  • Patent number: 11725949
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for determining an update area, an information processing device, and a program that appropriately determines an area for updating map information. The method for determining the update area is implemented by an update area determination system, and the update area determination system includes a point identification unit and a target area determination unit. The point identification unit executes a point identification procedure for identifying two points on a map, and the target area determination unit executes a target area determination procedure for determining a target area that is a target for an update when map information is updated using a distance between the two points and position information of a representative point preset for each of a plurality of areas formed by dividing the map.
