Title:
POSITION REGISTRATION DEVICE, ROUTE SEARCH DEVICE, POSITION REGISTRATION METHOD, POSITION REGISTRATION PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/105519
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A position registration section (100) acquires, by using an acquisition section
(101), information on movement conditions that represents movement conditions
of a mobile body, and a position specifying section (102) specifies the current
position of the mobile body based on the movement condition information and map
information. Then, when it is specified by the position specifying section (102)
that the current position of the mobile body is a point veered off a road and is a
place other than the road, a storage section (103) temporarily stores the veering-off
point on the road. Further, if it is determined that the mobile body is parked and
such determination is made while it is determined by the parking determination
section (104) that the current position of the mobile body is the place other than
the road, a search section (105) searches for a ground feature that is present
around the position where the mobile body is parked. Then, when a ground feature
that is present around the parking position is found by the search section (105),
a registration section (106) registers in a memory section (not shown) the veering-off
point as the position of the entrance to the parking lot of the ground feature that
was found by the search.
