Abstract: A correction generation unit generates an amount of correction for a phase pseudorange between a positioning satellite and each of a plurality of evaluation points, as an amount of evaluation point correction for each of the plurality of evaluation points, based on a carrier phase of a positioning signal observed at each of a plurality of electronic reference points. A reference calculation unit calculates a difference between the phase pseudorange between the positioning satellite and each of the plurality of evaluation points and a geometric distance between the positioning satellite and each of the plurality of evaluation points, as an amount of reference correction for each of the plurality of evaluation points. A ranging error calculation unit removes a bias component due to ambiguity from a difference between the amount of evaluation point correction and the amount of reference correction and thereby calculates a ranging error at each of the plurality of evaluation points.

Abstract: In a positioning augmentation device (40), a plan making unit (84) selects a subset satisfying selection conditions from within a candidate set that is a set of satellites being selection candidates and saves plan data (43) indicating the selected subset in a memory (72). A plan alteration unit (85) acquires integrity information indicating quality of a positioning signal transmitted from each satellite and detects a satellite of which the quality of the positioning signal does not satisfy quality conditions, from within the subset selected by the plan making unit (84), based on the acquired integrity information. The plan alteration unit (85) replaces the detected satellite in the subset with another satellite included in the candidate set.
