With a method of locating articles on a carrier plane on the basis of data which were obtained by a relative movement extending in a transport direction parallel to the carrier plane between a scanning plane and the articles and by a repeated carrying out of a total scan of the position of points on the articles and which include information on the position of the article points detected in the scanning plane, and on the basis of information on the relative position of the scanning plane and the articles in the direction of transport during a total scan, the steps are carried out repeatedly: reading of the data on the position of the article points on the articles in the scanning plane and detection of information on the relative position of the scanning plane and articles in the transport direction for a current total scan, determination of positions and extents of flanks of the articles, which substantially form a right angle with the carrier plane, from the data of the current total scan, determination of positions and lengths of edges of the articles parallel to the carrier plane on the basis of the positions and extents of the flanks as well as of the information on the relative position of the scanning plane and the articles in the transport direction in the current total scan and in preceding total scans, and defining of objects corresponding to articles from the positions and lengths of the edges parallel to the carrier plane
