Abstract

An OD matrix estimation device includes: an extraction unit that, on the basis of intra-bank OD matrixes that show traffic flow information in respective elevator banks in plural elevator banks and transfer floor information about a transfer floor where transfers among the elevator banks is possible, extracts transfer-related intra-bank OD matrixes having a common transfer floor from among the intra-bank OD matrixes; a matching unit that, from among the transfer-related intra-bank OD matrixes extracted by the extraction unit, combines first transfer intra-bank OD matrixes each including OD data in which the transfer floor is defined as an arrival floor with second transfer intra-bank OD matrixes each including OD data in which the transfer floor is defined as a departure floor to create transfer-related OD data; and an estimation unit that estimates OD data for users who transfer and move among the banks.
