A method for high-resolution 3D-localization microscopy of a sample having fluorescence emitters, in which the fluorescence emitters are excited to emit fluorescent radiation and the sample is displayed with spatial resolution in wide-field microscopy. Excitation is caused such that at least some fluorescence emitters are isolated. A three-dimensional localization is determined in a localization analysis, which includes a z-coordinate, x-coordinate as well as a y-coordinate orthogonal thereto, for each isolated fluorescence emitter. A table of localization imprecision is provided. Localization imprecision being determined for each localized fluorescence emitter by accessing the table of localization imprecision.
