1. A method of optical chassis measurement of motor vehicles, comprising the steps of providing a measuring arrangement equipped with at least one measuring device; associating one or more image capturing devices with one another in terms of their position and location and recording by the one or more image capturing devices a surface geometry of a vehicle or measurement points arranged on the vehicle; carrying out a step selected from the group consisting of a referencing, an orientation, and both of the at least one measuring device in relation to a measuring station with use of reference features that are arranged or present at particular measuring station coordinates in the measuring station; based on orientation data and/or association data obtained and based on measurement data obtained during execution of an axle measurement, carrying out an evaluation in an evaluation unit in order to ascertain chassis data; and measuring the measuring station coordinates of the references features once or at chronological intervals by a preset test feature arrangement in the measuring station in that at least one measuring device performs an image captured a test feature arrangement from at least two different points of view, with the reference features to be measured being contained in captured images and with positions of the test features and reference features recorded by the measuring device constituting observations in a system of equations, whose unknowns are determined by the evaluation unit through a compensation process.
