The invention relates to a method for relocating objects in images. An object reference is correlated with image values. When the object is partially covered in the image, the image values which are located within the covered area in the image are replaced by grey scale values of the object before the correlation is carried out. A system for relocating objects in images is provided with a camera for filming the image, an imagery storage unit for storing an object reference and an imagery processor for replacing grey scale values which are located within the covered area, whereby said grey scale values are replaced by grey scale values of the object reference. The inventive system is also provided with a correlation unit which correlates the image with the object reference, whereby the image has been changed by the imagery processor.
