Abstract
An imaging position determining method includes: an imaging process and an imaging position determination process. The imaging process includes acquiring images by picking up images in a plurality of predetermined imaging positions by an imaging unit. The imaging position determining process includes: comparing an image picked up by the imaging unit in any of the imaging positions with previously stored images; and determining a current imaging position by using a correlation calculated values obtained between the compared images.
