Vehicle control device

Abstract

A vehicle control device has a processor configured to acquire road information for a location outside of a detection range of a sensor mounted in a vehicle, to determine whether reliability of the road information is high or low, based on determining information representing a location with a large degree of variation in road condition, to decide to interpret the road information at a lower resolution when it has been determined that the reliability of the road information is low, and to generate a plan to control the vehicle based on the road information that has been interpreted at lower resolution, when it has been decided to interpret the road information at a lower resolution.
