Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes a controller that acquires images captured by a camera mounted in a vehicle, and a memory that can store the images. The controller acquires travel data on the vehicle for when the image was captured and stores the image in the memory in a case in which the travel data satisfies a predetermined condition.
Claims20
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a controller configured to acquire an image captured by a camera mounted in a vehicle;
- and
- a memory configured to store the image, wherein
- the controller is configured to acquire travel data on the vehicle when the image is captured, and cause the memory to store the image in a case in which the travel data satisfies a predetermined condition,
- the memory includes a list of images that need to be collected, each image being associated with the predetermined condition,
- the list of images that need to be collected is a list of images to be published by a local government to introduce a tourist attraction, and
- the controller is configured to,
- acquire information on a first route to be traveled by the vehicle, and
- in response to determining the first route passing a second route that is different from the first route and enables capturing of one of the images included in the list of images, transmit information requesting capturing of the one of the images to a terminal apparatus of a user inside the vehicle, the terminal apparatus being separate from the camera mounted in the vehicle and configured to communicate with the vehicle via a network.
