  • Publication number: 20240177606
    Abstract: An information management device includes a travel route acquisition unit, a satellite image acquisition unit, and a detection unit. The travel route acquisition unit acquires a travel route of the vehicle. The satellite image acquisition unit acquires a satellite image in which the periphery of the travel route acquired by the travel route acquisition unit is captured. The detection unit detects one or more available spaces in the parking lot located around the travel route from the satellite image acquired by the satellite image acquisition unit.
