AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing methods for integrating three-dimensional maps created by multiple mobile bodies are burdensome and limit the freedom of movement paths during map creation due to the requirement that start and end positions must be within overlapping grid areas.
Method used
An information processing device that acquires and associates map elements with identifiable shooting information, recognizes common areas based on characteristic information, and integrates maps by aligning these common areas across different movement paths.
Benefits of technology
Enables accurate integration of maps while maintaining high freedom of movement routes by using characteristic information to identify and align overlapping regions, enhancing map integration efficiency.

Abstract
To provide an information processing apparatus that can accurately integrate maps while maintaining the degree of freedom of a moving route in map creation.SOLUTION: An information processing apparatus acquires map data generated accompanying the movement of a movable body, acquires characteristic information for identification of a partial area of a moving route of the movable body, records the map data in association with the characteristic information, compares the characteristic information recorded in association with the map data at a predetermined time point with the plurality of pieces of characteristic information recorded in association with the map data before the time point to recognize a common area, and integrates the plurality of pieces of map data based on the recognized common area.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
