1. A method for providing information for a robot device configured to provide a seam on a motor vehicle component, the method comprising:
creating a construction space model for a motor vehicle comprising the motor vehicle component;
recording respective seams to be provided on the motor vehicle in the construction space model;
creating a seam primary key for each seam and storing the seam primary key for each seam in the construction space model, wherein the seam primary key characterizes at least one property of the corresponding seam; and
controlling the robot device in dependence on the construction space model with the respective seam primary keys of the respective seams.
 
10. An electronic computing device, configured to:
create a construction space model for a motor vehicle comprising a motor vehicle component;
record respective seams to be provided on the motor vehicle by a robot device in the construction space model;
create a seam primary key for each seam and store the seam primary key for each seam in the construction space model, wherein the seam primary key characterizes at least one property of the corresponding seam; and
control the robot device in dependence on the construction space model with the respective seam primary keys of the respective seams.
