Abstract
The travelling route recognition unit recognizes, based on an image captured by an imaging apparatus capturing an area in the vicinity of the vehicle, a travelling route where the vehicle travels. The classifying unit classifies the travelling route into at least one of a predetermined plurality of road models. The edge point extracting unit extracts edge points necessary for expressing the road model classified by the classifying unit among edge points indicating a boundary of the travelling route recognized by the travelling route recognition unit. The parameter generation unit correlates road model information indicating the road model classified by the classifying unit with the edge points extracted by the edge point extracting unit and generates a travelling route parameter indicating the travelling route recognized by the travelling route recognition unit. The transmission unit transmits the travelling route parameter generated by the parameter generation unit to the server.
