on the sensor data. The extrinsic parameters of the camera are subsequently determined online by utilizing the trained convolutional neural network.
