Abstract

A center server includes a receiver that receives position information transmitted from an electric vehicle that can be charged externally, a processing unit and a storage device. The position information is on a charging facility at which the electric vehicle has been charged. The processing unit determines a standard or specification of the charging facility based on the position information received by the receiver, and associates standard/specification information indicating the standard or specification of the charging facility with the position information on the charging facility, and stores the associated information in the storage device.
