A method for fusing various sensor data of a vehicle within the scope of an object identification (OI). At least one identification feature (IF) detected by a first sensor (FS) and at least one IF detected by a second sensor (SS) for identifying at least one object in the vehicle's surroundings are received. In the task, at least one IF detected by the SS for inspecting the OI is received, the IF detected by the FS and the IF detected by the SS each representing a first measured variable (MV) and the IF detected by the SS representing a second MV independent of the first MV. In a further task, the IF detected by the FS is linked to the IF detected by the SS to generate a feature linkage. In a third task, the plausibility of the feature linkage is checked using the IF detected by the SS.
