Information processing apparatus, information processing system, information processing method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium

An information processing method comprising:

• by a computer,
• acquiring information regarding a position of each of a plurality of communication terminals connected to a network;
• identifying a communication terminal located in a disaster region among the plurality of communication terminals as a first disaster response terminal based on an acquisition result;
• identifying a second disaster response terminal communicating with the first disaster response terminal based on a communication record;
• and
• generating charging data for communication such that charging is not performed for communication from the first disaster response terminal and the second disaster response terminal.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium that records an information processing program causing a computer to perform:

• a process of acquiring information regarding a position of each of a plurality of communication terminals connected to a network;
• a process of identifying a communication terminal located in a disaster region among the plurality of communication terminals as a first disaster response terminal based on an acquisition result;
• a process of identifying a second disaster response terminal communicating with the first disaster response terminal based on a communication record;
• and
• a process of generating charging data for communication such that charging is not performed for communication from the first disaster response terminal and the second disaster response terminal.
