A method for deriving a wear state of a soil interaction component of a soil processing implement of a construction vehicle. The method comprises steps of 1.) providing a geometry model regarding an assumed shape of the soil interaction component, 2.) engaging the soil by using the soil interaction component and tracking a motion for deriving tracking data of the soil interaction component, 3.) using the tracking data and the geometry model to derive an expected 3D surface model, 4.) providing visual 3D perception data of a soil area affected by the engaging, such that the visual 3D perception data and the expected 3D surface model can be referenced to one another, and 5.) comparing the visual 3D perception data with the expected 3D surface model and, based thereof, determining a deviation of an effective shape of the soil interaction component from the assumed shape.
