Abstract: A communication device is a communication device to be installed on a moving body, including a recording unit that records data in which a state value indicating a state of the moving body is recorded, a recording data control unit that controls recording of the recording unit, and a transmission unit that transmits the data recorded by the recording unit to a server device. The recording data control unit records, in the recording unit, first data that is the data in which the state value is changed to a particular value after the moving body is started, and restricts re-recording of the first data in the recording unit until a prescribed condition is established after the first data is recorded.

Abstract: A minimization method for minimizing the size of a file is provided, the minimization method including preparing an absolute value length that is equal to or larger than the largest data length among the data lengths of the data of a plurally of coordinates, and a plurality of relative value lengths equal to or less than the absolute value length, and identifying a relative value length causing minimization of the size among a plurality of relative value lengths.
