Apparatus for informing parking position and method thereof

A method of controlling a parking position notification apparatus, the method comprising:

• capturing, via a camera, an image of surroundings of a vehicle;
• sensing, via a sensor, movement route information of the vehicle;
• calculating, via a controller, a movement route after the vehicle enters a parking lot based on the movement route information;
• extracting, via the controller, identification information indicated on an immovable object of the parking lot in the image;
• determining, via the controller, a position of the immovable object in the image and a parking position of the vehicle based on the calculated movement route;
• generating, via the controller, map data including the parking position, the position of the immovable object, and the identification information of the immovable object;
• and
• transmitting, via a wireless communication processor, the generated map data to a user terminal.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium recording a program for notifying a parking position applied to a vehicle, the program causing a computer to perform:

• capturing, via a camera, an image of surroundings of a vehicle;
• sensing, via a sensor, movement route information of the vehicle;
• calculating, via a controller, a movement route after the vehicle enters a parking lot based on the movement route information;
• extracting, via the controller, identification information indicated on an immovable object of the parking lot in the image;
• determining, via the controller, a position of the immovable object in the image and a parking position of the vehicle based on the calculated movement route;
• generating, via the controller, map data including the parking position, the position of the immovable object, and the identification information of the immovable object;
• and
• transmitting, via a wireless communication processor, the generated map data to a user terminal.
