Abstract
A moving body position detection system including a unit that acquires dead reckoning navigation information on a moving body; a unit that identifies a position on the moving body on a link based on the dead reckoning navigation information on the moving body; a unit that acquires current position link data on a current position link and neighboring link data on a neighboring link. The current position link is a link on which the moving body position is located, and the neighboring link is connected to the current position link. The system also includes a unit that compares the dead reckoning navigation information on the moving body with the current position link data and with the neighboring link data; and a unit that updates the position of the moving body based on a comparison result of the comparison unit.
