A method and a system for improved object marking in sensor data, as the result of which an at least partially automated annotation of objects or object classes in a recorded data set is possible. The method provides that a scene is detected in a first state by at least one sensor. An association of a first object marking with at least one object contained in the scene in a first data set containing the scene in the first state then takes place. The similar or matching scene is subsequently detected in a second state that is different from the first state by the at least one sensor, and an at least partial acceptance of the first object marking, contained in the first data set, for the object recognized in the second state of the scene as a second object marking in a second data set takes place.
